Gwen Stefani's dad Dennis celebrated his birthday on Fourth of July
The Voice star grew up in California with her parents, Patti and Dennis, who worked as a Yamaha marketing executive. The singer has an older brother, Eric, who was the keyboardist for No Doubt before leaving the band to start a career as an animator. Gwen also has two younger siblings, Jill and Todd.
Over the weekend, Gwen was pictured out in LA, having spent the majority of the lockdown in Oklahoma, with boyfriend Blake Shelton and her three sons, Kingston, Zuma and Apollo. During their time on Blake's ranch, they celebrated two birthdays, with both Kingston and Blake turning another year older.
Gwen has a close relationship with her dad
The country singer - who turned 44 last month - was treated to a tropical-themed party, complete with a show-stopping cake featuring figurines of him and Gwen.
Blake's 1300-acre ranch, named Ten Point Ranch, features a number of ponds, as well as a horse barn and home featuring four bedrooms. The singer also owns a home near Lake Texoma, also in Oklahoma, which features a recording studio.
Gwen and Blake met on the set of The Voice in 2014 and started dating after their respective marriages both ended in 2015. Blake was previously married to Miranda Lambert, while Gwen was married to Gavin Rossdale.
