Gwen Stefani Confirms Marriage to Blake Shelton With Photos of Their "Dream" Wedding

Gwen Stefani Confirms Marriage to Blake Shelton With Photos of Their "Dream" Wedding

  • Two days after saying "I do," Gwen Stefani took to social media to share a glimpse inside her and Blake Shelton's "dream" wedding ceremony.
  • Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton‘s latest collab is their most personal yet.

    The musical duo officially tied the knot on the “God’s Country” singer’s ranch in Oklahoma on July 3. For the occasion, which came eight months after Stefani and Shelton got engaged, the couple was surrounded by loved ones. 

    Two days after the ceremony, on July 5, Stefani, who shares three kids with ex Gavin Rossdale, took to her Instagram to share a glimpse inside the wedding festivities.

    “July 3rd 2021 [heart emoji] gx,” the “Cool” artist captioned a boomerang video, showing herself in a floral robe and veil with an oversized white bow. The bride, whose makeup was perfected with a red lip, tagged Shelton in the video and added a heart emoji and hands praying emoji. 

    Stefani later revealed three more romantic photos from the big day, tagging Vera Wang as the designer of her strapless wedding gown. “dreams do come [heart],” the singer wrote. “@blakeshelton i love you.” The pictures showed the newlyweds posing at his ranch at sunset, and the pair kissing as they stood in front of their elegant tiered wedding cake.

    Her stylist Mariel Haenn wrote on Instagram, “Couldn’t be happier for this union! And family! I love you.”

    Shelton, 45, and Stefani, 51, have been each other’s sweet escape since November 2015, when The Voice coaches officially started dating. As the pair—who first met on the set of the NBC competition series—would later share, they formed a deep connection following their respective divorces.

    “It’s not something anybody could’ve seen coming, besides God I guess, because it doesn’t look like it would make sense,” Shelton, who split from Miranda Lambert in July 2015, told CMT’s Katie Cook the following year about his relationship with Stefani. “All I can tell you is that it does. It just makes the most perfect sense for us and where we’re at in our lives.”

    He added, “I tell people all the time, ‘Gwen saved my life last year.’ She did.”

    Shelton shared a similar quote when announcing his engagement to Stefani. “Hey @gwenstefani thanks for saving my 2020… And the rest of my life,” he wrote in an October 2020 Instagram post. “I love you. I heard a YES!”

    Braunwyn WindhamBurke Confirms She's Dating Former RHOC Star Fernanda Rocha

    Braunwyn WindhamBurke Confirms She's Dating Former RHOC Star Fernanda Rocha

  • After announcing her departure from The Real Housewives of Orange County, Braunwyn Windham-Burke exclusively announced she's dating a new woman to E! News. Find out all the details.

    Starting a new chapter. 

    After it was announced that Braunwyn Windham-Burke would not be returning to The Real Housewives of Orange County on June 15, the mother of seven is ready to break her silence on another RHOC alum. And no, it’s not Kelly Dodd

    Windham-Burke exclusively spoke with E! News at the GUARDaHEART Foundation’s Unmasked Heart Disease event over the weekend and confirmed her relationship with RHOC season six star Fernanda Rocha.

    “We have been hanging out,” Braunwyn gushed. “We are close and she’s been an amazing support to me. I’m glad I met her. I will say this: There have been some rumors about when we went from being friends to a little bit more than friends. It was after she got divorced so there’s nothing salacious like that happening. We’ve been hanging out for awhile. We didn’t become more than friends until recently. She’s definitely special.”

    While Braunwyn was hesitant to put a label on their love, she stated that they are “definitely dating.”

    Braunwyn was previously linked to girlfriend Kris after coming out as a lesbian in December 2020; the couple split in April 2021. 

    “She is a very steady, very spiritual, very level-headed force,” Braunwyn ravved about “caring and nurturing” fitness instructor girlfriend Fernanda.

    “I have a tendency to spiral into over the top emotions as anyone in a reality show should, and she brings me back down to center,” Braunwyn continued. “She’s really brought out a softer side of me. I’ve been in the same relationship for most of my life so she’s taught me about compromise and meeting someone in the middle. I haven’t really dated much because I’ve been with Sean [Burke] since I was 18. But she’s just been patient and understanding and we’re having a great time.”

    As for her RHOC exit, Braunwyn noted that she is still “confused” after the news. “I would have loved to showcase a healthy, lesbian relationship,” the star explained. “I think it’s way past time.”

    Braunwyn previously made waves with her statement that she would be “heartbroken” if husband Sean fell for someone else, but today she hopes he also finds happiness.

    “I would love for Sean to find someone,” Braunwyn clarified. “It’s one of the reasons that we know we have to go in a different direction, but we’ll always be a family…What I have with Fernanda is what I want him to have with someone else. It took me awhile to get there, but we’ve been together for 26 years.”

    Braunwyn’s coming out affected her marriage: “Regardless if I’m gay or straight, it was still hard,” she continued. “There was a grieving process. We’re working through it and we’re on the other side of a lot of things.”

    Yet, there is no rush for Braunwyn and Sean to divorce.

    “There’s no reason to,” the former RHOC star added. “We’re not fighting. We’re getting along…We have been together 26 years so we’re not in any rush to get divorced. Eventually, maybe one of us will want to get remarried and of course that would happen. For me, this is the reality version of modern family. We are creating something that we haven’t seen. You can be married outside the box and have it work as long as you’re happy.”
