What marriage trouble? Proud hubby Blake Shelton had nothing but raves after finally catching wife Gwen Stefani‘s band No Doubt’s Las Vegas residency at The Sphere May 23. The 56-year-old shouted out Blake from the stage while he posted an Instagram video of himself singing along and appearing as the ultimate fanboy in an embroidered No Doubt jacket, calling the show “un-freakin-real.”

While both stars have been in Vegas, a source says that before their latest reunion, Blake, 49, and Gwen, “were like ships passing in the night.” The country crooner was busy with his Caesars Palace gig until late May. Meanwhile Gwen was “focusing on her own career priorities.” The couple’s growing distance “had gotten people talking within their circle, once again speculating that they were having some kind of trouble.”
Previously, explains the source, rumor had it that mom of three Gwen (with ex Gavin Rossdale) was tiring of life on Blake’s sleepy southern Oklahoma ranch and was spending most of her time pursuing opportunities hundreds of miles away. “The feeling among their friends is that there’s still work to do if they’re going to get back to being totally happy and rock solid.”

Regardless, adds the source, “they do have so much mutual respect, and Blake is in awe of Gwen’s talent. The fact that he was front and center, cheering her on, went a long way.”
