Los Angeles, California: Music power couple Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton have opened up about the secret to their successful marriage. Stefani recently appeared on “The Drew Barrymore Show” where she shared the best advice she had received about love. The key to their happiness, according to Stefani, is having a “third party” involved in their marriage.
Stefani, 55, and Shelton, 48, first met in 2015 on the set of “The Voice” when they were both newly divorced. Shelton had ended his marriage with Miranda Lambert, while Stefani parted ways with Gavin Rossdale amid allegations of infidelity. The pair announced their engagement in October 2020 and tied the knot in July 2021 at Shelton’s ranch in Oklahoma.
During the interview on “The Drew Barrymore Show,” Stefani pointed to the sky, seemingly referencing God, as she shared this advice. The couple has been very open about their relationship, with Stefani expressing her gratitude for Shelton coming into her life after her previous marriage fell apart.
Stefani, who shares three sons with Rossdale, revealed that she wrote a song called “Purple Irises” about their love story. The couple bonded over gardening during the pandemic and found some purple irises on their Oklahoma property, which inspired the song. Stefani described the experience as finding true love and the insecurities that come with not wanting to lose it.
The duo’s relationship has been a source of inspiration for many fans, with Stefani emphasizing the importance of having a third party involved in a marriage. This advice has evidently played a significant role in the success of their union, especially after both went through difficult divorces prior to finding one another.
Overall, Stefani and Shelton’s story serves as a reminder that love can come when you least expect it, and that having a strong support system, whether it be from friends, family, or a higher power, can be crucial in maintaining a healthy and thriving relationship. Their journey together showcases the power of resilience, healing, and the transformative nature of true love.
