Dec 04, 2025 by apost team

Kelly Clarkson offered fans a touching look into her life as a mom when she shared a rare photo of her two children during a festive winter outing in New York City. 

The singer and television host, born in 1982, posted the image on Nov. 30, 2025, featuring her daughter, River Rose, born in 2014, and her son, Remington “Remy” Alexander, born in 2016. The siblings were bundled in cozy winter attire as they enjoyed the city’s seasonal charm.

Clarkson shares her children with her former husband, Brandon Blackstock, who died of cancer at age 48 in August 2025. The news of his passing deeply affected the family. A source close to the situation noted that Clarkson was “heartbroken” for their children, acknowledging the complicated but meaningful history she shared with Blackstock. 

The source explained, “Kelly and Brandon had their ups and downs, but at the end of the day, he was the father of her children and she is absolutely heartbroken for them.” Another insider shared that Blackstock had been privately battling cancer for three years, and Clarkson remained steadfast in protecting their kids emotionally throughout the ordeal. 

The source said: “When she found out that he was sick, she remained protective of him for their sake.”

Through grief and change, Clarkson has continued to prioritize River and Remy, drawing strength from her role as their mother.

The moment she shared from their chilly New York outing reflected the enduring bond between Clarkson and her children – one grounded in love, resilience, and the simple joy of making memories together. 

Clarkson’s Instagram post featured the cheerful caption:

“Ice skating at 30 Rock with the family ✅.”

The photo captured a candid moment at The Rink at Rockefeller Center, where the trio enjoyed a classic holiday experience. Standing behind her children, Clarkson posed with an unidentified friend or relative, while River and Remy stood at the center of the snapshot. Remy waved at the camera, adding a playful touch to the family moment. All four were dressed warmly in jackets and beanies, emphasizing the crisp winter atmosphere.

Beyond sharing family memories, Clarkson has also spoken publicly about parenting and the lessons she hopes to pass on to her children. During an episode of “The Kelly Clarkson Show” in October 2025, she sat down with actress Mariska Hargitay and opened up about a message she often gives to her daughter River, who had turned 11 that year. The singer revealed:

“I look at my daughter constantly and I’m just like, ‘Look, I’m trying my best.’” 

Clarkson followed the statement with candid humor, adding:

“I know you’re gonna end up in therapy one day. I don’t know what for, but I’m trying my best to limit it. Just like, help out.”

She added becoming a parent changed her own perspective on her parents:

“It is interesting, too – as we get older you understand even like if they might have been not great decisions for you,” Clarkson said, “you understand them in a different light, and you become a parent. You have a little but more empathy than you might have had in your 20s.”

Her honesty resonated with viewers, many of whom appreciate Clarkson’s blend of vulnerability and humor when discussing motherhood. Moreover, the ice-skating snapshot portrays Clarkson not only as a performer and host but as a devoted parent focused on creating meaningful experiences for her children.
