Gwen and Blake have been together since 2015 and the happy couple announced their engagement in 2020. By July 2021, the pair had tied the knot at Blake's lavish Oklahoma ranch.

The couple have been favourites on the show for many years now, but Blake saddened fans recently when he announced his departure. Bodie Wade, who is on Blake's team, recently opened up to HELLO! about what it's been like being a part of the country star's group for his very last series.

The Voice judges during Monday night's show

"Blake truly is the patriarch of the Voice. Being that he is leaving the show soon, I really am honored to be a small part of Voice history by being a part of his team in such a large way!"

He added: "He really does care. He brings lots of awesome ideas to the table as well. I guess I’m not surprised, but I really didn’t have any expectations going into this whole process… all I can say is, I’m really really glad that I chose him to be my coach, and I am equally as glad that he has continued to choose me to move forward in each round of the competition thus far!"
