Miranda Lambert and Blake Shelton shocked the country world when they announced that they were ending their four-year marriage, earlier this month. However, the relationship was further complicated when cheating rumors began making their way into the divorce drama. It was even being speculated that Miranda had stepped out on her The Voice husband with fellow country singer Chris Young. However, the star is opening up again and saying that he was not the reason for the couple's breakup.
Us Weekly reported on the duo's split back in July, when Blake and Miranda released a joint statement.
"It is with heavy hearts that we move forward separately. We are real people, with real lives, with real family, friends and colleagues. Therefore, we kindly ask for privacy and compassion concerning this very personal matter," the pair explained in the press release.

However, compassion was not granted to colleague Chris Young, who was dragged right into the middle of the drama.
Young spoke out to Entertainment Tonight where he assured fans that he had nothing to do with the split and that he wasn't too happy that his name got caught in the divorce crossfire.
"Man it sucks that I got put in this situation with two people who are my friends," the star explained to ET. "It's just so weird getting pulled into something like that when it just wasn't true."
He also revealed that he was in direct contact with Blake the day that the divorce news broke, according to Taste of Country.
"I was in touch with Blake all day that day," Young explained. "He was like, 'Dude, sorry.' I was like, 'I know man.'"
In conclusion, Chris revealed, "I have not seen them. I've definitely texted and called both of them. They're both good since [the last] time I've heard from them. As good as you can be... They're both really great friends still, so it's just one of those things."
