Kelly Clarkson & Brandon Blackstock

The singer became stepmom to Savannah and Seth when she got married to music manager Blackstock in October 2013. After the couple tied the knot at Blackberry Farms in Tennessee, Clarkson was ready to grow their family right away.

“When you get married, it’s like official,” she told PEOPLE. “You’re starting a family and we want to have more children, so we’re just excited.”

In addition to Blackstock’s children he shares with ex-wife Melissa Ashworth, the pair have added daughter River and son Remington to their beautiful family.

Then in June 2020, Clarkson suddenly filed for divorce in Los Angeles, ending their seven-year marriage, according to documents obtained by The Blast.

Reps for Clarkson did not immediately respond to PEOPLE's request for comment.

The sad news came as Clarkson had been social distancing at the couple's Montana ranch with Blackstock and their children amid the coronavirus pandemic, even filming remote episodes of her talk show The Kelly Clarkson Show from their home.

"You are my best friends for life. You make me a better version of myself everyday and I am so excited to embark on another year with you," Rumer captioned this sweet sister photo.

Mohamed & Yolanda Hadid

In addition to strong family genes, the Hadids have strong family values that keep them close as a blended family. Real estate developer Mohamed's first marriage to ex-wife Mary Butler ended in 1992 and the former couple share Marielle and Alana together. Then, when Mohamed married ex-wife and former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Yolanda in 1994, the couple welcomed Gigi, Bella and Anwar before they split in 2000. Despite what went on with their parents, the Hadid kids remain super close.
