In 2015, both Shelton and Stefani were going through divorces with their respective spouses — Shelton from Miranda Lambert and Stefani from Gavin Rossdale. During their second season on The Voice together, the two connected over their similar situations and quickly fell for each other.
"By the second time she came around, both of our lives had basically fallen completely apart," Shelton told Entertainment Tonight in December. "And little did we know it happened to both of us at the same time and we bonded over that. So somewhere in that time of darkness it ended up being the greatest moment of my life. It's amazing, it truly is."

Sparks fly
The pair made their public debut as a couple at an NFL game between the Arizona Cardinals and Green Bay Packers in December 2015 after they were confirmed to be dating one month prior. "Both of us know that the timing, and the way she and I met and came together, it just felt like home, that's not an accident," Shelton said. "I think that the way that she and I were able to save each other's lives and get ourselves through that time it was evidence to us that God had a hand in it."

After a short break, Stefani returned to The Voice for Season 12 and later came back for Season 17. She's also officially headed back to her red chair for Season 19 this fall, which means fans will get to see the pair playfully troll each other once again. "For this season of The Voice it was like, 'How much do [I share]," Stefani said on Today in September 2019. "I didn't know how much to be us, but you can't do anything else but just be you, so it was easy, it was like riding a bike."

Shelton and Stefani have collaborated on several songs during their relationship including "Go Ahead and Break My Heart" from Shelton's 2016 album If I'm Honest and "You Make It Feel Like Christmas" from Stefani's 2017 holiday album of the same name. They've topped the country charts twice with their two most recent duets, "Nobody But You" and "Happy Anywhere."

"He's been helping me out a lot. I literally get to the point where I'm like, 'You gotta get home! I need some help!' It's hard, I've got three boys."
