Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani have joyfully welcomed their first child together, a baby girl named Harmony Iris Shelton. The couple, who tied the knot in 2021 after a decade-long romance, announced the delightful news on Instagram, accompanied by a heartfelt photo taken at Shelton’s Oklahoma ranch, a place that holds special significance for both of them.
The name Harmony Iris pays tribute to their musical journey, particularly their duet “Purple Irises.” Fans had varied reactions to the distinctive name—some admired its poetic and symbolic significance, while others expected a more conventional or country-inspired name from the couple.
Their journey to parenthood has not been without its hurdles. In 2024, the couple opted to expand their family through surrogacy, following heartfelt discussions and public remarks about their wish to have a child together. Shelton, who is already a dedicated stepfather to Stefani’s three sons, was reportedly very engaged throughout the entire process.
Now, the couple is embracing their new life as a blended family of six—along with a rescue kitten named Corn. Their lifestyle embodies a blend of country and pop influences, reflecting their careers and personalities. Life at the Oklahoma ranch provides both privacy and comfort as they embark on this new chapter.
Fans have eagerly expressed their excitement and support, celebrating the couple’s long-awaited milestone. With Harmony Iris now a part of the family, the Stefani-Sheltons continue to lead a life that is as heartfelt as their music and as distinctive as their love story.
