Blake Shelton Introduces ‘Newest Member of the Family’ on Instagram

Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani on The Voice season 22

Blake Shelton recently took to Instagram to share his “newest member of the family” with fans. And no, it’s not what it sounds like — he and Gwen Stefani haven’t welcomed any kids, or even any new pets. He was actually talking about a new utility vehicle.

Blake Shelton Shares New Utility Vehicle on Instagram

According to Parade, Shelton’s new family member is a Kubota RTV-X1130 long bed utility vehicle. Shelton didn’t say that in the video, joking that he doesn’t “know what anything’s actually called.” Instead, he called it “the big long thing.”

Shelton then showed off the vehicle, which has a long bed in the back. He shared that he’s looking forward to using it during hunting season, saying, “Deer, gear, beer… Pull it up right here.” He also sent a message to his friends that they can’t borrow it.

“Don’t go ridin’ on my big long thing,” Shelton sang, before giving a funny look to the camera. Fans in the comments got a kick out of Shelton’s remarks about his new toy. Some suggested that he should turn it into a song.

Shelton Has a Ranch in Oklahoma

Shelton and Stefani spend much of their time on Ten Point Ranch in Tishomingo, Oklahoma. The property sits on more than 1,300 acres. Shelton grew up in Oklahoma before moving to Nashville to pursue his music career.

The couple also tied the knot on the ranch back in 2021, in a private chapel they had built on the property. Shelton frequently posts on social media about life on the ranch, and Stefani has shared about her love of gardening.

Stefani’s kids have also taken to the country lifestyle. Recently, her son Zuma performed at Shelton’s Ole Red bar, covering “Oklahoma Smokeshow” by Zach Bryan while wearing a cowboy hat and jeans just like his stepdad.
