Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton got engaged in October 2020
Shelton popped the question to his longtime girlfriend in October 2020, as Stefani revealed in an Instagram announcement at the time. Later, the No Doubt singer revealed that Shelton proposed in Oklahoma during a family gathering at their new home. Her oldest son, Kingston, even helped Shelton out by distracting Stefani and luring her into a room where Shelton waited with the ring.
She shared the touching story of the proposal during an appearance on The Kelly Clarkson Show.
“I walked in and my son was sitting right by this fireplace, and Blake basically was getting down on his knees to do a fire and he goes, ‘Hey, can you look in that cabinet over there and get me a fire starter?’” Stefani revealed. “So I opened the cabinet and there was a ring in a box and I was like, ‘Ahhh! What?! Are you serious?!’”
Not long after the engagement, rumors regarding Shelton and Stefani’s wedding plans began to swirl. The couple kept the details mostly under wraps, which led many fans to speculate about when they might tie the knot.

Stefani and Shelton wed at Shelton’s ranch in Oklahoma
Shelton and Stefani stans can finally celebrate because the stars’ marriage is now official. The couple reportedly filed for a marriage license in early July, as TMZ reported, which set off wedding rumors once again. According to TMZ’s report, the Oklahoma license would expire in 10 days, which meant that Stefani and Shelton would likely tie the knot very soon.

It’s not clear exactly how many guests attended the private wedding, but the photos did show Stefani’s parents, Dennis Stefani and Patty Flynn, as well as other attendees boarding a bus to the chapel.
Wedding bells finally rang five years after their relationship began
