Blake Shelton Allegedly Interested In Gwen While Married
While the rest of America is shocked that The Voice co-stars Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefaniare now booed up, ex-wife Miranda Lambert reportedly says this comes as no surprise to her.
According to E!, a source reveals that the two had sparks flying long before the divorce:
‘They were always pretty flirty. Miranda and Blake were on the rocks on and off and knew that this could always be a possibility.’ says the insider.
It was confirmed that the pair were a thing after they were caught being extra cuddly at Maroon Five’sHalloween party.
Despite the quick turn around, Miranda and Blake are allegedly keeping things friendly–Blake even referred to them as buddies.
But our heart hurts a little bit for Miranda, who shared a little bit of her pain in her CMA acceptancespeech.
‘Hi, guys,’ the recently single Lambert, 31, remarked. ‘I needed a bright spot this year.’
We all know how hard it is to watch a former lover parading around their new boo.
