Kelly Clarkson Is Expanding Her Empire
There are ongoing rumors about the future of The Kelly Clarkson Show as speculation arises that the talk show host might be departing.
Earlier this year, concerns emerged regarding Clarkson’s unexplained absences, which led to other actors occasionally stepping in on short notice. This situation left fans apprehensive about the singer’s well-being and uncertain about her future with NBC.
Recently, several “insiders” have suggested that Clarkson is contemplating leaving her show. The New York Post reported that one such insider stated, “Kelly’s No. 1 priority is her children, and they always will be. The show is grueling. It’s a whole lot of work, and I hear that Kelly would like to spend more time down South.”
Even though these rumors are circulating online, they have not been confirmed. It even seems that Clarkson is doing the opposite.
