Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani are calling each other 'husband' and 'wife'; have they already tied the knot?
Rumors about Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani being married or being on the verge of tying the knot appear on the internet every other day. The rumor storm was again roused recently when fans started speculating that the music couple could already be married since they refer to each other as 'husband' and 'wife' quite frequently.
The rumor started doing the rounds once again after Stefani recently posted a picture of herself with her brother Todd’s wife Jen on one of her Instagram stories during the couple’s Florida vacation. She captioned the picture "sister-in-law" which clearly sent tongues flying.
However, a lot of her social media followers mistook Jen to be Shelton's sister Endy. And since Gwen called Jen her “sister-in-law” in the caption, fans went wild thinking Shelton and Stefani did end up getting married.
However, contrary to popular belief, the 'it' music couple still hasn't gotten hitched. “Gwen and Blake haven’t gotten secretly married, but they’re always joking around and calling each other husband and wife,” a source told Hollywood Life.
“Gwen and Blake have spoken about getting married, and it’s something that they definitely do want to do one day, but they’re really happy with the way things are right now, and they’ve both been married before so they don’t see the point of rushing things.”
However, the couple, who always look very much in love, have a great thing going between them, and even their kids have no reason to complain about their parents' relationship status. “Neither Gwen or Blake want to jinx what they have,” the source added.
“It’s so perfect as it is, and they’re aware that sometimes getting married can add extra pressure to a relationship, and they don’t want to risk that right now. Plus, their schedules are so busy, that logistically it would be kind of a headache trying to arrange a wedding, so they’d rather wait till Gwen’s residency is over and take their time so they can do it properly and plan something really beautiful and special when the time is right.”
Moreover, the couple has made it extremely clear that both of them do not want to rush into marriage since both Shelton and Stefani have had bad experiences from their past relationships. “They want to take their time and do things properly,” the source continued. “They want to make sure their love lasts forever.”
The new speculations about Stefani and Shelton having tied the knot comes after recently Shelton took to his Twitter to let the world know how dedicated he is about being there for his girlfriend. “So far @gwenstefani has performed 3 shows in Las Vegas. I have been to 3…” he wrote, adding the hashtag #stalker.
Blake has been by Stefani's side ever since she kicked off her Vegas concert on June 27. The two fell in love with each other as they walked the red carpet together. Stefani also shared some behind the curtain moments on her Instagram where she was seen placing a kiss on Shelton. During the concert, Stefani also sang 'Make Me Like You' which she confessed was about Shelton.
Appearing on Jimmy Kimmel Live she said, “I see a lot of admiring eyes on my sparkles. I know, it’s ridiculous. You don’t know what it’s like to wear a cowgirl costume right in front of Blake Shelton. It’s like my fantasy come true.” Shelton has also opened up about how Stefani has helped him get through his divorce from Miranda Lambert.
"When I was going through my divorce, and just hit rock bottom, just like anybody does when they go through something that devastating. It's a miracle that I met somebody that was going through the same exact thing that I was at the exact same moment in time," he said in the interview.
