Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton are celebrating four years of marriage, marking the occasion with a heartfelt social media tribute that showcases just how far their relationship has come. The 55-year-old pop icon took to Instagram on July 3 to share a touching message dedicated to her husband, country music star Blake Shelton.
In a video filled with sweet personal moments and affectionate clips, Stefani publicly expressed her gratitude and love for her partner of nearly a decade. “Every day I thank God for u @blakeshelton,” she captioned the video. “Happy anniversary. I love you so much.”
The post, filled with warm moments and visible chemistry, quickly drew attention from fans and fellow celebrities, many of whom have followed the couple’s journey since their early days together. Stefani and Shelton first met on the set of The Voice in 2014.
At the time, both were emerging from emotionally difficult periods in their personal lives. Shelton had recently divorced Miranda Lambert, while Stefani was going through a high-profile split from Gavin Rossdale. Though their romance eventually blossomed into a marriage, Stefani has been open about the rocky beginning of their relationship.
Speaking to People in November 2024, the “Hollaback Girl” singer recalled a time when she nearly ended communication with Shelton altogether. “There was a point where I was like, ‘I can’t even talk to you,’” Stefani shared. ‘This is insane. I already have enough problems.
This is not happening anymore. We’re not going to text or anything.’ We had just met, and it was chaos. Both of our lives were in complete turmoil, all over the ground. Nothing could save us at that point.” Despite the early turbulence, the couple found strength in their shared struggles and eventually built a lasting bond.
Their relationship transitioned from colleagues to friends, and ultimately to life partners. They tied the knot in an intimate ceremony in 2021, held at Shelton’s Oklahoma ranch. Now, four years into their marriage, the couple appears stronger than ever.
Their anniversary tribute serves as a reminder of their resilience — a love story that defied the odds and overcame personal hardship to become one of the most beloved celebrity unions in recent memory. As Stefani’s heartfelt post continues to garner admiration online, fans are celebrating right alongside the duo — proof that even in the chaotic world of showbiz, lasting love can flourish.
