The romance and intimate relationship between Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani are not an unknown fact as it has been trending over the past few months.
However, Blake Shelton avoiding questions on the inevitable marriage proposition with Gwen Stefani has raised a lot of eyebrows and has sparked speculations on whether Blake is having any second thoughts on tying the knot with Gwen. The question in the minds of fans and media is why is Blake not yet ready to commit to Gwen?
On the other hand, there have been reports stating that Blake is enjoying his time, and is loving his association with yet another season of 'The Voice'. He also cherishes his association with Gwen and credits her to all the positive things which have happened to him. Despite these, he is not yet ready and comfortable to take his relationship with Gwen to the next level. He is too occupied with his professional engagements and is in no mood to complicate things.
Blake Shelton believes in progressing slowly in a relationship, and he feels that the intimacy and camaraderie that he shares with Gwen is a result of not rushing into any decision. However, Shelton is not the only one hesitating from going forward with the relationship. Stefani, too, has her reservations.
Gwen Stefani, who is on a summer tour, is not amused being separated from Blake for the entire time. She had asked Shelton to join the summer tour but he is not willing to do the same. Moreover, Stefani is also facing issues in ticket sales of her concerts, and Shelton joining her could possibly boost sales.
The marriage speculations between the two did surface a month ago as well when Shelton purchased a $ 1.2 million engagement ring for Stefani which, unfortunately, did not work out. However, the couple has been seen hanging around together, with friends and there is no visible drift between the two.
