Kelly Clarkson, the original American Idol, captivated the world with her powerhouse vocals and heartfelt lyrics. The singer is

known as one of the best talents the show has ever found.

However, as amazing as her career has gone, her relationship with Brandon Blackstock – the stepson of country music legend

Reba McEntire – was filled with just as much emotion and unexpected twists as her biggest hits.

The singer of “A Moment Like This” and her former manager, who wed in 2013, seemed to be the ultimate duo and fans

couldn’t get enough of their chemistry, both on and off stage.

But, in June 2020, the 42-year-old filed for divorce after nearly seven years of marriage, citing irreconcilable differences.

Recently, an insider told Page Six that the hitmaker “felt single” when she was married to Blackstock, 48.
