Gwen Stefani & Blake Shelton Segue From Crooning Together To Canoodling: Inside Their Sizzling Romance [Video]


Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton have continued to play the role of the couple-in-question on the celebrity romance list. Are they doing more than just sharing coaching tips behind those big chairs on The Voice, or did Gwen’s divorce from Gavin Rossdale and Blake’s split from Miranda Lambert lead to love?

Stefani and Shelton truly are in love, a source told E! News. And, with the relationship gone public through PDA, they apparently decided it’s pointless to try to hide behind The Voice backstage props anymore.

From hugging on broadcasts to holding hands in Nashville, Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton are showing that, as the source shared with E! News, they’re an “extremely happy” couple.

“Many of Gwen’s friends love how happy she has been over these past few months, and they believe she found love again,” confirmed the insider. “The media craze just annoys her because of the way it can affect kids.”

With Stefani being a concerned mom, Shelton has been alleviating her worries about how he will interact with her children by making the meeting “very natural and healthy,” added the source. The kids are already aware that something’s different since their parents divorce, so Blake has sought to keep it relaxed in their encounters.

As far as Mindy Mann goes, the family nanny who allegedly caused so many problems, Stefani wants to move forward rather than dwell on the past, the insider revealed.

“Gavin and Gwen are not on bad terms. She is just ready to move on with her life. [Stefani] hasn’t spoken to the nanny for some time, that’s a chapter she ended in her life and she is ready to begin her next one.”

As for rumors that Shelton and Stefani began their romance prior to their divorces, the insider told E! News that is not true. Allegedly their relationship began just as a platonic friendship, with Stefani jokingly calling Shelton her “work husband.”

When did the platonic status change to passion? With Gwen Stefani theorizing that the time was right, she and the country crooner gradually shifted to becoming a couple. But, Stefani wants to play it low-key for the holidays.

“It’s very likely they will be together for some parts of it, but Gwen still wants to have the holidays as normal as possible because of her kids,” the source shared. “So Gwen may do a more traditional holiday with Gavin when their kids open up the presents, but it’s clear to her children they are not with each other in any romantic capacity.”

As for Blake Shelton, he is mighty perky in discussing his relationship with Stefani, reported ET.

Recently, Gwen joined Blake at a Los Angeles studio and when questioned about his romance with Stefani, Shelton was chipper in his response.

“Going good!” revealed Shelton.

The duo also were also spotted together at a Barneys New York private dinner along with Jennifer Aniston, Kris Jenner, Courteney Cox, Katy Perry, Nicole Richie and Chelsea Handler.

“Gwen and Blake seemed really happy,” a party insider revealed. “They were hanging together inside the party and near each other the whole time.”

In addition, Shelton recently gave Stefani a tour of his new, almost-finished mansion near his own hometown of Ada, Oklahoma.

“Blake gave Gwen her biggest taste of country life,” said one of Shelton’s pals to ET. “They ate home cooking at his favorite diners and Blake took her to his new lake house. There’s no Starbucks around here. If she’s still around after that then it must be serious!”

Yet another source told People that Shelton and Stefani seem to be truly in love.

Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton were spotted holding hands at a recent bash, with Shelton taking care of his girlfriend in ways such as ensuring she had something to sip. The 39-year-old country crooner and 46-year-old pop star arrived together.

“He seemed very smitten,” summed up the source. “Gwen was giddy and very flirty. They were both happy.”
