Gwen Stefani Said ‘The Voice’ Edited Footage to Look Like She Was Flirting With Blake Shelton Long Before They Were Together

<p id=”par-1_66″>In 2015, both <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/tag/gwen-stefani/?swcfpc=1″>Gwen Stefani</a> and <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/tag/blake-shelton/?swcfpc=1″>Blake Shelton</a> left their respective marriages. Stefani had wanted to conceal her separation from Gavin Rossdale on the set of <em><a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/tag/the-voice/?swcfpc=1″>The Voice</a></em>, and felt astonished when Shelton made an announcement about his own divorce. They began a relationship that same year. According to Stefani, though, <em>The Voice</em> made it seem as though their romance started far earlier than it did.</p>

<p id=”par-2_57″>In 2015, Shelton told his fellow judges on <em>The Voice</em> that he was <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/gwen-stefani-said-blake-sheltons-divorce-announcement-felt-gift.html/”>getting a divorce</a>. Stefani was shocked, as she was also in the process of ending her marriage. They began a relationship later that year, but Stefani said that season of The Voice made it seem that their romance began much earlier than it did.</p>

<p id=”par-3_32″>“We were laughing our heads off when we saw the blind auditions,” she told <a target=”_blank” href=”https://www.cosmopolitan.com/entertainment/celebs/news/a62246/gwen-stefani-september-2016/” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>Cosmopolitan</a> in 2016. “I love NBC, but they for sure edited stuff to look like we were flirting.”</p>

<p id=”par-4_12″>She said that when the season began, she still hardly knew Shelton.</p>

<p id=”par-5_32″>“They chose to run with that story before anything was even real,” she said. “I hardly knew him. But it was like it was in the air — happening before it happened.”</p>

<p id=”par-7_40″>“There I was with my big secret, right?” she told <a target=”_blank” href=”https://www.harpersbazaar.com/culture/features/a16416/gwen-stefani-interview/” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>Harper’s Bazaar</a>. “And that’s when Blake was like, ‘Everybody, before we go out there, I want to let everyone know that by the time this airs, I will be divorced.’”</p>

<p id=”par-8_16″>Suddenly, she felt immense relief, as there was someone who understood what she was going through.</p>

<p id=”par-9_32″>“[I felt] exposed somehow, you know?” she said. “But it was like being handed this gift of a friend who was going through the exact same thing at the exact same time.”</p>

<p id=”par-10_18″>She said that “everything flipped” when she learned about his divorce. Suddenly, she felt hopeful about the future.</p>

<p id=”par-13_10″>She shared how she felt when they finished the song.</p>

<p id=”par-14_55″>“I wrote a verse and sent it to him, but he was gone because he doesn’t live in L.A. He didn’t have Wi-Fi, so he wasn’t answering me back!” she said. “As soon as he came back to town, he brought his guitar over. We were like, ‘We wrote a song together! This is crazy!’”</p>
