Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton remain one of Hollywood’s most beloved couples. After nearly ten years together, this pair continues to prove that their love can withstand the test of time. Both stars experienced public ups and downs before they met, but their relationship has only strengthened over the years.
Despite coming from completely different worlds, Gwen and Blake’s romance blossomed after they first met as coaches on «The Voice». Even after Blake left the long-running show in 2022, the couple continued to stay in the spotlight, participating in high-profile events and easily dispelling breakup rumors—including memorable moments on the red carpet, such as the CMT Music Awards.
Let’s take a look at how Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton’s love story has developed over the years.
Before they met, both Blake and Gwen were married to other people. Blake married Miranda Lambert in 2011, but in July 2015, they shocked country music fans by announcing their divorce. Meanwhile, Gwen married Gavin Rossdale in 2002 but also announced their separation in the summer of 2015. Their situation was a bit more complicated, as they had three children (Kingston, Zuma, and Apollo).
It was clear that both Blake and Gwen were deeply saddened by their breakups, but in the fall, they returned to work on the ninth season of «The Voice». This was only Gwen’s second time as a coach on the show, and she and Blake hadn’t had the chance to get to know each other well the first time. However, this time they had a shared theme to bond over. They channeled their heartfelt experiences into a close friendship that quickly blossomed into a romantic relationship.
For several weeks, rumors of Gwen and Blake’s romance circulated in magazines and online, but they were in no rush to comment on the reports. However, in mid-November 2015, they finally stepped out together. On November 4, Blake performed at the CMA Awards in Nashville. Gwen wasn’t with him at the show, but they were later photographed at the after-party—holding hands, making it clear that things were serious between them.
Once it became clear that Gwen and Blake were a couple, they gradually began to showcase their relationship publicly. In addition to flirting with each other during live shows of «The Voice» that fall, they also attended an Arizona Cardinals game at the end of December. Gwen even posted a photo from the game on social media! During this time, they started introducing each other to their friends and family.
Gwen and Blake attended their first official event as a couple in mid-February 2016. They weren’t shy about showing affection at Clive Davis’s pre-Grammy gala on Valentine’s Day. Gwen wore a red dress and was photographed sitting on Blake’s lap at this high-profile event.
The couple made their official red carpet debut just a couple of weeks later—at one of the most significant events of the year. Blake accompanied Gwen to the Vanity Fair Oscar party, where all the most famous and high-profile celebrities gather. They walked the red carpet together and looked like the perfect couple in the photos.
In 2016, Blake and Gwen also began releasing new music about their breakups and how they found each other. Gwen released her song «Make Me Like You» in February 2016 and didn’t hesitate to admit that it was about Blake. The lyrics talk about finding the right person when you least expect it—or even when you don’t want to—after a failed romance. Blake then released his song «Came Here To Forget» on March 8, 2016. Although he didn’t write this track, it clearly reflected what he was going through, as the lyrics are about two people coming together to forget their past romances
