It’s not uncommon for shoppers at Round Top’s spring and fall antiques shows to see a celebrity or two. This year’s sightings included singer-songwriter Gwen Stefani.
She was spotted shopping at Marburger Farm Antique Show on Saturday and later that night she and fiance/country singer Blake Shelton, were at an Italian eatery owned by Houston restaurateur Armando Palacios and his wife, Cinda.
Stefani and Shelton announced their engagement last October and reportedly will marry this summer. The couple met when they both were coaches on NBC’s “The Voice” in 2015.
Instagram posts capture Stefani at various dealers’ booths as well as a photo shopping with her interior designer, Martyn Lawrence Bullard, who in the past has visited Round Top antiques shows both as a panel speaker and with clients. Bullard’s celebrity clientele includes Tommy Hilfiger, Ellen Pompeo and several in the Jenner-Kardashian family.
TV personality Carson Kressley, of Bravo’s long-running hit show “Queer Eye for the Straight Guy,” also posted his own Instagram photo — in jeans and a big ol’ turquoise belt buckle — from his recent visit to Round Top.

The video shows Stefani and Saweetie singing and dancing in a high school gym and locker room. The pair are joined by several backup dancers.
Stefani released the original version of “Slow Clap” in March. The song will appear on her forthcoming fifth studio album, Let Me Reintroduce Myself .
“Generally, I just wanted to make an album that was full of joy and hope. I think the one line in [‘Slow Clap’] is, ‘Are you rooting for me like I’m rooting for you?’ I feel like that was just kind of where I was at in that moment when I wrote the song,” she said.
“I’m still writing,” she added. “I think that’s what’s been really fun about this project, is to be able to drop singles and actually still be working on new music as I’m doing it.”
