ACM Awards 2026: Complete Winners List

There's no doubt Gwen Stefani's kids are fans of Blake Shelton's music.

In fact, the No Doubt frontwoman's sons Zuma, 17, and Apollo, 12—who she shares with ex-husband Gavin Rossdale—were rocking out to the country music star at the 2026 ACM Awards in Las Vegas May 17.

As Blake performed a cover of "The Gambler" in honor of late songwriter Don Schlitz, Zuma—clad in a black cowboy hat with a matching blazer—bopped along to the song in the audience.

And when Blake was offstage, video footage circulating on social media showed the 49-year-old sharing a sweet hug with Apollo.

Gwen, who is also mom to 19-year-old son Kingston, was not at the awards ceremony. However, Blake previously noted that Gwen has been busy with work for the No Doubt residency at the Las Vegas Sphere to attend some of his shows.

“She’s over there at the other venue,” the "God's Country" singer quipped during his May 6 show at Caesars Palace. "What kind of d--khead books us on the same night, every single night?"

And Blake has no time for rumors that he and his wife of nearly five years are on the outs.

“I started noticing these articles popping up about ‘Blake and Gwen, they’re split up,’” he said in a January interview with Country Countdown USA. “‘They’re not even seeing each other anymore, they’re going through a divorce.’”

Blake continued, “I don’t believe anything anymore that I see on the internet."

Besides, the six-time ACM Award winner much prefers to spend quality time with Gwen away from the spotlight. In March, he revealed that he and the "Just a Girl" singer were digging into their farm life in Oklahoma.

“This year, we decided we're gonna do some actual, real professional gardening—farming-type stuff out here,” he quipped in an Instagram video. “Me and my wife, her name's Gwen.”

Sharing footage of their work-in-progress vegetable garden, he continued, “We were out here putting this plastic out yesterday, just she and I, nobody else."

“My stepdad used to always say cucumbers aren't good for anything but a d--k on the snowman, but we're going to plant some anyway,” he jokingly added. “I don't eat any vegetables in the first place, but it's fun.”
