Kelly Clarkson will reportedly be returning to The Kelly Clarkson Show for season 7 this fall, following the tragic death of her ex-husband Brandon Blackstock.
The beloved talk show host's future had been uncertain amid recent speculation and absences, but People has confirmed her return to television.
Blackstock, who served as Clarkson's former talent manager during their marriage, passed away on Thursday, August 7, at the age of 48. The music industry executive had been privately battling cancer for more than three years before his death.
"It is with great sadness that we share the news that Brandon Blackstock has passed away," a rep for the family told People in a statement. "Brandon bravely battled cancer for more than three years. He passed away peacefully and was surrounded by family. We thank you for your thoughts and prayers and ask everyone to respect the family's privacy during this very difficult time."
The 43-year-old singer and talk show host's unexplained absence from multiple shows in March takes on new context in light of Blackstock's health struggles. During that time, celebrity guest hosts including Brooke Shields, Wanda Sykes and Josh Groban filled in for Clarkson, leading to widespread fan speculation about the reasons behind her time away.
Many fans are now connecting her time away to her ex-husband's illness, suggesting she may have been prioitizing family during a particularly difficult period in Blackstock's health battle.
Clarkson launched her Las Vegas residency on July 11, following the conclusion of The Kelly Clarkson Show's sixth season in June. However, she was forced to postpone several August performances to focus on her family during Blackstock's final days.
On Wednesday, August 6, just one day before Blackstock's passing, Clarkson shared a personal update on Instagram explaining her decision to cancel the remainder of her August Las Vegas shows.
"While I normally keep my personal life private, this past year, my children's father has been ill," she revealed in the post. "I am sincerely sorry to everyone who bought tickets to the shows and I so appreciate your grace, kindness and understanding."
The Grammy-winning artist emphasized her commitment to being "fully present" for their two children, River, 11, and Remington, 9, during this period.
