Blake Shelton Caught On Daddy Duty Again With Gwen Stefani’s Boys
It’s only a matter of time before Blake Shelton becomes a full-fledged member of Gwen Stefani’s family.
The Voice coach was just spotted spending another holiday with Stefani and her adorable boys. When will they finally tie the knot and make Shelton an official stepdad?
According to OK Magazine, Shelton’s Labor Day weekend included some quality time with Stefani and her sons – Kingston, 10, Zuma, eight, and Apollo, two.
The family spent the day at Shelton’s sprawling ranch in Tishomingo, Oklahoma, where they enjoyed some sun on the water.
“Good time,” Stefani wrote alongside a Snapchat photo of Shelton driving a boat on the lake.

Stefani’s boys rode in the back of the boat while Shelton drove. Stefani’s youngest boy even sat on Shelton’s lap at one point during the boating venture.
The Labor Day festivities follow what has been a summer apart for the couple, who took full advantage of the break.
Before the fun boat ride, E! Online is reporting that Stefani shared a photo on Instagram of her and Shelton relaxing together on a couch. The two wore matching Hawaiian shirts for the photo op and looked completely relaxed in each other’s company.
Stefani is coming off the end of her This Is What the Truth Feels Like tour, which featured a stop in Dallas where Shelton joined her onstage for their duet, “Go Ahead and Break My Heart.”
The new photos also reveal just how close Shelton is getting to Stefani’s children.
Thankfully, Stefani’s ex-husband, Gavin Rossdale, probably won’t mind that Shelton is quickly becoming a father figure to the boys.
After all, reports hint that Shelton and Rossdale recently resolved their issues and agreed that the well-being of the children was in their best interest. Based on their Labor Day weekend activities, it’s safe to say that Shelton is taking his step-dad responsibilities to heart.
At the same time, Shelton and Stefani are clearly still madly in love with each other. The only real question remaining is when the lovebirds will officially exchange vows and start their new lives together.
According to In Touch Weekly, a marriage might be just around the corner.
An inside source told the outlet that Blake Shelton already bought Stefani a lavish wedding gift. Instead of opting for a more traditional present, the country crooner built Stefani a tropical mansion on the banks of Oklahoma’s Lake Texoma.
The Hawaiian style mansion includes three separate huts, complete with thatched roofs, that will serve as getaways for the boys. Shelton also had builders create a tropical aesthetic to the entire place, including a few palm trees around the property.

The mansion is expected to serve as Shelton and Stefani’s getaway palace, though it isn’t clear if he wants her to move to Oklahoma after they are married.
If the wedding mansion rumors are true, then Shelton is definitely all in when it comes to his future with Stefani and her three children.
In addition to the lavish wedding mansion, TMZ is reporting that Shelton and Stefani have hired a famous wedding planner to orchestrate the upcoming ceremony.
An insider close to the couple told the outlet that Jerri Woolworth, a famous celebrity wedding planner, will help prepare the illustrious ceremony.
Woolworth is based out of Tennessee and New York, and has experience planning events for the NFL, NHL, and the CMAs.
Shelton and Stefani have not addressed the latest rumors concerning their wedding.
An official wedding date has not been announced, though reports indicate the ceremony might take place in December after Shelton and Stefani’s work schedules have calmed down.
Stefani and Shelton haven’t revealed a location for the wedding either, though it’s safe to bet that Oklahoma might be the final destination.
