Miranda Lambert and Blake Shelton were once a strong couple in the music industry. They met in 2005, got engaged in 2010, and tied the knot the following year. However, their marriage faced difficulties and rumors of conflict, including infidelity.
In July 2015, they announced their divorce, stating, “This is not the future we envisioned, and it is with a heavy heart that we move forward separately.” Blake quickly moved on and started dating his fellow The Voice judge, Gwen Stefani, who had also just gone through a divorce.
People speculated about Miranda’s feelings towards her ex-husband and his new wife, considering how fast Blake moved on. Let’s find out what we know.
Blake Shelton and Miranda Lambert’s Relationship
There have been speculations that Blake and Gwen’s relationship may have started before his divorce from Miranda. Blake and Gwen worked closely together on The Voice during his marriage. Despite rumors, both Blake and Miranda have denied any infidelity.
Some reports suggested that the couple couldn’t agree on having children. “Blake is eager to have children, but she really enjoys not being tied down,” a source told in 2015. They may have been on different time frames.
On the other hand, it was reported that Blake suspected Miranda of seeing someone else.
Miranda Lambert’s Initial Reaction
Miranda may have suspected Blake’s feelings for Gwen before their marriage ended. According to a source, “Miranda believes something’s been going on between these two for a lot longer than they’re letting on.” Another source mentioned that Miranda wasn’t surprised when Blake and Gwen got together, as they were always flirty. They also said that Miranda and Blake were already on rocky ground and knew that this could happen.
Reports from 2017 suggested that there were still bitter feelings between Miranda and Blake. Their divorce was a surprise to Miranda, and it seemed like there was unresolved anger between them. Another source mentioned that Miranda was hurt by how Blake quickly moved on with Gwen in such a public manner.
Miranda Lambert’s Peaceful Outlook
While it’s unclear if Blake and Gwen’s romance started before or after his divorce from Miranda, it’s understandable that Miranda would be bothered by how quickly he moved on. However, reports suggest that Miranda doesn’t harbor any negative feelings towards Gwen.
In fact, Miranda and Gwen have mutual respect for each other’s music and talent. They are fans of each other and have a positive view of one another. Miranda has always thought highly of Gwen and her talent, and Gwen feels the same way about Miranda. They support each other’s happiness and avoid drama.
It’s important to note that Miranda has also moved on since her divorce. She remarried New York City Police Department Officer Brendan McLoughlin in 2019 and seems to be happily married.
Miranda’s focus is on her own happiness and career, and she holds no ill will towards Gwen. Both women wish each other the best.
