Read our privacy policy Gwen Stefani has revealed that she “never” thought she would kiss anyone again before she met now-husband, Blake Shelton. “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,” she explained, adding: “I thought my life was over and then Blake Shelton’s like, ‘Hey. I’m Blake Shelton.’” Stefani added that Shelton is her “best friend” and that they are on the same “plane when it comes to morals”. You can’t even imagine the similarities in our divorce.” Shelton and Stefani got engaged in October 2020, and got married in July 2021 in an intimate ceremony at Shelton’s Oklahoma ranch.
