Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton are respected singers not only in their genres but in the whole music industry. Although the No Doubt frontwoman is known for her unique voice, she is mostly famous for her rock-hard abs.
The 49-year-old singer, songwriter, actress, and record producer had always been fit since the very first time people laid eyes on her as the lead vocalist of No Doubt in the 1990s. With that said, reports claim that Gwen Stefani wants her boyfriend Blake Shelton to be as fit as well.
Not that Blake Shelton is fat and unhealthy, but he is certainly not the usual muscular with toned abs kind of guy. While it appears that Gwen Stefani loves everything about her man, extra pounds and all, there are a couple of reports alleging that she wants him to lose some weight.
National Enquirer claimed in their March 2017 issue that Gwen Stefani put Blake Shelton on a “no-alcohol diet.” Alcohol is one of the main reasons for weight gain, so the story alleged that the No Doubt singer banned her boyfriend from drinking. “She told Blake that his regimen of guzzling beer, rum and tequila turned her off. So she gave him an ultimatum, it was either her or the bottle,” the insider said.
Nine months later, the same tabloid alleged that Gwen Stefani gave Blake Shelton an ultimatum to lose weight or else she will leave him. “Blake’s gotten more comfortable in the relationship, and he’s gotten pudgy again. Gwen calls him out on it, but he tries to joke about it, saying she should love him more because there’s more of him to love now. But Gwen doesn’t think it’s funny,” the source claimed.
National Enquirer released more similar stories, but Gossip Cop quickly slammed all the reports before they get out of hand. The site stated that there is no truth to all the claims regarding Gwen Stefani forcing Blake Shelton to lose weight. The “Don’t Speak” singer’s spokesperson told Gossip Cop that the rumors were “untrue.”
Gwen Stefani even made a pizza for Blake Shelton on his birthday in June. If the mother-of-three is so upset with the country crooner’s weight, then she would not have bothered making him such a fattening meal.
Meanwhile, Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton have been together for four years after falling in love on the set of The Voice. The pair will be working together again as Gwen takes over Adam Levigne's spot in the new installment of the reality singing contest after his exit.
