Kelly Clarkson Dishes on Her ‘hard’ Divorce With Brandon Blackstock: “Relationships Don’t Always Evolve How You Want”

The new norm for her. Kelly Clarkson is using music as an outlet for her feelings during her high-profile divorce from Brandon Blackstock. Ex-boyfriend Brandon Blackstock, according to Kelly Clarkson’s Statements In a story published on September 7 by Variety, the 40-year-old former American Idol champion said, “The entire divorce thing happened and I needed to write it” when asked about her next studio recording.

You may be quite furious in that frame of mind, and I wasn’t sure if I was going to release it. That being said, the album’s songs cover a wide range of feelings. It’s like the arc of a romance, with a lovely, sweet beginning and a more complex middle. And things don’t always turn out the way you expect them to.

Nearly two years have passed since Clarkson and Blackstock, both 45, originally went their own ways in June 2020, and in that time she has been working on her most recent album. Kelly Clarkson and Brandon Blackstock: Here’s What We Know About Their Split “Many feelings were involved when my ex and I initially split up.

The “Miss Independent” singer said it was challenging for the media. My producer and I were joking about how we once wrote 25 songs in a week, and it all came up in conversation the other day. Those are largely the tracks featured on the album. For the most part, I wrote these almost two years ago. Then I told my label, ‘I can’t talk about this until I’ve gone through it,’ and it’s just taken some time to accomplish that,” Clarkson continued. Because of this, the previous two years have been filled with a lot of Christmas activities, and I found myself thinking, “Well, that’s happy!”

Clarkson, originally from Texas, recently concluded her divorce from her husband and was awarded primary custody of their two children, a girl named River and a son named Remington. “We moved everything back 30 minutes this season [on The Kelly Clarkson Show]. Clarkson explained her decision to take time off to drive her children to school in an interview with Variety. Then my nanny comes and gets them. At least I get to spend the mornings with them and then the evenings.”

She went on, “Don’t conceal things from your kids.’ That’s probably the most essential thing I’ve learned in counseling, especially after this divorce. It’s OK if they see you weep or if they realize you’ve had a hard day; just don’t talk about something you shouldn’t talk about. Feelings of guilt arise, such as “I need to put my best foot forward as a mother because I don’t want them to be affected.” But when you give children the freedom to show compassion, they develop the ability to say things like, “Oh, man, I’m sorry you had a bad day.”

Before Kelly Clarkson and Brandon Blackstock’s Breakup, Fans Can Look Back at Their Blended Family Photos. The former coach on The Voice is getting ready for the fourth season of her own talk show. In the 4 o’clock spot, once occupied by Ellen DeGeneres for 19 years, you’ll now find The Kelly Clarkson Show.

Clarkson told Variety, “Nobody is going to replace Ellen’s shoes.” That’s why I have so much respect for the Ellens [of the world]. Rarely will you find another person capable of achieving what they achieved? My squad is pumped, and I have faith in their abilities. However, I am in no way attempting to fill anybody else’s shoes; the thought of doing so is too daunting.

The “Stronger” singer, who is also a busy mother, took some time off during the summer to relax with her family. In a recent Today show appearance, Clarkson said, “It’s clearly been a hard two years, so it was very essential to me to, like, shut down for a minute.” The singer and actress had recently returned from a vacation with her family in Montana. My sister, my nephew, and I spent the entire summer in the mountains, just chilling out in nature, and we were able to do this because I actually four-wheeled in the mountains and because I had a lot of water on my property.

The kids were with me and with their dad. My children normally spend a lot of time on the road due to our divorce, so when we were all together in Montana for the first time, I think they finally felt at home. Clarkson and Blackstock had been embroiled in a protracted court dispute over their former joint home in Montana during their divorce.

The music executive has reportedly moved out of his ex-home, wife’s as reported by Us Weekly earlier this year. According to individuals who spoke to Us, Blackstock was “ultimately persuaded out of” fighting Clarkson to stay at the property, but he remains a “constant thorn in her side.”
