Blake Shelton & Gwen Stefani Officially Dating—Why They Announced It On The Worst Night Ever For Miranda Lambert

Gwen’s reps confirmed on Wednesday, Nov. 4, that The Voice coaches were officially together

After their hot and heavy Halloween partying last weekend, the two were caught at one point holding hands while leaving one party. When they realized the paparazzi were outside, they quickly let go, but their smiles said it all about what was really going on behind the scenes.

Stefani, 46, is still on the mend after her nasty divorce from Gavin Rossdale at the end of this summer. Even her most recent music video “Used To Love You” oozes the pain she’s still dealing with.

Blake too, 39, has had anything but an easy split from ex-wife Miranda Lambert. After accusations of her cheating with at least five other men, and Blake allegedly catching her with one of them, their divorce announcement surfaced this summer on July 20.

Now, the new duo are teaming up to take the ultimate stab—hooking up with each other, likely in an attempt to twist the knife a little more in their exes’ guts.

Hours before Miranda Lambert was to take stage and accept 2015 CMA’s Female Vocalist of the Year, Gwen’s rep confirmed the Blake and Gwen dating whispers.

Miranda kept her speech short by saying, “I needed a bright spot this year,” fans being able to tell she was choking back some tears after hearing the news.
