 Gwen Stefani is breaking her silence about her relationship with fellow singer and The Voice co-star Blake Shelton, less than two days after they were photographed together as a couple for the first time.

Stefani, 46, talked about the 39-year-old country star in an interview with Dallas/Fort Worth radio station 103.7 KVIL that is set to air on Monday.

"He's a pretty rad guy, I have to say that," ET quoted Stefani as saying. 

Stefani talked to the radio station about how she has been dealing with her and Gavin Rossdale's recent divorce.

"Blake really helped me," she said, adding that fellow The Voice coach Pharrell Williams "was literally like a guardian angel," according to ET.

Stefani filed for divorce from Rossdale, 50, the father of their three sons, on Aug. 3 after 13 years of marriage. Less than a month earlier, Shelton, 39, filed papers to end his four-year marriage to fellow country star Miranda Lambert, 31.

Blake and Stefani later sparked romance rumors, which were recently fueled more by pics of the two showing some PDA at a Halloween party. His rep confirmed to E! News on Wednesday that the singers are dating. Stefani and Shelton were photographed for the first time as an official couple, showing PDA at a 2015 CMA Awards after party that night.

"Blake and Gwen are really happy," a source told E! News.

When asked about going public with Shelton, Stefani remained coy, telling the radio station, "We didn't! Like, somebody did. That's what's so crazy like, who announces that? Why would I do that?," according to ET.

The outlet also quoted the singer as saying that despite recent reports, she and Shelton have not written a new country song together.
