Blake Shelton denied allegations that he and Gwen Stefani are divorcing.
“Starting in October, I think, or maybe November, I started noticing these articles popping up about ‘Blake and Gwen, they’re split up,’” the country singer told County Countdown USA in an interview shared Saturday.
He recalled the articles stating that he and Stefani were “not even seeing each other anymore,” alleging they were “going through a divorce.”
“And then, you know, a week later, a picture comes out of us walking out of the grocery store,” Shelton, 49, said, explaining that headlines then read, “Oh, they’re back together again!”
“And another week goes by, and we’re not seen at the grocery store [and an article reads], ‘They’re divorcing!’” he joked.
The “God’s Country” crooner then commented on seeing doctored photos of himself online, sharing that he found them convincing but now doesn’t “believe anything anymore that he’s seen on the internet.”
Last year, Shelton and Stefani, 56, were at the forefront of split rumors when they released their breakup duet “Hangin’ On” in March.
Shelton, however, told Access Hollywood that the track wasn’t a “reflection” of his and the No Doubt singer’s marriage.
Rumors heightened when the couple didn’t attend the CMA Awards in November despite Shelton’s track “Pour Me a Drink” being nominated for Musical Event of the Year.
Shelton and Stefani have not made a red carpet appearance together since March’s The Grand Ole Opry’s OPRY 100 celebration.
The “Don’t Speak” songstress, meanwhile, has also shut down split rumblings by sharing PDA-filled snaps with her husband, including a video of them sharing a New Year’s kiss.
She and Shelton, who met in 2014 while working as coaches on “The Voice,” have been married since 2021.
Stefani has previously shared that the best marriage advice she has received was having a third party, God, in her relationship with Shelton.
The “Hollaback Girl” singer has also admitted that Shelton gave her “a second chance at life” after her divorce from Gavin Rossdale, whom she was married to from 2002 to 2016.
As for Shelton, he was married to Kaynette Williams from 2003 to 2006 and Miranda Lambert from 2011 to 2015.
