Ever since Gwen and Blake Shelton got together, fans have been eager for them to start a family of their own.
Rumors have been flying for years, with “sources” suggesting everything from medical miracles to secret pregnancies and beyond.
On the flip side, there have also been reports that the couple is heading for a splitbut we choose to ignore that noise.
So is Gwen Stefani, who turned 56 in October, pregnant? Let’s discuss what we know.
Gwen Stefani & Blake Shelton love being parents
Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton started dating in late 2015, shortly after they both separated from their respective spouses.
Although they seemingly had nothing in common, it was clear from the start that they were perfectly aligned when it came to the importance of family.
Gwen gave birth to three children with her ex, Gavin Rossdale: Kingston, Zuma and Apollo.
Meanwhile, Blake had no children of his own with his ex-wife, Miranda Lambert. In fact, some insiders suggested that the lack of children was the reason for their split.
From the moment Blake joined the family, it was clear that he was eager to be a role model for Gwen’s boys and began being a “stepfather” even before it was official.
In fact, he’s become such a mentor to the boys, he’s even started helping them start their own musical careers! How about that!
Is Gwen Stefani pregnant with Blake Shelton’s child?
Cards on the table: no, Gwen is not pregnant. At least not what she has announced.
But it’s not entirely out of the question that these two still want a child together – especially since they’ve been trying for over 7 years!
Gwen and Blake didn’t get married until 2021, but for years before that, it was reported that the couple were “hyper-focused on getting pregnant.”
Insiders close to the couple told outlets that Us Weekly With their bond so strong, Blake and Gwen put having a child ahead of marriage for many years.
“They think there’s still a chance for Gwen,” a Shelton insider said. “They are incredibly hopeful.”
Despite having 3 successful pregnancies, Gwen was in her late 40s when she started dating Blake.
While celebs like Janet Jackson welcomed children in the 50s, insiders explained that Gwen needed help if she were to get pregnant.
“Gwen would love to get pregnant, things with Blake are so perfect, having a baby with him would be the icing on the cake,” a Gwen insider shared. HollywoodLife.com.
“She’s a big believer in alternative medicine, so she wants to do it in the most natural way possible. She’s had acupuncture and has been working with a Chinese herbalist to increase her fertility.”
But as we know, as of 2024, any attempt to have a baby has not proved fruitful yet.
Yet there is always adoption and surrogacy. And with both of them off The voice now there would be no real time to focus on a family.
Gwen Stefani loves being a mom
“I waited my whole life to be a mother. It was all I wanted, my whole life”
The rock star mother appeared in an episode from 2024 The Skinny Confidential Him & Her Show‘s podcast, and she discussed how difficult it was to juggle her kids while working, even though she loved being a mom.
From working on her solo album to touring with No Doubt, Kingston was always by her side.
“It just felt so real and right. I was so ripped on that tour because I was so sick. I ended up taking the baby when he was 9 months and going on a world tour, like 120 shows … We’re in a hotel one day and I thought I had to stop breastfeeding because I was like, ‘How am I going to breastfeed and be on stage?'”
With all that said, Gwen had once thought she was too old to have another child. Then her oldest, Kingston, started asking her to have another sibling.
“I thought, ‘I’m too old.’ I’m not going to have any more babies. I’m sorry, honey,” she said. “He just wanted a baby, so he started praying every night for this baby. Four weeks later he was praying every night like, ‘Please let my mom have a baby,’ and I’m pregnant with Apollo.”
Gwen calls that pregnancy a miracle. She also admits that she has been lucky enough to have 3 miracles happen in her lifetime.
“(Hosting The voice) was the second miracle. The first miracle was getting pregnant. The other was The voice. And then the third was obviously, meet Blake.”
Perhaps a fourth miracle is on its way? Fourth baby, fourth miracle – stranger things have happened!
