Us Weekly reports that Kelly Clarkson is planning to get back into the dating scene following her divorce from Brandon Blackstock. Sources tell the outlet that the "Stronger" singer wanted to wait until her marriage was officially over to test the waters again. However, she is ready to find love in the future. "She hasn't been dating and has been waiting until she is legally divorced, which will be in the next two weeks," the insider dished. Clarkson reportedly even knows exactly what she's looking for in her future partner.
The source claims that Clarkson will enlist the help of her friend and fellow "The Voice" coach Blake Shelton to help her find her perfect match, and she's got a list of requirements that they'll have to meet. "She wants a younger, up-and-coming country singer [who] understands the business," the insider said.
Clarkson and Blackstock married in 2013 and share two children together — daughter River, 7, and son Remington, 5 — whom they'll continue to co-parent. The couple announced their plans to end their marriage in June 2020. Clarkson filed for divorce and cited "irreconcilable differences" as the reason for the split. The talk show host has also been candid about her divorce and previously revealed that her children are her main focus right now. "As long as you make sure it's about the children and their best interests, then we're both on board," Clarkson admitted.
