“I can't imagine being married again,” Clarkson said to President Joe Biden's wife, after pointing out they had both been through divorces.

Before meeting the politician, Biden married former college football player Bill Stevenson in February 1970. They later separated in 1974. 

The former model turned educator met then Senator Joe Biden in March 1975 on a blind date set up by his brother Frank. They were married on June 17, 1977, at the Chapel at the United Nations in New York City, four-and-a-half years after the future President’s first wife and infant daughter died in a motor vehicle accident.

Clarkson, for her part, filed for divorce from her husband of seven years Brandon Blackstock in June 2020, citing irreconcilable differences. Since then, the split has been anything but amicable. 

The “Behind These Hazel Eyes” singer, who was awarded primary custody of their children River, 6, and Remington, 4,  even called the situation "horrible."

OK! was the first to reveal that theThe Voice coach filed a claim to the California Labor Commissioner's Office in October 2020, alleging that her agreement with Starstruck Management (owned by Blackstock and his dad, Narvel) was a "fraudulent and subterfuge device" for her managers to perform "illegal services" as agents, due to them being unlicensed in the state of California, and therefore she was owed all the money she earned while under such devices. 

Her ex fired back, allegedly denying the accusations that he was charging her outlandish fees during the duration of her contract with his management company. The talent agent reportedly claimed that Clarkson is not entitled to any money that he, his father or their management company earned while working with her over the past 13 years.
