Kelly Clarkson might just be back on the prowl, as the talk show host has requested to be declared legally single while finalizing her divorce from Brandon Blackstock.
The 39-year-old songstress and her attorney filed documents obtained by Us Weekly moving for a separate trial to terminate her marital status. If granted, the “Stronger” singer would legally be considered single while their divorce proceedings continue.

The pair of exes will also be expected to meet to resolve issues still pending in their divorce, according to a notice from the court.
Clarkson filed for divorce from Blackstock in June 2020 after seven years of marriage.
November 2020 saw Clarkson awarded primary physical custody of the couple’s children — daughter River Rose, 6, and son Remington Alexander, 4 — and Blackstock request close to $450K a month in spousal support from Clarkson. However, per the couple’s prenuptial agreement, the latter will be an uphill battle, as Blackstock is not entitled to spousal support.
The “Since U Been Gone” artist also alleged Blackstock acted fraudulently as her manager, which he’s since denied.
It better news for the powerhouse vocalist, she’ll soon be taking over Ellen’s prime television slot with her own “The Kelly Clarkson Show.”
