Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton met on "The Voice" 10 years ago and are now said to be touching new heights of success in their careers together.
The couple first met while serving as coaches on the US reality show in 2014. At the time, the pop singer was married to Gavin Rossdale while Blake was married to fellow country singer Miranda Lambert.
Following their respective divorces, Gwen and Blake started dating in 2015, and six years later they married. Ahead of their wedding on July 3, 2021, a source said the pair were "ecstatic" to get married in front of their families and friends.

The country star previously joked to USA Today that Gwen was taking charge of the planning as it would be a "pretty classless wedding" if he planned it.
"I want her to do all of that stuff and handle it because it's going to be great," he said. "She's in the middle of planning the thing, and she's always so mindful … of me. She's like, 'Hey, I don't want to just take this thing over.' I think she's having a blast doing it. I mean, I know she's having a blast doing it."
Since getting married, Gwen and Blake have collaborated on a number of projects including a new track called "Purple Irises" which reportedly set a new record on "Billboard's Country Digital Song Sales" chart. During an interview with Jimmy Kimmel Live, 54-year-old Gwen revealed that Blake had gifted her an exquisite Emerald ring ahead of Valentine's Day.
Last year, Gwen shared a social media video to celebrate her relationship with her husband and said that while they have different lifestyles, they are still a good match for one another. She shared a montage of clips of herself and Blake, with a caption over the video saying: "When you're with a guy from Oklahoma who rides tractors, and you're from Orange County, but it just works."

She added: "Having someone that, we think the same about things yet we're so different, like he's watching football and doing his stuff that he does and I'm like putting make-up on."
Talking about how they first met, Gwen said it was like a "miracle" as she explained: "God just put us together. It was one of those miracle situations where I didn't see it coming. I was like: ‘I’m gonna wake up every day, I’m gonna have a coffee, I’m gonna take care of my kids and then I’m gonna go to bed.’ Like I’m never gonna kiss anyone. I thought my life was over and then Blake Shelton’s like: ‘Hey. I’m Blake Shelton.’"
