Blake Shelton has been open about how being a coach on The Voice has changed his life. In addition to the steady employment for the past 12 years and meeting several musicians who he’s stayed in contact with, the most significant thing to come out of his 23-season tenure is undoubtedly meeting his wife, Gwen Stefani. Nobody could have expected another familial relationship to be formed in the cowboy’s final season, but then along came Niall Horan. The duo have settled into a hilariously sweet father/son dynamic, and the One Direction alum indicated their relationship has already continued off camera, saying “it was fate” that brought them together on the competition show.
