Kelly Clarkson’s big move is working out well for her. The singer and talk show host, who is mom to daughter River Rose, 9, and son Remington Alexander, 7, recently relocated with her family from California to New York after her marriage to ex-husband Brandon Blackstock came to an end. “I was very unhappy in LA and had been for several years. I needed a fresh start,” she told People. Clarkson said she asked NBC to move “The Kelly Clarkson Show” across the country with her to help facilitate that change. “We told NBC, ‘I’m not trying to sound ungrateful, I just can’t stay here anymore for my mental health; for me and my kids.’ They weren’t doing well either,” Clarkson said of her children. “For the past few years, I’d just been showing up and smiling and doing what I’m supposed to do, but you can only compartmentalize so long until you break.” Clarkson said the energy of New York has revived her, and that she is in a much better place now.
Justin Baldoni’s legal team on Tuesday released footage from the set of “It Ends With Us,” the film at the center of his ongoing legal battle with co-star Blake Lively, that they say supports his claim that he acted with “respect and professionalism” toward the former “Gossip Girl” star, who has accused him of sexual harassment.
