Blake Shelton seemingly received the stamp of approval from Gwen Stefani's parents almost right away. The "Don't Speak" singer took Shelton to meet his future father-in-law, Dennis Stefani, in late 2015, not long after they went public with their romance. "Blake helped Gwen's dad around the house," a source told People that December. And there was nothing but good vibes all around. "They seemed very friendly and like they were getting along great," the source added. Shelton's relationship with his mother-in-law, Patti Stefani, was facilitated by her love for country music.
In fact, Patti was a die-hard fan of Shelton way before her daughter fell in love with him, and couldn't have been more excited to learn about the relationship, Gwen shared on "The Drew Barrymore Show" in June. But Shelton's status as a country megastar never affected his interpersonal relationships, including with his in-laws. "He's the same guy no matter where he goes [...] When my dad and mom come over, they get to see that," she said on Apple's "At Home With" in December 2020.
Indeed, Shelton blended right in with Gwen's family when they attended a football game for one of Gwen's sons in February. Shelton, Gwen, Patti, and Dennis all sat in the bleachers and talked throughout the game, the Daily Mail noted. In 2022, Shelton also helped celebrate Patti during Mother's Day by paying her a weekend visit in May, according to In Touch Weekly.
