Breaking Up is Hard to Do
As we mentioned, neither Blake nor Gwen were single at the time they met, which stopped them from pursuing a relationship. Gwen was married to Gavin Rossdale, and Blake was married to country singer Miranda Lambert. In 2015, both Blake and Gwen got divorced within just one month of each other. This was when real speculation started.

It couldn’t just be a coincidence, right? Fans immediately started accusing Blake of all kinds of things. However, Gwen ending her marriage after 3 kids and 13 years together was even more surprising. Did the unexpected breakups have anything to do with their blossoming relationship? There could be more to the story.
