Blake Shelton and Miranda Lambert are officially divorced. An Oklahoma judge finalized the country music couple's divorce on Monday, July 20, just hours after they announced they were heading for divorce after four years of marriage.
The former couple said in a joint statement, "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."
According to TMZ, Blake was the one who filed for divorce. He filed his documents at an Oklahoma court two weeks ago. Sources told the site that Blake and Miranda's divorce was easy because they had a prenup. All of their financial arrangements have been worked out.
According to the sources, Blake will get the ranch in Oklahoma while Miranda will get the family home in Nashville. The "Little Red Wagon" songstress reportedly has been moving her show animals off the Oklahoma ranch in the last few days.
Blake and Miranda first met during an onstage duet at CMT's 100 Greatest Duets Concert back in 2005 when he was still married to his wife Kaynette Gern. They began dating in 2006, got engaged in 2010 and got married in 2011.
