Gwen echoed the same sentiment when speaking with in November, saying: "I think he just wants more time. I don't know if people realize if he's doing two seasons a year, in between that he's touring.
"So he actually has two teams at the same time at a certain point, they overlap. It's a lot of brain power. It's a lot of time away from the family. Those kinds of things, he just got to a point, he just wants time at his ranch time to do the other things he loves to do," she continued, before playfully adding: "I'm totally speaking for you Blake, I'm sorry… I'm married to you so I can say whatever I want."
