Spotted: Gavin Rossdale and Kingston’s Errand Run

Fame

Day out with dad!

Gavin Rossdale gently leads son Kingston James McGregor, 4, in the right direction while running errands in Los Angeles on Wednesday.

Rossdale — who is preparing for a Bush reunion — admits touring is no longer an easy feat since welcoming sons Kingston and Zuma, 2, with wife Gwen Stefani, but says keeping connected is of utmost importance.

“I’m not going to be one of those dads who are always away and doesn’t have any contact with home. I’m the opposite. I like that nomadic lifestyle and bringing the kids along is cool — they love it,” he explains.

Emily Procter: There’s Only One Baby on Board!

Make no mistake about it, Emily Procter — who’s expecting her first child with boyfriend Paul Bryan in December — isn’t seeing double.

“The most common question I get is, ‘Are you having twins?’ and when I say no they’re like, ‘Are you sure?’” the CSI: Miami actress, 41, jokes with E! Online about her burgeoning belly.

“The other one I get is, ‘Is your due date wrong?’ But no, I still have three months.”

And while she’s not willing to reveal the baby’s sex — or the name the couple have chosen — Procter isn’t shy about admitting her sweet tooth is as strong as ever!

“No pickles and ice-cream,” she says. “Fruit. Lots and lots of fruit. Lemon ice-cream, lemonade, lemon anything.”
