The stunning pendant, crafted from 18-carat yellow gold and adorned with sapphire, tsavorite, diamonds and black onyx, retails for $22,500 or $27,000 when paired with a 20-inch ball chain.
Clarkson shares her children with Blackstock, whom she was married to from October 2013 until March 2022. Blackstock died earlier this month at age 48 after a private, three-year battle with melanoma, the most aggressive form of skin cancer.
Following his death, Clarkson reportedly experienced feelings of guilt, questioning if the stress from their contentious divorce contributed to his health issues. "Kelly is aware of talk that stress can impact the body and make someone more susceptible to cancer," a source told Daily Mail. "Although the timing could be purely coincidental, she knows how much tension the divorce and lawsuits put on them."
The insider added that "being there for her kids is helping her cope with the onslaught of emotions."
Clarkson and Blackstock were married for nearly seven years and share two children, River and Remington. Blackstock also has two children from a previous marriage: Savannah, 23 and Seth, 18.

In an intriguing twist, after Blackstock's passing, it surfaced that he had been involved with Clarkson's former assistant, Brittney Marie Jones.
Allegedly, Jones cheated on her husband with Blackstock, leading to a controversial revelation. Her ex-husband, Greg LaPoint, discovered the affair during the summer of 2023. "He got screwed over due to [Jones and Blackstock's] fling starting during his marriage," a source shared.
