Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani are skipping one of country music’s biggest nights.
The 11-time CMA winner, 49, and the No Doubt frontwoman, 56, will not attend the 2025 Country Music Association Awards on Wednesday November 19, E! News reported.
“Blake and Gwen will be watching the CMAs on their TV this year,” a source told the outlet.
The country star already won an early award for CMA Musical Event of the Year, for his “Pour Me a Drink” duet with Post Malone, which was announced on Good Morning America on November 19.
The news comes amid speculation that the pair have hit a rocky patch. The “Nobody But You” singers, who haven’t been spotted together in months, “have been spending an awful lot of time apart lately,” a source recently told Star, adding that the couple, who fell in love a decade ago amid mutual heartbreak, are “so different and it’s starting to become more apparent now.”

It hasn’t helped that Shelton has been busy with his music competition series, The Road, while Stefani is prepping for a No Doubt reunion residency in Las Vegas — so they’re living separate lives. “The priority is to get in the same room again and stop the rot before it’s too late,” added the source.
While a rep for Shelton denies the claims, the source told Star that “there’s a real fear that the way things are headed, Blake and Gwen could wind up becoming another Hollywood divorce casualty, even though it’s the last thing either of them would want.”
