Gwen Stefanialmost missed her own proposal!
During her appearance onThe Kelly Clarkson Showthis week, the 51-year-old revealed that she nearly canceled her visit toBlake Shelton’s Tishomingo, Oklahoma ranch, where he asked the big question.
“I had no idea, obviously. In fact, I was trying to get out of going to Oklahoma because it was getting too complicated withCOVIDand the family,” she told Clarkson, 38. “I was like, ‘I think we should just cancel the trip.’ It was one of those. Then we got it together and we ended up going. [Our family] was all there.”
“We’re building a house there. We were going to go from one part of the land to the other part of the land to go to see the house. And meanwhile, Blake had had this ring for a couple of weeks and nobody knew,” she said.
Stefani also revealed a sweet detail about her fiancé’s pre-proposal: Shelton sought permission from her dad!

Later in the segment, Clarkson showed cute photos of Shelton as a little boy, referring tohis pageant past, which Shelton talked about when visiting the show in October.
“I’m having a weird moment. I’m on your show talking about my engagement,” Stefani said. “It’s just like what?”
“And you’re engaged to this guy who’s a beautiful pageant queen, I mean king!” Clarkson said with a laugh, correcting herself.
