Kelly Clarkson’s legal win: Ex Brandon Blackstock ordered to Pay $2.6 Million | Hollywood
Kelly Clarkson has successfully argued in court that her ex-husband, Brandon Blackstock, owes her more than $2.6 million for royalties she gave him to close transactions while he was her manager. On November 21, the labor commissioner in California ruled that Brandon got Kelly several deals, like her job as a judge on The Voice and BMA host. These deals should have been handled by her talent agents at Creative Artists Agency (CAA). This decision is another win for Kelly Clarkson in her divorce battle.

These obligations stem from his actions as a manager, which included securing transactions that were better suited for a talent agency. His attorneys are currently preparing to file an appeal in response to the decision.

More about Kelly Clarkson and Brandon Blackstock’s relationship
Following nearly seven years of relationship, Kelly and Brandon filed for divorce in 2020. Together, the couple is parent to two children: a son named Remington Alexander and a girl named River Rose. From his prior marriage to Melissa Ashworth, Brandon is also the father of a daughter named Savannah and a son named Seth.
Back in March when Kelly appeared on Angie Martinez’s IRL podcast she revealed how her children felt over the ongoing legal battle. “I literally ask my kids every night when we’re snuggling up in the bed, ‘Are you happy? And if you’re not, what could make you happier? A lot of times they’ll be like, ‘You know, I’m just really sad. I wish Mommy and Daddy were in the same house.'”
Kelly further added “They’re really honest about it. I get it. I’m from a divorced family as well. It sucks.”
