Kelly Clarkson, an American singer and songwriter, has postponed her upcoming Las Vegas residency to focus on family because of her ex-husband and father of her children, Brandon Blackstock who is battling a serious illness.
The decision of hers was followed by months of speculation about the health of Blackstock, who had been reported ill for over the past years, which had limited his daily responsibilities. Clarkson announced the delay of her “Kelly Clarkson Show” engagements and the Las Vegas performances, which were originally scheduled for late August.
She made this decision to support their children, River and Remington. Brandon's health condition was undisclosed, and according to the sources, it was described as a significant pressure for Clarkson to prioritise the challenges of co-parenting at this time.
The rumours were spread on social media platforms as the fans and the media have speculated that Brandon has some chronic illness or some mental health struggles. Fans were speculating as there was no official confirmation regarding this matter.
The team of Kelly emphasised that Kelly is focused on her children’s well-being and safety, and asks the fans and media to respect her privacy. Blackstock was a former manager of Kelly, and the couple got divorced in 2022 after seven years of their marriage.
Kelly’s fans express their support towards her family during this hard time for them. The representative declined further comments on this, and the residency got rescheduled for early 2026.
