During the pandemic, Clarkson and Blackstock spent their time together at their property in Montana. It was from there that Clarkson recorded The Kelly Clarkson Show and her appearances on NBC’s The Voice.
In the documents, filed June 4th, Clarkson, who filed as Kelly Blackstock, is requesting joint legal and physical custody of the children. The court documents say the pair had a prenuptial agreement.
