To stay on the property, Blackstock was required to pay $12,500 in monthly rent and in June 2022, he finally vacated.
‘Wanted to make it beautiful’
The host of the Kelly Clarkson Show was awarded primary physical custody of the two children and is now living in New York. And in 2023, Blackstock was ordered to pay his ex-wife $2,641,374 for “overstepping in his managerial role and unlawfully procuring deals,” according to People.
“I think the thing about divorce – especially having it publicized, and people thinking they know the whole thing – the hardest part of that is, like, it wasn’t an overnight decision.” The “Stronger” singer told People. “I wanted to make it beautiful. I wanted to make it awesome. I wanted to make it everything it possibly could be, and sometimes that just doesn’t happen.”
Ranching headquarters
Now Blackstock is still living the cowboy life in Montana. The famous singer’s ex-husband founded Valley View Rodeo in 2023, “a multi-faceted organization dedicated to keeping the western lifestyle alive in the modern day.”
And, his executive assistant is Brittany Jones, who according to her LinkedIn “managed day to day for artist, Kelly Clarkson under manager, Brandon Blackstock in Los Angeles for music and television.”
Jones’ profile also shares that “after a change in management for Ms. Clarkson,” she “transitioned to Executive Assistant for Mr. Blackstock’s cattle operation in Montana” where she runs “the office and administration work,” and fulfills “personal assistant duties for Mr. Blackstock.”
