Gwen Stefani & Blake Shelton Don’t Need Mistletoe For ‘Very Affectionate’ PDA As Country Crooner Considers Marriage

Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton have discovered what a difference a few months can make. Gwen went from sorrow over her divorce from Gavin Rossdale to can’t-stop-grinning delight from her romance with Blake. Meanwhile, Shelton suffered through his own divorce to Miranda Lambert before finding joy with Stefani. And for those who thought it was just a showmance for The Voice ratings, the singers have been proving them wrong by piling on the PDA.

Most recently, Stefani and Shelton were spotted being “very affectionate” after he persuaded her to visit his hometown, revealed E! News.

Dining at a restaurant, Gwen and Blake provided onlookers with displays of their affection, an insider told E! Online.

“They sat next to each other at the table and were very affectionate. They kept caressing each other,” the source revealed.

As the Inquisitr reported, Stefani and Shelton also recently treated fans to an adorable clip showing a kissing marathon in matching outfits by posting it on social media.

“Merry Christmas,” tweeted the pop star.

Will they spend Christmas together? An insider revealed to E! that Stefani is heading home for Christmas to be with her children, and Shelton is supportive about her decision.

“Blake is extremely supportive of Gwen and her kids’ transition. Blake is really great with kids and loves being around children. He has a lot of patience.”

As for New Year’s Eve, that’s when it gets interesting. Shelton and Stefani are planning to turn seeing in the New Year into a time for romance just for the two of them, according to Hollywood Life.

Because Gavin will be taking care of the children for the holiday, Blake and Gwen can rock and roll as they please without taking time out for her trio of sons Kingston, Zuma and Apollo.

“Gwen and Blake are planning for a very romantic New Year’s Eve,” a source shared with Hollywood Life. “Christmas is going to be all about her kids, but New Year’s Eve will be adults-only time. They’re looking forward to celebrating with friends and getting wild and, of course, spending private time back in their hotel suite.”

With all this steamy romance, would the country crooner consider the next step? Yes, an insider revealed to Hollywood Life.

“Blake is actually considering marriage again. He can definitely see himself marrying Gwen. It’s not a far-fetched idea whatsoever.”

And it just seems like Stefani and Shelton can’t keep their hands off each other, an insider told E! News.

As the time goes by, the relationship gets more intense.

“Gwen and Blake are steaming up,” confirmed the insider. “They have been having some great times with each other the past few months and are on the same page of life now. Blake is extremely supportive of Gwen and her kids’ transition. Blake is really great with kids and loves being around children. He has a lot of patience.”

The couple enjoyed a visit to Nashville for the engagement party for RaeLynn and her fiance Josh Davis, and a source told E! that both Gwen and Blake were popular with the crowd.

“[Stefani and Shelton] were extremely friendly to everyone at the party and fit in just great,” the insider added. “They acted normally and were very down-to-earth, regular people. Both of them together were the life of the party. They didn’t show too much PDA, but you can tell they were a couple and very into each other.”

Blake assisted in planning the party, and took time to toast Raelynn, a source told E! News.

“Blake and Gwen were great. They looked happy. They were having a great time and dressed in spirit,” commented the source. “Blake gave a nice little toast to Raelynn and congratulated his close friend… what a friend would do for another friend.”
