Gwen Stefani treated her three sons to a day at Six Flags Magic Mountain in LA on Thursday as her dad requested - and was granted - a restraining order against an obsessed fan who's targeting his daughter.

TMZ reported Friday that Dennis Stefani has been granted a protection order after he filed documents claiming a man named Richard Portnoy visited his house and Gwen's home three times since February.

In one creepy encounter, Dennis claimed he came face to face with the fan, who then read him a letter about his feelings for the 45-year-old singer.

According to TMZ, Dennis filed the documents because he and his wife Patricia are worried the stalker fan might turn up at their home, or at Gwen's, again.

But the singer seemed determined to put the problem to one side and focus on her kids with husband Gavin Rossdale.

The No Doubt frontwoman appeared relaxed as she strolled through the theme park in a red and white plaid long-sleeved shirt, dark khaki gaucho capri pants gathered at the knee and white sneakers.

She wore her blonde hair tied back and tucked under a baseball cap and kept her sunglasses on. The Don't Speak hit maker alternated between carrying her youngest Apollo in a baby sling and pushing him in a stroller

Dennis also claims in the papers that Portnoy has gained access to information about where his daughter has medical treatments and attempted to contact her on March 16.

Portnoy has also left letters and gifts for the No Doubt frontwoman at her parents' home.
