Gwen Stefani and husband Blake Shelton continued to put split speculation to rest as they shared a steamy kiss while celebrating New Year’s Eve on Wednesday.
The 56-year-old songstress – who was recently embroiled in divorce rumors with Shelton which sparked up last year – jumped to her Instagram stories as the couple attended a celebration to ring in 2026.
In one clip, the pair cozied up together before the countdown with the text, ‘Last few hours of 2025,’ added towards the bottom.
And when the clock struck midnight, the singers happily cheered while joined by other close pals.
Stefani filmed a second video and at one point she turned to glance up at her husband before he gave her a kiss.
The country star placed his hands around her face for the passionate smooch as they stepped into the new year.

While it is not known where exactly the lovebirds took part in their New Year’s Eve celebrations, Stefani and Shelton spent the holidays together – which she briefly talked about last month in December.
During an appearance on the Today show, the Hollaback Girl hitmaker opened up about their travels during the festive season.
‘Blake and I, we just bounce back and forth between Oklahoma constantly. This December, we’re going back there, and then we’re going to bounce back to L.A.’
The star added, ‘We just had Thanksgiving. We had two of them. It’s been a blessing to be able to do that.
‘We’ll do more of the bouncing back and forth, back and forth. I love it. Oklahoma, this time of year, is the best. It’s so beautiful.’
Stefani is also mom to Kingston, 19, Zuma, 17, and Apollo, 11 – whom she shares with ex-husband Gavin Rossdale.
Upon tying the knot with Stefani in 2021, Shelton – who was previously married to Miranda Lambert – became stepfather to her kids.

Shortly before Christmas, Stefani and Shelton put on a united front for a lowkey outing together in L.A. as they picked up a few items at the Italian market Eataly.
It came as the pair – who tied the knot in 2021 – were embroiled in split speculation which sparked up partially due to the pair not attending major award ceremonies last year.
Shelton had also dropped a breakup track titled Hangin’ On back in March – which he later expressed had ‘no reflection’ on his relationship with Stefani.
Sources told TMZ in December that the two stars were ‘completely baffled’ over the split speculation.
The insiders also told the outlet that Stefani and Shelton don’t know where the rumors began and that their relationship still going strong.
A separate source also told People that Stefani and Shelton are ‘solid’ when it comes to their marriage amidst the divorce speculation.
‘There is no truth to the split rumors. They’ve just been juggling demanding schedules. When they are together, it’s just so obvious how solid they are.’
Daily Mail had reached out to Stefani and Shelton’s reps for comment at the time, but did not immediately hear back.

Both music artists have filtered through a busy schedule in 2025, with the performers dropping albums.
In March of last year, Stefani released the deluxe version of her 2024 album Bouquet with Shelton dropping his 13th studio album For Recreational Use Only two months later.
Last month, a separate source told the Daily Mail that Stefani and Shelton are like ‘every other couple’ who have been married for nearly five years.
‘Things are pretty good with them, certainly not as dire as the rumors,’ the insider said. ‘They are having to be a lot more intentional about spending time together and keeping in contact.’
The pair have experienced ‘a few bumps in the road’ which was due to ‘their busy schedules.’

This past April, Stefani revealed the ‘best advice’ she has gotten since tying the knot with Shelton.
‘Best advice would probably be make sure you have a third party,’ she said on The Drew Barrymore Show. The singer pointed upwards as she made the comment, seemingly referencing to God.
She then gave insight into her lowkey date nights with the country star.
‘I’m literally couch, blanket, chips. I just have the whole thing – the dogs down right there, and then we have two couches, and Blake’s on that couch, and we’re like, “Hi!”‘
Stefani then humorously added, ‘I would sit next to him but he’s gigantic, and we don’t fit anywhere.’

And after saying goodbye to 2025, both she and Shelton have big plans for this year – including Las Vegas concerts.
Back in October, it was announced that her band No Doubt is set to reunite for a residency at The Sphere in Las Vegas.
The group will take to the stage for six dates in May 2026 – while six additional dates were added the following month in June.
And Shelton will hit the stage at the Colosseum at Caesar’s Palace for eight nights this month beginning on January 15.
