Gwen Stefani didn’t have to wait long for a kiss from Blake Shelton in 2026.
Pop star Gwen Stefani and her husband celebrated the new year with a romantic kiss, dismissing recent breakup rumors and showing their relationship is still thriving.
Gwen Stefani posted a fun video on Instagram to ring in the New Year. The clip showed her and Blake Shelton happily celebrating with friends, singing and laughing. Gwen wore a sparkly “Happy New Year” tiara with a baseball cap, and Blake sported a top hat that said “Happy New Year 2026.” The video ended with Gwen kissing Blake, who then pulled her in for a passionate kiss.
Gwen, who has three sons – Kingston (18), Zuma (16), and Apollo (10) – with her ex-husband Gavin Rossdale, had mentioned that she and Blake were planning to spend the holidays between their two houses.
Blake and I travel back and forth between Oklahoma all the time,” she said on the December 4th episode of Today. “This December, we’ll be going back, and then we’ll return to L.A.
Interestingly, their unique way of celebrating holidays sometimes allows them to enjoy the same holiday on two different occasions.

The singer, who is known for his song “Cool,” recently shared that he celebrated Thanksgiving twice this year. He feels grateful for the opportunity and anticipates continuing to travel back and forth between locations. He especially enjoys Oklahoma this time of year, describing it as a beautiful place.
She’s actually been a fan of Oklahoma since she began visiting her husband’s home state. They met ten years ago while both working as coaches on the show The Voice, and she’s enjoyed her time there ever since.

She’s actually grown to love Oklahoma, ever since she began visiting her husband’s home state about ten years ago. They met while working together as coaches on the show The Voice, and she’s been spending more time there ever since.
It might sound unusual, but Blake and I bonded over gardening,” she explained to The Guardian last year. “We share a home in Oklahoma, and during the pandemic, we discovered a very old building on our property. Growing there were some purple irises – someone planted them a long time ago, but they’ve somehow managed to survive.”

Gwen told Ryan Seacrest in November 2015 that she found someone attractive, but also noted it was strange they were both going through similar experiences simultaneously. She explained that she’d received a lot of support from others simply sharing their own stories, which helped her gain new perspectives and heal.

In March 2018, Blake told Today that he was completely smitten, saying, “How could I not be [in love]? She is the greatest.”

After a painful breakup—at least for me—you need to express your feelings and want others to understand what you’re going through. I was truly at my lowest point, and Gwen Stefani helped me through it. It’s hard to imagine anyone else who could relate to the experience of a very public divorce from a fellow musician, as she had gone through something similar.

Growing up in Orange County, California, I was used to the beach. Experiencing a ranch in Oklahoma is completely different from anything I knew, so it’s been a wonderful and amazing new experience for me. I said this on Jimmy Kimmel Live in August 2020.

Gwen shared with Ellen DeGeneres how much she and her kids adore Blake, saying ‘Everyone loves him – he’s just so lovable!’ She admitted she often thinks about how wonderful it is to be marrying him.

Gwen Stefani says her style has become more traditionally feminine recently, which she attributes to being in a loving relationship with a very masculine partner. She explains that during her time with No Doubt, and even into her thirties, she didn’t consider herself to be particularly sexy and identified more as a tomboy, rarely even carrying a purse.

Gwen was surprised when Blake told her People magazine wanted him for their Sexiest Man Alive issue, because he usually avoids photoshoots. She immediately encouraged him to do it, playfully telling him he’s very attractive.

Gwen described Blake as captivating and exceptionally talented, saying he has a natural charisma that draws people to him. She playfully compared him to a unicorn, emphasizing how unique and special he is. She shared this on SiriusXM’s Andy Cohen Live in September 2019.

Blake Shelton tweeted in June 2018 that watching Gwen Stefani rehearse reminded him just how many incredible songs she’s written. He strongly encourages anyone who can to see her show in Las Vegas!

Blake shared on Good Dish in March 2022 that someone saved him from a really low point in his life. He described it as being pulled back from the edge of a cliff, explaining that he’d never felt so supported by another person. He said knowing she always had his back was an incredible feeling.

Gwen shared that since childhood, she dreamed of having a loving marriage and family, like her parents. When those hopes were shattered, she had to rebuild her life and create a new vision for the future. She sees meeting Blake as the turning point that made that possible, calling it a true miracle, as she told People magazine in November 2024.

Gwen described meeting her husband as a fresh start, especially after the painful breakdown of her family, which she felt was devastating. She shared with The Guardian in November 2024 that she didn’t know how she’d recover, but believes she was given a new chance at happiness through her husband’s love.
