Not to be a huge nerd who obsesses over the relationships of random celebrities, but hi, we’re here to talk about Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton and their relationship, which we happen to be obsessed with. Mostly because—unlike most celebrity ‘ships—we actually got to see Gwen and Blake’s bond play out in real time on The Voice, meaning we’re all extremely invested and rooting for them. It’s all completely normal, don’t even worry about it! Anyway, these two continue to melt (our) hearts almost 10 years into their relationship, so a timeline is in order.

I have a pretty unique perspective on it, and it’s real, man. I’m so affectionate and gross with my wife, this is a whole other level of…vomit.”
