Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani’s Troubled Marriage

Lately, Gwen and Blake have had some rocky times in their marriage. The couple even spent New Year’s Eve apart. Shelton was performing at a casino between Oklahoma and Texas. While Stefani was in Las Vegas, Nevada. It also seems as though the two’s busy schedules are keeping them distant. Gwen just finished a season of The Voice, and Blake has been filming his show Barmaggedon. Even though Blake’s show focuses on drinking and bar games, the country singer has announced that he is trying to quit or cut back on his alcohol intake. On top of this, Shelton is opening a bar in Las Vegas for country singers. He wanted there to be another place for country singers to try and get their start aside from Nashville.

Stepdad To Three

When marrying Gwen Stefani in 2021, Blake Shelton did not only bring her into his family, he brought her three sons into it as well. Blake recently spoke on the pressure of trying to be a good role model for them.

“I take enjoyment in all of it, I also stress out a lot about it. It is important to me, and I don’t want to be the guy that advised them to do the wrong thing somehow.”

According to American Songwriter, Blake takes the stepdad role very seriously.

“I take that stuff, it’s about the only thing I do take pretty serious in my life. Obviously, everybody out there watching that’s got a kid knows what I’m talking about. There’s not that one thing that I can put my finger on, there’s things every day.”

The boys have also made Blake learn things about himself.

“They’ve taught me something about myself that I never knew: I’m more than just a country singer or a goofy guy. I’m someone they actually lean on, and that’s not a responsibility that I ever had and not something that I ever considered even being into. It’s a different kind of self-worth. Maybe it’s the opposite of self-worth because you put yourself way down on the rung, and they move up ahead of you.”

Blake also relates to parents for wanting them to be better than yourself.

It does not seem Blake minds being a stepfather at all. It seems as though it brings him joy and pride as it does most parents. However, if the couple decides to call it quits, he may not be their stepdad much longer. This does not mean he will be out of the children’s lives, but he won’t legally be tied to them.
