The pair leaned on each other during that time and found a real connection. Big fans of Stefani probably never would have dreamed she’d end up with a country singer, but the pair seems pretty perfect. By November of 2015, Shelton and Stefani were officially a couple.
The following year, the couple made their big red carpet debut at the Vanity Fair Oscars after-party. Shelton told Billboard that Gwen saved him.
“Gwen saved my life. Who else on earth could understand going through a high-profile divorce from another musician? You can’t even imagine the similarities in our divorces.”
A couple of years later, the couple is still going strong when Shelton lands the coveted title of People’s Sexiest Man Alive. The country star credited Stefani for convincing him to accept the honor.
“She goes, ‘Listen to me, you’re going to regret this for the rest of your life if you don’t take this gift and just live in the moment.”
The Oklahoma native has also really hit it off with Stefani’s sons, Kingston, Zuma, and Apollo. He’s stepped into the unofficial “stepdad” role seamlessly. The couple currently splits time between Shelton’s Oklahoma ranch and California where the boys are based and of course…where The Voice is filmed.
