<p id=”par-1_54″><a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/tag/miranda-lambert/?swcfpc=1″>Miranda Lambert</a> and <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/tag/blake-shelton/?swcfpc=1″>Blake Shelton</a> divorced in 2015. In the years since, their relationship has reportedly been rocky at best. While they don’t speak about each other all that often, Shelton once posted a message on social media that seemed to take a shot at his ex-wife. Her former fiancé didn’t appreciate the sentiment. </p>

<p id=”par-2_25″>In 2018, Lambert became involved <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/news/a-look-back-at-miranda-lamberts-relationship-history.html/”>with singer Evan Felker</a>. He was married at the time. Shelton appeared to reference the relationship in a vague tweet.</p>
<p id=”par-3_32″>“Been taking the high road for a long time … I almost gave up. But I can finally see something on the horizon up there!! Wait!! Could it be?! Yep!! It’s karma!!”</p>

<p id=”par-4_23″>Lambert’s ex, Jeff Allen, responded to Shelton’s tweet. He was with Lambert when she met Shelton, and he accused them both of infidelity.</p>
<p id=”par-5_61″>“You know, I’ve always given you the benefit of the doubt and chalked it up to just being human,” he wrote (via <a target=”_blank” href=”https://www.usmagazine.com/celebrity-news/news/miranda-lamberts-ups-and-downs-over-the-years-blake-divorce-and-more/” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>Us Weekly</a>). “But you must be one arrogant SOB to pop off something like this, when I know damn good and well you were cheating on your wife and Miranda was cheating on me when you two started up.”</p>
<p id=”par-6_16″>Allen added that it bothered him to see Shelton’s post about “karma” given his relationship history.</p>
<p id=”par-7_22″>“I kept my mouth shut for 13 years,” he wrote. “Sorry, his karma tweet rubbed me wrong. All of this is pointless.”</p>

<p id=”par-8_45″>When Shelton and Lambert met, he was married and she was engaged. Their relationships did nothing to prevent <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/news/blake-shelton-panicked-realized-feelings-miranda-lambert-happening.html/”>sparks from flying</a> between them. Shelton said he began to fall for her as they sang “You’re the Reason God Made Oklahoma” together at a CMT event.</p>
<p id=”par-9_50″>“I’ve never had that kind of experience with anybody,” Shelton said, per <a target=”_blank” href=”https://ew.com/article/2011/07/12/miranda-lambert-vh1-behind-the-music-exclusive-video/” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>Entertainment Weekly</a>. “I was a married guy, you know? Standing up there and singing with somebody and going, ‘Man, this shouldn’t be happening.’ Looking back on that, I was falling in love with her, right there on stage.”</p>
<p id=”par-10_4″>Lambert echoed this sentiment.</p>
<p id=”par-11_19″>“It was just like this draw to each other,” she said. “It was just sort of this inevitable chemistry.”</p>

Lambert said the massive public reaction to her love life was difficult to handle.</p>
<p id=”par-13_58″>“I wasn’t prepared for that,” she told <a target=”_blank” href=”https://www.cbsnews.com/news/miranda-lambert-on-her-new-album-palomino-and-singing-truth/” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>CBS News</a> in 2022, adding, “Well, I don’t think anyone is. And it’s not nice sometimes. But I think you got to take it with a grain of salt and know that, like, I’m a singer-songwriter, so luckily I can tell my whole truth. I will not lie in my music.”</p>

<p id=”par-14_19″>She believed she’d grown up since her divorce, and felt <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/news/miranda-lambert-wondered-blake-shelton-meeting-current-husband.html/?swcfpc=1″>happier in her new relationship</a> with husband Brendan McLoughlin.</p>
<p id=”par-15_48″>“I’ve also grown up, and I’ve learned a lot about myself,” she said. “And I think at some point, you just start to settle into who you are. And I think that’s why you feel that, like, peace coming from me, ’cause I feel at peace with myself.”</p>
