Upon tying the knot, Stefani shared that being married to her husband evoked memories of the various seasons they spent together on “The Voice.” These stages included the various phases of their friendship and relationship.

“The best part about working with my wife is that I never have to be apart from her,” Shelton also proclaimed. He described Gwen Stefani as the least competitive person, adding that being on a competition show with her was the most fantastic scenario he could be in.

However, in October 2022, the country star announced that he was leaving “The Voice” after season 23 ended. He said the show, which he was in for 12 years, changed his life for the better and that it would always feel like home to him. So, in 2023, as the season concluded, it marked the end of Shelton’s time on “The Voice.”

Shelton and Stefani relished working together on “The Voice,” but there have been times when they have been apart due to their professional commitment. When Blake announced he was leaving “The Voice,” Stefani said her husband just wanted to have more time because doing two seasons of the show and touring took a big part of his year.

On January 23, 2024, Shelton shared a picture on Instagram alongside his friend Lauren Alaina. The two were on “Barmaggedon,” the television game show together.

Shelton’s fans noticed that it wasn’t Stefani who was by his side, and they cautioned him that he may lose his wife. “You’re going to lose your wife. Gwen is trusting you,” pointed out one fan, while another warned, “Watch out! You can lose Gwen….” More fans chimed in, with someone advising Shelton, “You need to start spending time with your wife before you lose her.”
