See Why Blake Shelton Just Compared Wife Gwen Stefani to Dolly Parton
Meeting on set of The Voice in 2014, Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani struck up a friendship. That friendship blossomed into much more, with the pair tying the knot in 2021. Fans have closely watched their love story unfold over the past decade, with the “Boys Round Here” crooner, 48, never missing an opportunity to sing his wife’s praises. Most recently, Shelton drew parallels between the “Hollaback Girl” singer, 55, and the “Queen of Country,” Dolly Parton.
What Blake Shelton Has Learned From Gwen Stefani
Faith is a crucial part of Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani’s marriage. The former No Doubt frontwoman has spoken about how she relied on her Christian faith during various life challenges, including her divorce from rocker Gavin Rossdale.
“For me, I was turning to my faith right away,” Stefani said during a 2021 appearance on Today. “That was a seed that my mom planted in me when I was a little girl … it’s a journey. It’s almost like you get lost, it’s like you get lost on your journey. We all do, and we all will, and I will again at some point, I’m sure.”

For Shelton, meeting Stefani marked a turning point in his relationship with God. “I’ve learned so much from her and she’s really the person that’s helped me get in touch with my faith and get serious about it and not just something that you say at an awards show, you know?” he told Kelleigh Bannen of Today’s Country Radio.

Continuing, the five-time Entertainer of the Year said, “She reminds me to think about it all day long. When you’re around her, everything she sees, she sees God in it. And it’s really special to be around her, because her faith is alive.”
Gwen Stefani Has an Inner Radiance Comparable to This Country Star
Bannen assured Blake Shelton that other people notice Gwen Stefani’s inner light as well. The “Sorry on the Rocks” singer compared Stefani to women like Dolly Parton and Kimberly Schlapman of Little Big Town.
All of them, she noted, “are almost, like, lit from within.”
Shelton agreed about Schlapman, saying, “I don’t think I’ve ever seen with her without a smile from ear to ear. She’s just an incredible person. Dolly, obviously… but Gwen has that too. She just has that.”
