Blake Shelton, Miranda Lambert Reunite After Divorce? Singers Headline 2015 WE Fest
"The Voice" coach Blake Shelton and wife Miranda Lambert will get back together after announcing their divorce, but only for a performance.
"It's the summer's hottest country music ticket ... Miranda Lambert and Blake Shelton are both headlining the 2015 WE Fest in August, and no one's bailing despite their nasty divorce," reported TMZ.
"Promoters for the Minnesota festival confirm neither Blake nor Miranda have bowed out," it added. "Miranda is set to take the stage on Aug. 7, and Blake the next night. We're told there's little chance they'll cross paths. It's common for artists to fly in and out the day of their performance."
In a statement sent to ABC News, Blake Shelton and Miranda Lambert confirmed the divorce rumors.
The statement read,"This is not the future we envisioned and it is with heavy hearts that we move forward separately. We are real people, with real lives, with real families, friends and colleagues. Therefore, we kindly ask for privacy and compassion concerning this very personal matter."
But the divorce seemed amicable as Blake Shelton even managed to crack a joke when Miranda Lambert teased the "The Voice" judge in a social media post earlier.
The country singer first tagged "The Voice" coach with a photograph of him pushing a baby stroller as caught by Entertainment Tonight. Miranda Lambert then quipped, "@blakeshelton I knew it.... You WERE pregnant! This calls for a drink!"
Blake Shelton replied to Miranda Lambert's tweet as he wrote, "Ha!!!!! Busted... I wasn't JUST a fat ass. Drinking shall now begin...
According to TMZ, Blake Shelton's "The Voice" stint contributed to the divorce.
"Our sources say Blake's hit TV show was a constant source of conflict between them," the article said. "She says he had to spend between 7 and 8 months a year in Los Angeles ... a place she 'hates.'"
"Nevertheless, the sources say she would fly to L.A. to see him -- sometimes just for a day."
But Blake Shelton didn't really return the gesture by also coming to where she was working.
The sources say Miranda felt abandoned and ultimately said, "This is no way to live,'" the article added. "As for the cheating ... both sides are not backing down and accusing the other of infidelity."
