As a long-time fan of Kelly Clarkson, I’ve always admired her strength and resilience, especially during challenging times. Her journey through her divorce with Brandon Blackstock has been an eye-opener, and it’s heartbreaking to see someone who once seemed so in love feeling lonely and limited.
Speaking about high-profile divorces, Kelly Clarkson’s split with Brandon Blackstock in 2020 was undeniably one of the most discussed for quite some time. The talk show host has expressed repeatedly that she isn’t keen on dating, a sentiment many would understand given the prolonged legal wrangling over child custody, property division, and so forth between her and her ex-husband, which lasted for two years before a settlement was finally reached (not to mention the ongoing legal battles). As it turns out, Clarkson has reportedly been single for longer than one might think.
On “The Kelly Clarkson Show” (airing its final episodes this week before resuming in 2025), the singer has been candidly discussing her experiences during her divorce from Brandon Blackstock, including creating an entire album around the subject matter. Notably, it’s been revealed that a source close to Kelly indicated she had already sensed the separation from her husband for some time before officially filing legal documents. The source shared:
Over the course of their marriage, Kelly began to sense a lack of companionship. Despite being legally married, Kelly often felt as though she was living a solo life alongside Brandon.
According to reports, Kelly Clarkson confessed that she remained in her marriage for an extended period, hoping to mend it. However, it’s claimed that there were indications that the couple was no longer functioning as a united front, with signs suggesting they had stopped working together effectively.
At school functions, Kelly often went alone since other parents usually brought both mothers and fathers. She felt incredibly thankful after being given sole custody of her kids, as they mean everything to her.
It’s clear that there could be various explanations for a child attending a school event with just one parent, yet it seems the speaker is suggesting that Brandon Blackstock’s absence from such events might not solely be due to work commitments. This particular instance aligns with statements made by Kelly Clarkson about her feelings of loneliness and insignificance during the later stages of their marriage. She expressed feeling “restricted” within the relationship, yet she didn’t fully comprehend the extent to which she had given up parts of herself until it was over.
Despite the absence of a romantic partnership for quite some time, as an ardent moviegoer, I can attest that the American Idol champion has been vocal about her personal life. When she unveiled fresh tunes revolving around divorce in 2023, she admitted to relishing the journey of self-discovery and emphasized that she remains unready for a romantic entanglement – a stance that persisted following her recent weight transformation when the dating question resurfaced once more.
Regardless of her marital status, Kelly Clarkson’s fans simply wish for her to be content with whatever she chooses. The Kelly Clarkson Show concludes its 2024 episodes on December 20th and will resume broadcasting from Monday, January 6, 2025.
