Kelly Clarkson tried to save Reba’s marriage

And, in her first performance since announcing Monday that she was splitting from her husband of 26 years – Narvel Blackstock, who also is her manager – there was no mention of the news.

According to Us Weekly, Kelly Clarkson, who married Reba’s step-son Brandon Blackstock October 2013 and welcomed a daughter River Rose in June 2014, urged her in-laws to work it out and stay together.

Reba McEntire’s former Reba costar Melissa Peterman said her friend is “doing great” in the wake of her split from husband Narvel Blackstock.

“They’ve been living apart for two years”, a source tells Us.

The 60-year-old redhead stuffed about 25 songs into her 85-minute set, taking time to talk about more than three-fourths of them individually.

“Despite this being the end of their marriage, they continue to support each other”, the statement read. Blackstock joined McEntire’s band in 1980; he now runs a management company that represents McEntire, as well as their daughter-in-law Kelly Clarkson and Blake Shelton.

“She was really fighting for them to make it work and stay together”, the insider added.

Reba says of the track, “The energy and sass of “Until They Don’t Love You” mimics “Going Out Like That” but takes it up another notch. They have worked together for 35 years and will continue to do so”, the stars’ Big Machine Label Group statement said. “Reba and I are both competitive – she’ll tell you she’s not, but she’s a liar”.

“Our family gatherings are just a bunch of grandchildren and nieces and nephews”.
