Blake Shelton 'divorcing Miranda Lambert over two incidences of infidelity'

Blake Shelton is reportedly blaming Miranda Lambert's alleged infidelity for the reason that they're parting ways after four years.

TMZ claims that Blake, 39, is 'very upset' in the wake of the separation but was forced to file for divorce when information of two separate men confirmed to him that she had been unfaithful.

And, while they jointly admitted divorce was not the outcome they wanted, it's also been claimed that they have different ideals on children. 

The website cites 'multiple sources' for news that Blake was told Miranda 'hooked up' with country singer Chris Young and a second man in recent years.
Miranda's history with Chris dates back as far as two years ago when he joined her for the On Fire Tour and opened her shows.

The duo forged a deep friendship, from which romance rumours were first sparked in February 2015 as they were spotted getting close at a Nashville bar. 

Sources confirmed to TMZ that it was just not Chris who motivated the divorce because Blake was tipped off about 'certain information' relating to the second man, which 'elevated things in Blake's head from rumor to fact,' the website claims.

Meanwhile, The New York Post's PageSix reports that she wanted to be a free spirit.

'He is eager to have children,' the source claimed. 'But she really enjoys not being tied down. I think they both were off on what the time frame would be.

'They are never together, and he was wanting them to move close to being together. She really loves her career and touring. She has the ability to go and record albums when she wants and to tour.'

MailOnline contacted a representative for comment, who reiterated the couple's joint separation statement, reading: '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.'

Blake and Miranda married in 2011 after five years together, they share a number of animals including six dogs, a flock of chickens, two pot bellied pigs, horses, and three cats.

Their shared home, which was featured in Country Living magazine in May was built around their 15 rescue pets.

As guest editor for the June issue, Miranda gushed: 'We're building a new house, and I've been saving inspiration on Pinterest. A friend of mine recently said, "I can see your Pinterest boards, and all you have on there are dog rooms,''

'My husband and I have 15 rescue animals, and I spend way too much time planning our pets' spaces. I'm like, okay, I probably need to move on to the laundry room!'

The couple are understood to have a pre-nup in place; she'll keep their marital home in Nashville while he will keep their Oklahoma ranch. 

Miranda broke down in front of 10,000 fans on stage at the Cheyenne Frontier Days Festival this week, where she performed her Grammy winning hits including The House That Built Me, a song given to her by Blake.
