Kelly Clarkson ‘Done’ With Daytime, Focused On Family After Tragedy
2025 was a difficult year for Kelly Clarkson. She faced multiple personal losses. Now, multiple outlets report that she’s “done” with daytime to focus on her family. Keep reading to find out what sources say about the future of The Kelly Clarkson Show.
Kelly Clarkson Returns To The Voice
Kelly Clarkson was a coach on The Voice for nine seasons. She left after Season 23. But the NBC show made a huge announcement a while ago that the popular coach was returning for a special Season 29.
She joins returning coaches Adam Levine and John Legend for The Voice: Battle of Champions. She was reportedly about to film the reality competition when her ex-husband, Brandon Blackstock, passed away in the summer of 2025. Kelly Clarkson missed several days of filming to attend the funeral with their two children, River Rose, 11, and Remington “Remy” Alexander, 9.
Season 29 of The Voice premieres on Monday, February 23, 2026.
She’s ‘Done’ With Daytime, Focused On Family After Tragedy
In addition to her singing career and primetime TV obligations, Kelly Clarkson has hosted a daytime talk show since 2019. The show includes the beloved Kellyoke segment, where the American Idol performs a cover song from all types of genres. Sadly, Kellyoke may be coming to an end.
Page Six reported earlier this week that The Kelly Clarkson Show is ending after the current season. “[Her show] is a lot to put on, and looking at the landscape across daytime television, it’s not sustainable anymore,” an insider spilled.
The talk show moved from California to New York City for Season 5 to accommodate Kelly Clarkson’s life post-divorce. But she reportedly wants out of daytime after her current contract expires.
Previous rumors suggested that former Today host Hoda Kotb could replace Kelly Clarkson.

However, The Kelly Clarkson Show staffers are reportedly in limbo amid speculation about the future of the daytime talk show. “It very well could be ending after this season, because her contract ends, but the staff doesn’t know for sure yet,” an insider said.
