After nearly a decade together, the duo have continued to prove that their love is built to last. Both stars weathered very public ups and downs before finding each other, but their relationship has only grown stronger over the years. Despite coming from very different worlds, Gwen and Blake's romance has flourished since first crossing paths as coaches on The Voice. Even after Blake stepped away from the long-running series in 2022, the couple have remained firmly in the spotlight, making high-profile appearances and shutting down breakup rumors with ease - including memorable red-carpet moments at events like the CMT Music Awards. Take a look back at how Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton's love story has unfolded over the years.

Blake wed Miranda Lambert in 2011, but in July 2015, they shocked country music fans by announcing they were getting divorced. Meanwhile, Gwen married Gavin Rossdale in 2002, but they also announced their split in the summer of 2015. Theirs was a bit more complicated, though, as they shared three kids together (Kingston, Zuma, and Apollo).

(NBC) Obviously, Blake and Gwen were both extremely heartbroken by their breakups, but that fall, they were both back at work on season nine of The Voice. It was only Gwen's second time as a coach on the show, and she and Blake admittedly didn't get to know each other that well the first time around. This time, though, they had something mutual to bond over. The two channeled their heartbreaks into a close friendship, which quickly turned romantic. Confirming the Romance For weeks, rumors surfaced in magazines and online about Gwen and Blake's relationship, but they kept hush-hush about the reports. However, they finally went public in mid-November 2015. On Nov. 4, Blake performed at the CMA Awards in Nashville. Gwen was not by his side at the show, but afterward, they were photographed attending an after-party together - and there was no mistaking the fact that they were holding hands. Now, everyone knew it was SO on between these two.

Aside from flirting with one another during The Voice live shows that fall, they also attended an Arizona Cardinals game together in late December. Gwen even posted a photo from the game on social media! At this point, they began meeting each other's friends and family members, as well.

Red Carpet Debut Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani at the 2016 Vanity Fair Oscar Party. (AP) The couple then made their official red carpet debut just a couple of weeks later - and it was at one of the biggest events of the year. Blake was Gwen's date to the Vanity Fair Oscars Party, which is attended by all of the most A-list and high-profile celebrities. They walked the red carpet together and looked like the picture perfect couple as they posed for photographs. Inspiring Each Other's Music In 2016, Blake and Gwen also began releasing new music about their breakups and finding each other. Gwen dropped her song, "Make Me Like You," in Feb. 2016, and didn't hesitate to admit that it was about Blake. The lyrics tell the story of finding the right person when you least expected - or even wanted it - after a failed romance. Blake then put out his song, "Came Here To Forget," on March 8, 2016. Although he didn't write the track, it was clearly relatable to what he was going through, as the lyrics are all about two people coming together to forget about their past romances.
