GWEN Stefani has revealed a private handwritten message from her husband Blake Shelton after clapping back at divorce rumors.
The pop star and the country singer have been at the center of split speculation as their career successes have kept them apart in recent months.
Gwen, 54, shared a photo to her Instagram profile on Tuesday of a beautiful bouquet of flowers gifted by her husband Blake, 47.
The image showed a stunning arrangement of purple Iris’ with a yellow center, situated on a lovely windowsill overlooking a lemon tree.
The No Doubt frontwoman included a handwritten note that was left leaning on the glass vase at the base.
The message – presumably from her husband – read, “To: Pretty Girl. Love, Blake.”
Gwen tagged her spouse in the post and captioned it with a little letter emoji.
SHUT IT DOWN
Blake’s sweet message to his vocalist wife came after she clapped back at rampant fan rumors that their marriage was headed toward divorce.
On Monday, Gwen put them to rest when she posted a picture of a Polaroid snap of the couple hugging while smiling at the camera.
“Never knew a love like this,” she wrote in purple on the Polaroid and drew a heart.
Next to the picture was a bouquet of purple flowers lying on the marble countertop.
Gwen captioned the post with a purple flower emoji and a white heart emoji.
FAN COMMENTS
Fans flooded the comments section to gush over Gwen and Blake’s love story and praise the star for defending their relationship.
“So Happy!!! She posted this I love them together,” one person wrote.
“Thank you, Gwen. So upset with all the negativity about the POWER COUPLE! Keep the love strong,” said another.
“So glad you’ve posted this so people can shut up about the dire circumstances of your marriage!” remarked a third.
“Everyone goes through s**t, if you adore each other and are faithful, you can almost always make it through the discomfort. And on the other end you’re stronger.”
TROUBLE IN PARADISE?
Many fans have been speculating that Gwen and Blake – who tied the knot in July 2021 – were having marriage troubles after they appeared to be more focused on their careers.
Gwen has been spending much of her time on her cosmetics line, GXVE Beauty, and recently announced she’s reuniting with her old band, No Doubt, for a performance at Coachella this Spring.
Meanwhile, Blake’s efforts have gone toward his new tour, Back to the Honky Tonk, which kicks off in February, and the opening of his bar and restaurant, Ole Red, in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Questions also arose about the fate of their marriage when they opted to spend New Year’s Eve apart doing separate gigs – with Blake performing in Nashville, Tennessee, and Gwen hosting a party in Las Vegas.
LOVE ON THE VOICE
The pair first met when Gwen joined The Voice as a coach in 2014.
Blake had been a coach on the singing competition for 23 seasons before departing in May 2023.
Gwen was on the show on and off for years but returned to her coach’s seat right after her husband’s exit, adding more fuel to separation rumors.
The last season, the Spiderwebs singer coached alongside John Legend, Niall Horan, and Reba McEntire.
