Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton are looking to cement their relationship further as they consider having a baby via surrogacy

Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton are taking a major step forward in their relationship. The couple is looking to have a baby through a surrogate.

US Weekly reports that an insider has revealed that after three years of dating, Shelton and Stefani are narrowing down on a surrogate to carry their child. The source says, “They are in the final stages of choosing the woman who will carry their baby. It’s extremely important to Gwen that she give Blake a biological child, and Blake is so excited.” The couple is determined to have a baby. Even though Blake is happy being present in the lives of Gwen's sons from her previous marriage, he wants children of his own, reveals the insider.

The singer loves the relationship Blake has with her sons, and the source adds that “Gwen just is so in awe of the love Blake has, not only for her but for the boys." Seeing his relationship with her sons, Gwen seems determined to have a biological child with Blake. The Daily Mail reports, that in March, Blake spoke to the 'Today Show' about his special relationship with Gwen's children. "It's easy to fall in love with those kids, they're special," he revealed. The singer also revealed that parenting has begun to come naturally to him. 'It's definitely an instinct that kind of kicks in. There are days where you go, "Oh my God, when does school start?" An hour later you're going, "God, I can't wait 'til they get home. They're so damn funny," continues Shelton.

The 49-year-old singer has three sons, Kingston, 12, Zuma, 10 and Apollo, four, with her ex-husband Gavin Rossdale, a relationship she was in for 14 years. Blake has been married twice himself, first to his long-time girlfriend Kaynette Gern and then to fellow country music star Miranda Lambert. Both times, he never had any children. 

Shelton and Stefani have been together since 2015 when they officially announced they were dating. USA Today reports, that last Sunday fans almost thought Blake was going to propose during the People's Choice Awards. When the singer was on stage accepting the award for best competition TV show for 'The Voice' along with Carson Daly, he called Gwen on stage shouting "I love her!". When Gwen came on stage fans were expecting a proposal but nothing happened. Instead, Gwen laughed and  said, "What am I doing up here?", looking at the crowd she continued, "I'm so excited to be with Blake Shelton."

"It's just crazy how much happened, you know what I mean? So many beautiful memories."

Gwen Stefani Said She is Not Really Living in the Hollywood 'Craziness’

Just a year after parting ways with husband Gavin Rossdale and starting a love affair with her The Voice co-star Blake Shelton, Gwen Stefani says she’s doing better than ever. The musician-turned-TV-personality chatted with People about what has changed and how she stays grounded.

“I don’t really feel like I live in the Hollywood craziness,” she said. “I have my regular life, my house, my school runs … I love family time.”

But beyond looking after her three boys — Kingston, 10,Zuma, 8, and Apollo, 2 — music has also been a hug source of strength as she moved beyond her marriage.

“Honestly, I was trying to help myself first and I didn’t have any vision about what the outcome would be when I was in the middle of it,” said Stefani about writing her latest album This Is What the Truth Feels Like. “It was about getting out what I needed to get out and using my gift to try to heal myself.”

Although parting with Rossdale last year was understandably painful, the 47-year-old explained during the interview that it was exactly what she needed.

“I feel like I’m in the next chapter moving into the next phase of whatever just happened,” she said. “Even though that year was challenging, it was also one of my favorite things that ever happened to me.”

So what’s next for the stunning songstress? The sky’s the limit! She’s executive producing the new animated series Kuu Kuu Harajuku, going strong with Shelton and always on the look out for the next big opportunity.

“I’m the happiest I’ve ever been,” she declared. “I’m in a good place and I’m so excited.There’s always amazing things to come.”

GWEN STEFANI REVEALS DETAILS ABOUT WEDDING WITH BLAKE SHELTON! ‘EVERYTHING IS GOING SO QUICKLY’

It’s only been over a year since Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton started dating, but wedding rumors have already been coming out. The two each just got out of previous marriages, that’s why it is quite surprising that they are ready to tie the knot again. The 46-year-old Stefani was married to Bush frontman Gavin Rossdale for 13 years, but ended the marriage when she discovered his affair with their former nanny. Shelton, the 40-year-old country superstar, on the other hand, has been married twice, but got divorced from Miranda Lambert last year.

During an interview with Ryan Seacrest, Stefani had a hard time answering when asked about becoming “Mrs. Shelton.” According to Hollywood Life, the former American Idol host surprised Gwen with that question, but she didn’t directly deny the rumors. Her answer hinted that there would be a wedding happening soon, but maybe the two are still quite busy to finalize things.

“I don’t know! God, I don’t know. Everything is going so quickly. I’m in the moment and um,” she gushed. “Look at me! You got me tongue-tied.”

There have been reports that the two will get married at his ranch in Oklahoma this holiday season, but the power couple haven’t made any announcement yet. The former No Doubt singer may not have directly confirmed their wedding, but she talked about how her boyfriend inspired her and the blessings that she has been receiving.

“I look at this year and I think, I just feel so awake,” the pop star said. “I feel so alive and so grateful and I promise you, the last couple of days of the tour when I knew it was coming to an end…I was so depressed because this year has been so full of so much joy, so much gratitude, and all the creativity that came out of it.”

Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton are both busy with their respective tours. Her last concert will be on October 16 in Los Angeles, while his series of shows will end on October 8 in New York. The couple will have approximately two months to prepare for their wedding if they will push for this holiday season.

A source confirmed to Us Weekly that the “Misery” hitmaker and The Voice coach are indeed planning a future together. They also reportedly hired celebrity wedding planner Jerri Woolworth, who is known for designing various gala and red carpet events.

“If there is a wedding date, they haven’t told their families yet,” an insider said. “They talk about their future and growing old together, but there aren’t specific plans like a dress or flowers.”

Although there aren’t any final plans yet, Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton reportedly know what they want on their big day. According to a source, they both prefer something low-key than their previous weddings. It could possibly be held at Blake’s ranch or just in the backyard.

“Gwen doesn’t really care, she is just in love with Blake and their life together,” an insider revealed.

The mother of three boys: Kingston, 10, Zuma, 8, and Apollo, 2, also wanted to have a baby girl with her boyfriend. Afew months ago, there were rumors coming out that Gwen Stefani is pregnant with a girl and the couple is expecting their baby this October.

According to Hollywood Life, Stefani and Shelton were so happy when they found out about the good news because they thought it would be impossible for her to get pregnant again because of her age. The songstress teased her followers by posting a photo of an ultrasound and captioning it “it’s a girl” with heart emojis.

It's a girl ❤️💕❤️gx

This could be her way of making fun of the pregnancy rumors instead of getting stressed out by it. There were even reports that she is having twins. A source told OK! magazine that Blake got emotional when he found out that he will be a dad to two little girls.

“He and Gwen are said to be a bit nervous, understandably, but elated,” an insider said. “Their love has already been a whirlwind, and now they could be a family in one fell swoop.”

It’s been months now and there’s still no baby bump sighting, which proves that the rumors are not true, but the wedding reports keep on buzzing, so fans may still see Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton get married this year.
