A Unique Take on Marriage

Gwen Stefani has dropped a surprising truth about her marriage to Blake Shelton, revealing that they don't navigate their love life alone.

In a recent appearance on "The Drew Barrymore Show," the iconic singer shared some of the best relationship advice she’s ever received: "Make sure you have a third party." While delivering this sage advice, she looked skywards, seemingly referencing God, earning applause from the captivated studio audience.

From Heartbreak to Happiness

The couple began their romantic journey back in 2015 after meeting on the set of "The Voice," both fresh from painful divorces. Blake had just filed for divorce from Miranda Lambert, while Gwen was dealing with the fallout from her 13-year marriage to Gavin Rossdale, following his highly publicized affair.

A Love Story Built on Resilience

Stefani, now 55, and Shelton, 48, got engaged in October 2020 with an extravagant proposal featuring an eight-carat diamond ring valued at approximately $500,000. Their intimate wedding took place in July 2021 at Blake's picturesque Oklahoma ranch.

Reflecting on her past struggles, Stefani expressed how meeting Shelton felt like a "second chance at life." She opened up about the wreckage of her previous marriage, saying, "When my family fell apart, it was a catastrophe... But God put this other person there to love me."

Garden of Love

Stefani also shared a touching story behind her song "Purple Irises," which symbolizes their love. During the pandemic, she and Shelton discovered an old building on their land that featured resilient purple irises, surviving despite the passage of time. This inspired her to pen the heartfelt track, capturing the beauty and fragility of true love.

Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton's journey shows that love can blossom in even the most unlikely circumstances, proving that with a little help from above, anything is possible.
