Blake Shelton Finally Reacts to Rumors About His Marriage to Gwen Stefani

Divorce rumors are nothing new in Hollywood, often catching couples off guard — though on rare occasions, speculation does turn out to be true.

Blake Shelton recently addressed the latest buzz surrounding his marriage. The singer spoke candidly about reports claiming he and his wife, Gwen Stefani, were heading for a divorce. Shelton has previously shared insight into what keeps his marriage happy, including how they balance career-family life demands.

Blake Shelton Addresses Online Divorce Rumors

Shelton opened up during the January 10–11 weekend show, which he co-hosted alongside Lon Helton. During the conversation, Helton remarked on how difficult it can be to search for Shelton's name online because of the sheer number of fabricated stories circulating.

Shelton responded, "It's amazing, in October, I started noticing these stories about Blake & Gwen going through a divorce. I told her, I see pictures of Gwen & I that look real, but I know I don't own that shirt. I don’t believe anything I see on the internet anymore."

Fans Point to Blake Shelton's Familiar Pattern

As Shelton addressed the speculation, fans quickly took to the comments with unfiltered takes and blunt observations. One commenter offered a cynical view of celebrity relationships, "Once you start seeing the rumors, they usually end up divorced."

Another appeared unconvinced by any reassurances, suggesting trouble ahead, "This is usually the one before the fallout....deny deny breakup 🤷‍♀️." Others revisited Shelton's past, with one fan pointing out, "Those rumors are what destroyed his marriage to Miranda."

A similar sentiment followed from another user, "He also said the same thing when he was in the middle of a divorce with Miranda 🤷‍♀️." One particularly blunt comment dismissed the current discussion altogether, "Who cares the best one he had was Miranda. Apparently he doesn't know how to treat a woman [sic]."

Ten Years Together – Their Bond Remains Strong

The pair started their relationship a decade ago after crossing paths on the set of "The Voice." They tied the knot in 2021 and have continued to show a strong bond, even as speculation about a possible split surfaced during the December holidays in 2025.

An insider was quick to shut down the claims, "There is no truth to the split rumors. They've just been juggling demanding schedules. When they are together, it's just so obvious how solid they are."

The source added that there are times when the couple is able to spend a great deal of time together as a family. The duo truly values those moments, while at other points their attention shifts more heavily toward work commitments.

According to the insider, both are at stages in their careers where they still find genuine fulfillment in what they do and are not willing to step away from it. Balancing everything is not always easy, the source noted, as they have many responsibilities to manage.

However, this is simply part of navigating family life when both partners are actively pursuing their careers.

Looking Ahead – Embracing an Unplanned Future

Meanwhile, reflecting on their ten-year milestone, Shelton said, "It honestly does [feel like time is flying by]." He went on to note that while 10 years is a significant stretch of time, the relationship still feels fresh and exciting to him.

"I feel like that might be the key to happiness, is that it feels just as exciting and new and happy," he divulged. Despite their demanding schedules filled with new music releases and promotional commitments, Blake Shelton emphasized that his family remains his top priority.

He is a stepfather to Kingston, Zuma, and Apollo. In the summer of 2025, he was looking ahead to the coming months and shared his excitement.

He said, "I'm looking forward to the kids being out of school. Gwen and I pretty much have our summers wide open. We both have a few shows here and there, but nothing that's tying us down to keep us from going and doing something fun. We don't have any plans — which is our favorite 'plan.'"

Aside from their kids, Gwen Stefani's family got a little furrier in 2024! The "Don't Speak" singer and "The Voice" coach welcomed an adorable new addition to the Stefani-Shelton household — a fluffy kitten named Corn Shelton.

And yes! The cat proudly took the last name of Stefani's husband. The excited cat mom took to social media to share the news, posting a short, heartwarming montage of Corn's journey to becoming the newest member of their family.

Stefani revealed that the little kitten was "so sick" and "hardly alive" when he first showed up at their home. But with plenty of love and nurturing, she nursed the ailing stray back to health. "We're so grateful that he's a part of our family," she wrote alongside the video, which was flooded with sweet fan comments.

One follower cheered on the pop star with a simple, “Good job, Gwen. ❤❤.” Another fan gushed, “Aww… kitties are adorable 🥰.” But it was a comment pointing out just how lucky Corn is to be in the Stefani-Shelton clan that stole the show. “This baby hit the jackpit [sic],” wrote an observant fan.

The love didn't stop there—fans showered Stefani and Shelton with praise for their compassionate gesture. "This is precious, omg you guys are the best people ever 🥺❤️," one admirer wrote.

Another user, moved by the story, shared, "Awww, this makes me so happy that you saved him and gave him LOVE ...I do my best to save kitties in LA." There were even comments like, "God led him to the right house 😉❤️," which speaks volumes about the magical connection between Corn and his new family.

Stefani, long known for her love of animals, has demonstrated her dedication through the care she provides for Corn.
