It's hard to believe it's been six years since Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton first got together. I remember hearing the news of this unlikely pair and being skeptical, but hey — time has proven these two lovebirds are totally meant for each other.
Now, after tying the knot this past summer, Blake has gotten candid on what it means to be a stepdad to Gwen's three sons, and how special their bond has become.
With 28 #1 hits and a 21-season run on The Voice, Blake is ready to wind things down and is looking forward to doing that with Gwen and her boys.
"You gotta get some life in there, and marrying Gwen [Stefani], I've married into a family. She's got three boys ... and all of a sudden you go, there's other stuff."
"He took Richie on and raised him from the time he was 1 year old, and my brother never thought of my dad as anything other than his dad," he recalled.
He added, "And every day I've fallen in love with the boys as much as I do with Gwen."
Now, don't mind me, I'm just off to cry for the rest of the afternoon — what a sweetheart!
