Singer and songwriter Kelly Clarkson has to pay almost $200,000 per month in spousal and child support to her ex-husband Brandon Blackstock. A report by People says that a Los Angeles County judge ordered Kelly Clarkson on July 27 to pay Brandon $150,000 per month in spousal support and $45,601 in child support.

This means Brandon Blackstock will get $195,601 from Kelly Clarkson every month and around $2.4 million in a year. The Voice judge also has to pay $1.25 million for her ex-husband’s attorney fees and costs for their ongoing divorce.

According to a source, Brandon aims to get more than double the amount that he has asked and requested that Clarkson pay him $436,000 per month. Kelly filed for divorce in June 2020 and appealed to a judge this month to officially sign off on the divorce.
