As Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton near their four-year wedding anniversary, the pop star is opening up about the spiritual glue that holds their relationship together. In a candid conversation with Drew Barrymore, Stefani credited her Catholic faith as a guiding force in their love story.
“The best advice I’ve received about love?” Gwen reflected. “Make sure you have a third party,” she said, gesturing skyward. For the No Doubt frontwoman, that third party is God.
Stefani’s growing openness about her spirituality hasn’t gone unnoticed—and it’s stirred a polarizing response online. Some fans praised her authenticity and consistency, while others called her recent faith-based ventures a “trad wife transformation.” Comments ranged from confusion to accusations of political alignment, especially following her promotion of the Hallow prayer app and retweets of conservative-leaning content.
Still, supporters quickly came to her defense. “Gwen has always been a person of faith,” one fan wrote. “She’s just being louder about it now.” Another added, “Her belief system is part of what drew her and Blake together.”
In a world where celebrity identity often shifts with trends, Gwen’s devotion stands firm—even when the internet has opinions.
