In a recent interview, Gwen Stefani got very emotional after receiving a kind message from a fellow artist.
The pop singer made an appearance on a British TV show where she played a surprise video message from musician Pauline Black, who had nothing but kind words for her.
Many were surprised by the fact that Blake Shelton‘s wife grew very emotional and was on the verge of tears. A source spoke to In Touch to explain that the reasons behind Gwen Stefani’s tears are personal.
The TV personality is said to be going through a complex moment with her husband, Blake Shelton. Some of their friends even fear the romance might not survive.
An insider claims: “She has been especially fragile lately. The smallest thing sets her off. The times are tough for Gwen and Blake. They’re spending a lot of time apart, and the relationship is suffering. Friends are worried that if they don’t address their problems before they spiral out of control, divorce might be in the cards for them.”
According to the person in the know, there is distance between the couple, and it keeps growing. The diva is touring and working hard to push her musical career and her other business endeavors.
As for the country music star, he has a massively successful game show, Barmageddon to host. Stefani and Shelton are being pulled in opposite directions, and that is taking a toll on their marriage.
The source said: “Times are tough for Gwen and Blake. They’re spending a lot of time apart, and the relationship is suffering.”
Stefani and Shelton’s heartbreaking situation is due to a major change in their lives. The publication notes that, for years, “Gwen and Blake were inseparable. He was a coach on The Voice for 23 seasons before leaving the show in the spring; Gwen co-starred with him for seven of those seasons.”
The drastic change of being apart has put the pair in a tough spot. The source claimed: “They used to do everything together; some might even say they were together too much. They’re both distracted by their work. Anyone can see they’re having issues.”
Another cause of tension is the fact that Stefani would love to have a baby with Shelton and he does not feel the same way.
The source claimed: “They talked about having more kids early on and Blake seemed keen, but he’s had second thoughts and is now fine with being a stepdad to her three. And Gwen is less than thrilled. She wants a baby with Blake and presses the issue again and again.”
Stefani shares sons Kingston, 17, Zuma, 14, and Apollo, 9 with ex-husband Gavin Rossdale.
According to the publication, despite the painful changes and the emotional toll on the romance, love, and passion are still present.
The pal stated: “There’s growing concern that Gwen and Blake need to fix these issues now if they’re going to save their marriage and make things work for the long term. Obviously, there’s still a whole lot of love there — and nobody wants to see them divorced. Hopefully, it won’t come to that.”
Stefani has a way of getting to her husband’s heart, even if it takes a long time. She was determined to get married, and she got her wish, so no one would be surprised if they ended up having a baby together.
