After a whirlwind romance, he got down on one knee 10 months later.
在經(jīng)歷了一段閃電式戀情后,布萊克斯托克在10個月后單膝跪地向克拉克森求婚。
Before him, Clarkson said after their engagement, she’d “never been loved properly by a man.”
他們訂婚后,克拉克森說,在他之前,“從來沒有一個男人好好愛過她。”
The couple exchanged vows in October 2013 with just his children Savannah, 18, and Seth, 13, as their wedding guests.
2013年10月,這對夫婦交換了誓言,婚禮上的嘉賓只有他18歲的孩子薩凡納和13歲的賽斯。
Quickly expanding their family over the next few years, the couple kept roots in Nashville even as work took them around the country.
在接下來的幾年里,他們的家庭迅速壯大,盡管為了工作會去到全國各地,但他們仍然選擇在納什維爾扎根。
“Being a wife and a mom isn’t something Kelly always thought was in the cards for her,” says the source.
知情人士說:“凱莉一直認為自己不可能成為妻子和母親。”
“But after meeting Brandon, it’s all she wanted.”
“但遇到布蘭登之后,這就是她想要的。”
After Clarkson landed her NBC daytime talk show last year, the family took a major leap, relocating to Los Angeles.
去年,克拉克森在NBC開始了她的日間脫口秀,這個家庭做出了一個重大轉變,搬到了洛杉磯。
“We ended up moving our whole family out here.
“最后我們全家都搬到了這里。
It was a big decision for us,” the entertainer, who was also filming The Voice in L.A., told People last August.
這對我們來說是一個重大決定。”這位藝人去年8月告訴《人物》雜志,當時她也在洛杉磯錄《美國之聲》。
While she was initially hesitant about having her own show, “my husband is a really good salesman on ideas,”
一開始她對創(chuàng)建自己的節(jié)目還很猶豫,“我丈夫在創(chuàng)意方面是個很好的銷售員,”
she said at the time about Blackstock, who began managing Clarkson’s career after they wed.
當時她談到布萊克斯托克時說,他在結婚后開始管理克拉克森的事業(yè)。
(Blackstock’s father, Narvel, who was married to Reba McEntire for 26 years, previously managed Clarkson.)
(布萊克斯托克的父親納維爾曾是克拉克森的經(jīng)紀人,他與瑞芭·麥肯泰爾結婚26年。)
“He’s just really good at pointing out things that will push me out of my comfort zone, which is why we’re really great partners in life as well.”
“他很擅長指出一些事情,把我推出自己的舒適區(qū),這就是為什么我們在生活中也是非常好的伴侶。”
But sources say Clarkson’s increasingly packed schedule was difficult to balance and put a strain on the marriage.
但有消息稱,克拉克森日益繁忙的日程難以平衡,給婚姻帶來了壓力。
When production for both The Voice and The Kelly Clarkson Show shut down in March amid the coronavirus pandemic, the family headed to Montana.
今年3月,《美國之聲》和《凱莉·克拉克森秀》的制作因冠狀病毒大流行而停播,一家人去了蒙大拿。
