Shelton and Stefani got to know each other when the latter joined The Voice in 2014 as a coach for season 7. By the time Stefani made a comeback for season 9 the following year, both were going through divorces and had become a couple. While Stefani has been on and off the program with several coaches, the pair's relationship has remained a cute constant.
Shelton proposed to Stefani in October 2020 after five years of dating, sharing the happy news on Instagram. "@gwenstefani, thanks for saving my 2020," Shelton wrote. "And the rest of my life. I love you. I heard a YES!"

This is Stefani's second marriage. Her first marriage, which lasted 13 years and ended in divorce in 2015, was to Gavin Rossdale. Shelton's first marriage to Kaynette Williams lasted from 2003 to 2006. He later married Miranda Lambert in 2011. Shelton and Lambert separated in 2015 after four years of marriage. Before her divorce drama became public, Stefani said in March 2016 that she and Shelton first connected over their shared sorrow while working together on The Voice.

The couple is adorably happy now. Shelton enjoys raising the boys so much that motivated by a desire to spend more time with his stepsons, he decided to quit The Voice after 23 seasons. "They've taught me something about myself that I never knew: I'm more than just a country singer or a goofy guy. I'm someone they lean on, and that's not a responsibility that I ever had and not something that I ever considered even being into," Shelton told PEOPLE about helping raise Kingston, 16, Zuma, 14, and Apollo, 8, in December 2022. "It's a different kind of self-worth. Maybe it's the opposite of self-worth because you put yourself way down on the rung, and they move up ahead of you," continued the singer.
