There has been a slew of rumors surrounding Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton’s relationship before the couple announced their engagement this week.

Last year, Us Weekly claimed that the couple’s wedding was on hold. The tabloid made this claim even before Stefani and Shelton got engaged.

A source told the tabloid that the couple had some heated discussions about their religion. Stefani is a Catholic so she wants to wed in church. But Stefani’s previous marriage to Gavin Rossdale hasn’t, allegedly, been annulled that’s why the couple still couldn’t tie the knot.

However, Stefani and Rossdale’s marriage has been annulled a long time ago. And this proves that the tabloid’s claims were incorrect.

Months earlier, National Enquirer claimed that Stefani and Shelton already tied the knot in a secret ceremony. A source claimed that The Voice coaches are impulsive so they just pulled the trigger and exchanged their I do’s.

The source also claimed that Stefani’s three children encouraged her to push through with her wedding to Shelton. After all, Zuma, Kingston, and Apollo adore Shelton and want him to be their dad.

January of last year, OK! magazine claimed that Shelton and Stefani’s wedding was once again called off. A source claimed that after the couple had a heart to heart talk, Shelton told Stefani that he’s having cold feet. After all, he’s had two failed marriages before.

When Stefani heard that Shelton was having cold feet, she couldn’t, allegedly, control her tears. The source said that it is also possible that Stefani was just feeling a bit hormonal because she’s pregnant.

Two years ago, Globe also claimed that Stefani and Shelton have decided to make their relationship legal. A source claimed that two tied the knot in a civil ceremony and it was just the two of them present.

The insider also said that Shelton is scared to have another failed marriage, but he managed to say all the right things to Stefani.

By now, fans of Shelton and Stefani already know that none of the tabloids’ claims are correct. After all, Shelton and Stefani just got engaged on the week of Oct. 17.

The couple also shared the happy news with their millions of fans on their respective social media account this week.
