Default Cracking spackle around shower stall...ideas?

I have about 1/2 to 3/4 inch gap from where the wall board ends and the top
of my shower stal. When painting the room last fall, I filled in the gap
with spackle in several layers. Now, it is cracked where the wall meets the
spackle. I also caulked the area. Any suggestions on how to not have it
crack. Thanks

Yep, silicone or latex caulking would have prevented that problem.
