Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton are planning on tying the knot this summer.
The couple got engaged in October after five years together, and Blake has now revealed they don’t plan on waiting a full year before they get married because they want to have plenty of time to themselves before Blake is due to start filming ‘The Voice’ in November.
Speaking on the ‘Today’ show after confirming they’re planning a summer wedding, Blake said: “With COVID-19, it looks like it may be OK, but I don’t know. So, that’s tentatively the plan. We’ll see. I’m afraid if she and I wait until next November, then I’m right back into The Voice cycle again. And I really want to be able to have plenty of time before and after.”
Although the couple are still figuring out the details of their big day, they have received an offer from Miley Cyrus to be their singer.
Back in January, she tweeted: “@gwenstefani @blakeshelton I’ll be your wedding singer! I promise to be on my best behavior.
“Or worst. whatever you want! It’s your special day! Cheers to loving you both almost as much as you love each other! (sic)”
The pair are certainly fans of Miley, and Blake has since heaped praise on her talents as a performer.
He said: “Miley is one of the most talented singers I have ever met. She drives me crazy because she’s a lot like Kelly [Clarkson] in the way that they can burst out with this voice.
“If I’m going to sing, I have to think about it and go warm up. It’s unfair. Gwen was showing me that she even said, ‘I promise to be on my best behavior’.
“I’ve known Miley long enough [for her to have to say], ‘By the way, I’ll be nice when I get here.’ So that was nice of her.
“I don’t know what we’re going to do, but I still say Adam [Levine] owes me a full-band performance with Maroon 5, mostly because I want it to cost him. I would rather have Miley as a human being.”
