Blake Shelton is feeling on top of the world, especially after celebrating his 48th birthday in Italy with his wife, Gwen Stefani.
The country music star took to Instagram to share snippets of his birthday festivities with the “Just a Girl” singer, who is 54. The photos revealed some unique birthday decorations and accessories that made the day extra special.
Shelton began his post with a selfie, sporting a green printed button-up shirt and orange glasses that read “Happy Birthday!” He also donned a disco ball helmet, with neon lights and streamers in the background, adding a festive touch to the celebration.
In another photo, the Grammy winner was seen sleeping in a bed adorned with silver balloons spelling out “Happy Birthday.” The bed was surrounded by black and white pillows, and additional white balloons were scattered across the ceiling.
“Thank you @gwenstefani for the greatest birthday ever!!!!!” Shelton captioned the post. “Plus we finally found the hotel…”
In a follow-up Instagram post, Shelton expressed gratitude to his fans for their birthday wishes and disclosed that the celebration took place in Italy. He shared a photo of himself riding a bicycle with a helmet on, navigating through an Italian street.
“Thanks for the birthday wishes everybody,” he wrote. “I’ve drank so much in Italy that Gwen wanted to be sure I made it back to the hotel safely… I’m still not there though…”
On June 18, Stefani marked her husband’s 48th birthday with a heartfelt video compilation of their sweetest moments, set to their duet “Purple Irises.” She captioned the post, “happy bday to the greatest, @blakeshelton 🤍 u are my everything!!” The video featured clips of their time on The Voice, performing onstage, and enjoying nature together.
Stefani, who is a mother to sons Kingston, 18, Zuma, 15, and Apollo, 10, also honored Shelton on Father’s Day. She posted a video showcasing several “fatherly” moments, including Shelton holding a bouquet of flowers and hugging one of her sons. The video also included drawings made by her boys and a humorous clip of Shelton dressed in pink bunny footie pajamas, reminiscent of A Christmas Story, as her sons ran to hug him.
“And a very happy Father’s Day to @blakeshelton 🤍 we love u so much!!” she wrote.
Stefani shares her sons with ex-husband Gavin Rossdale, who also celebrated their eldest child’s milestone birthday. On May 26, Stefani commemorated Kingston’s 18th birthday with a touching Instagram post, documenting his life from early childhood to now. The post included several pictures of the mother-son duo over the years.
Rossdale also celebrated Kingston’s new adulthood with an Instagram post filled with photos of the teen, including a shot with his brothers, Zuma and Apollo. “HAPPY BIRTHDAY KINGSTON,” the Bush frontman wrote. “18 today and a massive step into your future. so far the best ride of my life and I can’t wait to see where you go from here. I have total belief in you and deeply admire the man within.”
Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani have been inseparable since they began dating in 2015 after meeting on the set of The Voice. Both were coming out of lengthy failed marriages at the time. After five years together, the couple got engaged in 2020, with Stefani announcing their engagement on social media, flashing her blinged-out hand while sharing a kiss with Shelton.
Less than a year later, on July 3, 2021, the couple tied the knot in an intimate ceremony at Shelton’s Oklahoma ranch. Since then, they have been enjoying their life together, leaving behind the drama of past relationships.
On Monday, Stefani posted a video montage of her and Shelton, featuring never-before-seen clips of the couple performing together, holding hands, and even kissing. “Happy bday to the greatest, @blakeshelton [heart emoji] u are my everything!!” she captioned the post. The video was set to their duet, “Purple Irises,” which they performed at this year’s Academy of Country Music Awards.
Fans and followers couldn’t help but gush over the couple’s love and happiness. “Blake. I have never seen you this happy….., all because of your wonderful wife, Gwen. It’s wonderful to see the love you share,” one fan commented.
Another fan added, “There isn’t a single time that Blake Shelton didn’t make me laugh out loud! We all need to have someone like him in our lives.”
Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani continue to be a beloved couple, sharing their joy and love with the world. Their recent birthday celebrations in Italy are just another testament to their strong bond and the happiness they bring to each other’s lives.
