KELLY Clarkson’s Los Angeles mansion is truly made for luxury living for her and her two kids, exclusive pics from The U.S. Sun have revealed.The $5.5million residence is filled with plenty of amenities that will keep the American Idol alum very entertained.For starters, the 41-year-old’s home comes with five bedrooms and seven bathrooms – enough for the TV personality and her two children: daughter River Rose, nine, and son Remington Alexander, seven.
Kelly shares both children with her ex-husband Brandon Blackstock.The property is also equipped with a pool and a tennis court, as exclusive photos show Kelly has plenty of inflatables for her little ones.
The pics also show that the singer’s children have decided to set-up teepees on the tennis court for their own entertainment; they even have their own huge playground nearby as well.
Kelly – who has a net worth nearing $45million, took out a mortgage of $2,500,000 with Wells Fargo Bank for the home.
The famous hitmaker purchased the mansion following her split from ex Brandon.
Kelly filed for divorce in June 2020, citing irreconcilable differences; however, what followed was chaos and a court battle over their martial assets.
Two years later, the former couple settled their divorce, and the Grammy Award-winner was ordered to pay her ex over $1.3million, along with $45,601 per month in child support.
SPILLING IT ALL OUT
Earlier this week, Kelly appeared on an episode of the Conan O’Brien Needs a Friend podcast to promote the release of her upcoming album, Chemistry, as well as to touch on her nasty split.
“Divorce, in general, is hard. Separation, grief, loss, all of that is hard. I think the worst part is when you feel alone,” Kelly told host Conan, 60, in front of a live audience.
The mom of two then explained that she struggled to confide in those close to her as they didn’t share the same experiences.
“When you’re going through something so horrendous and so publicly, there’s no way to describe that… I think when you’re that isolated… that’s the worst to not feel like you can connect to another being and not heal in that sense,” the performer shared.
Kelly also admitted that her mental health took a big hit while balancing her personal troubles and work responsibilities during the Covid-19 pandemic.
“I would be like truth, completely balling right before we would be shooting and be like, ‘how do I fix this?’… It’s hard to keep smiling,” she confessed, noting that she even canceled a work obligation while battling a low-point.
“There was one time- I never cancel, I’m not that person- and I was like, ‘I can’t actually fix this. I looked like, oh God, put her in a jacket.’ It was real bad. I was really sad, so we had to cancel one day,” Kelly revealed.
‘I HATE YOU’
Days earlier, Kelly also appeared on an episode of the podcast We Can Do Hard Things with Glennon Doyle.
Kelly confessed that she and Brandon’s relationship has been rocky while navigating co-parenting their two children.
“If there’s always this tug-of-war happening, like, ‘Oh my god, I love you, but god, I hate you, you are just horrible.’ That’s not healthy,” the talk show host shared at the time.
She continued: “That’s just emotionally going 9-0… but you finally get away from that, and you realize how ‘OK, this actually feels better.'”
Kelly furthered on the podcast: “Any kind of dependency [in a relationship], I feel like takes away from what the core loving relationship should be. No, I don’t need you for any of that. I’m choosing you.”I could freely be giving it to anyone, and I’m freely giving it to you and only you. I think that’s so beautiful…[and some] people don’t agree.”
Kelly’s new album, Chemistry, is out on June 23, and features 14 songs inspired by her divorce.
