If you want to ignore something or pretend it doesn’t exist, you can turn away from it and not look at it. But if you want to deal with it and be honest about it, you look right at it, or face it.
Gwen Stefani and Gavin Rossdale have been together for 14 years. That is a pretty long relationship, and let’s face it, it’s an eternity in show business, with so many celebrity relationships ending in heartbreak.
