Gwen Stefani ignited marriage issues rumors after her recent outing without her husband, Blake Shelton.
Despite showing affection publicly, Stefani and Shelton's marriage has still been plagued by rumors. Amid the reported marital issues, the pair dealt with a new one after she was spotted in public without her husband.
Are Gwen Stefani, Blake Shelton Facing Marital Issues?
The Sun shared photos from Stefani's recent outing showing the No Doubt singer visiting her parents, Dennis Stefani and Patti Flynn, at their Los Angeles, Calif., home without Shelton.
The news outlet said Stefani looked "solemn" during the appearance, sparking rumors that her marriage has not been okay.
Their fans also noticed the changes, especially when Stefani had to change her lifestyle to suit Shelton's desire to enjoy country living.
One said, "Seems like she's adapted more to his lifestyle than him to hers. I don't know."
"She used to be the glam girl. Now she's all country," another said.
Meanwhile, others dismissed the claims and said the pair adapted to the changes and are both happy.

What the Rumors Claimed About the Marital Issues
The buzz has been lurking around the internet for months now.
One source told InTouch Weekly in July that the 53-year-old singer was "on edge" because of the tension between her and Shelton.
"Times are tough for Gwen and Blake," the source said. "They're spending a lot of time apart and the relationship is suffering. Friends are worried that if they don't address their problems before they spiral out of control, divorce might be in the cards for them."
The insider also noted how obvious it was that they were having issues.
Another unnamed tipster shared that there was "not much for them to talk about" because of their differences.
"She can put on cowboy boots and sing a country duet with Blake, but Gwen doesn't really fit in that whole country lifestyle," the source continued. "When she's in Oklahoma, she misses L.A. and all its conveniences."
In 2020, they bought a $13 million mansion in the Encino neighborhood. Per the source, Shelton was not comfortable living in the big city.
However, these claims should be taken with a grain of salt as Stefani and Shelton have always shown their love and respect for each other.
