Clarkson—mom to kids River, 12, and Remington, 10, with late ex-husband Brandon Blackstock—moved to New York City in 2023 after relocating The Kelly Clarkson Show from Los Angeles to the Big Apple. At the time, she shed light on how the move proved beneficial for her young family, especially after her 2022 divorce from the talent manager.
“I was very depressed for the last three years—and maybe a little before that, if I’m being honest. I think I really needed the change,” Clarkson told People that year. “I needed it for me and my family as well. My kids are thriving here. We’re just doing so much better, and we needed a fresh start.”
But after filming seasons five through seven inside the city’s iconic 30 Rock building, she announced in February that she’d be breaking away from the talk show for good.
