There's a lot of love on The Voice now that Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani are coaching together.

So much love, in fact, that rumors had been swirling that the No Doubt leading lady and longtime Voice coach were already engaged ... and possibly married. Why? Well, for starters, Blake told ET last December that he "loves" the rumors.

"Those rumors are great," he said. "Anybody that thinks that I'm married to Gwen already, I love it. My God. Who wouldn't want to be married to Gwen Stefani?"

That non-denial aside though, in another ET interview from June 2019 he said their bond gets "stronger every day" and that it's pretty much a matter of when they will tie the knot. "Obviously, that's gotta lead somewhere, but I promise you, we won't break the news in any of the grocery store trash magazines."

There's no question that the talented artists already have a love story for the books. They first met back in 2014 when Gwen joined the panel of The Voice. But it wasn't until the two helped each other get through their respective 2015 divorces — Blake from Miranda Lambert and Gwen from Gavin Rossdale — that their relationship became especially strong.

Blake told Billboard in 2016 that after she discovered he was splitting up with Miranda, Gwen asked the "Honey Bee" singer to talk alone. It was then that she told him she was going through something similar.

"That's kind of how our friendship and bond started, that day. It went from that to checking in on each other once a week through email — 'This s--t happened to me, what happened to you?' — to maybe three times a week, then every day to, 'Hey, here's my phone number if you ever want to text,'" Blake explained. "Next thing I know, I wake up and she's all I care about, and I'm ­wondering if she feels the same about me."

By November 2015, their friendship had blossomed into a full-blown romance. Over the next seven months, the two became very open about their relationship, posing together at the 2016 Vanity Fair Oscars afterparty and later performing together at the Billboard Music Awards in May.

Over the years, the couple has continued to support one another. They've even recorded new music together, including "Go Ahead and Break My Heart" in 2016, "You Make It Feel Like Christmas" in 2018, "Nobody But You" in 2019, and, most recently, "Happy Anywhere" in 2020.

In June 2020, Us Weekly reported that Gwen was ready to walk down the aisle. According to the outlet, the singer was working on getting her marriage to Gavin annulled by the Catholic church. But the coronavirus pandemic has changed her perspective, and she reportedly wants to make it official with Blake when social distance guidelines allow for the celebration.

“Gwen wants to have a ceremony and reception with their family and friends,” a source said. “She didn’t wait this long to get married with family watching on Zoom. It has made her realize that waiting for the annulment at this point is just futile because it could take years for the church tribunal to issue the decision.”

Whether or not this will come to be, what's most important is that their love is unbreakable — and rings won't change that.
