When relationships don’t work out and there are children involved, many parents try to remain a united front for the sake of consistency. We’ve seen divorced couples like Tom Brady and Gisele Bündchen talk about co-parenting, and even Kim Kardashian and Kanye West have played nice at their little ones’ sporting events. Gwen Stefani and Gavin Rossdale, meanwhile, have allegedly taken a different approach, and it sounds like Blake Shelton wants to be a big part of that. He opened up about how he sees his role as a stepfather to Kingston, Zuma and Apollo.

Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani’s relationship started in 2015, a year after meeting as coaches on "The Voice." Both were going through tough divorces at the time — Shelton with fellow country singer Miranda Lambert and Stefani with the Bush frontman. Shelton and the Stefani were together for six years before tying the knot in 2021, and the country singer opened up about how he approaches his relationship with his wife’s three sons.
