Kelly Clarkson has opened up about the complexities of sharing parenting duties for her two children, River Rose and Remington Alexander Blackstock, who are nine and seven years old, respectively. She sees her children primarily, with their father spending a limited amount of time with them each month.

In a recent discussion about her approach to raising her children, Kelly revealed her stance on keeping her kids off social media until they reach 18, a decision she believes will shield them from the spotlight due to her fame.

Kelly mentioned that while she has set this rule in her household, she would not interfere if their father chose to allow social media access during his time with them, commenting, “You’re there four days a month. Make the most of it.” Nonetheless, it appears both Kelly and Brandon are in agreement about keeping their children away from social media platforms.

Kelly also shared that she does not hover over her children excessively and appreciates their growing independence. Despite the challenges posed by a split family dynamic, she strives to be as involved as possible in her children’s lives.

The resolution of her marriage, which ended in divorce in June 2020 after nearly seven years, was finalized in March 2022, with Kelly being granted primary custody of River and Remington. Brandon is entitled to one weekend a month with the children.

The financial terms of their divorce included Kelly paying $115,000 in spousal support each month until January 2024, along with $45,600 in child support, and a one-time payment of $1.3 million as part of their settlement, which upheld their prenuptial agreement.

Kelly has always prioritized her role as a mother and sought the best for her children, even relocating to New York to provide a stable and happy environment for them, especially noting her son’s positive experience in his new school. The move also represented a fresh beginning for Kelly, who had felt discontent in Los Angeles for years.

Amidst these personal developments, fans have playfully speculated about Kelly’s romantic prospects, particularly encouraging a connection with Jason Momoa following his friendly mention of Kelly on social media.
