Kelly Clarkson has been waiting for a moment like this.
The singer treated her children, 11-year-old River Rose and 9-year-old Remington, to a quintessential New York City experience: ice skating at Rockefeller Center, where she also tapes her show, The Kelly Clarkson Show.
Kelly shared a family photo on Instagram from a recent ice skating trip. She wore a white beanie and a black fur-lined coat. Her daughter, River, looked happy in a purple coat and bright pink beanie, while her brother, Remington, waved to the camera wearing a blue coat, yellow hat, and a lightning bolt shirt.
Kelly captioned the sweet photo, “Ice skating at 30 Rock with the family.”
Being a mom to her two children with her late ex-husband, Brandon Blackstock, can be challenging for the 43-year-old, and she sometimes feels overwhelmed.
Kelly Clarkson recently shared with Mariska Hargitay on her show that she often looks at her daughter and thinks to herself, ‘I’m doing the best I can.’
Honestly, she once told me she fully expects I’ll be in therapy someday. She couldn’t pinpoint why, but she said she’s doing everything she can to prevent it – which is… something, I guess. It’s a weird thing to say, but it stuck with me.
Despite everything, she’s getting stronger with each passing day. She even shared that becoming a mother herself has helped her understand her own parents better.
“It is interesting,” Kelly noted. “You understand them in a different light.”
She added, “You have a little but more empathy than you might have had in your 20s.”

And from her own experiences, she’s learned what she wants to prioritize when it comes to her kids.
Kelly says she makes a point of asking her children every night while they cuddle if they’re happy, and if not, what would improve their mood. She shared this on the Angie Martinez IRL Podcast in March 2024, explaining that her kids are very open with her, and she wants to encourage that honesty as she raises them.
For more Kelly’s family moments with her kids, read on…

Kelly Clarkson’s children, River and Remy (whose father is her former husband, Brandon Blackstock), were adorable and captured everyone’s attention during an appearance on her talk show in December 2024.

For the 2024 Grammys, the “Because Of You” brought her son Remy as her plus-one.

In August 2023, Kelly posted a photo of her children getting ready behind the scenes at her Las Vegas show. They were about to make surprise appearances on stage with their mom!

The “Since U Been Gone” singer was joined by her daughter Remy at the 2022 People’s Choice Awards.

In September 2022, River and Remy happily celebrated their mother earning a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

As a lifestyle observer, I remember Kelly and Brandon looking so happy at the UglyDolls premiere back in 2019! They brought along Kelly’s kids, Remy and River, and Brandon’s children, Seth and Savannah, from a previous relationship. Sadly, things changed, and Kelly filed for divorce from Brandon the following year. The divorce was finalized in 2022, and they both moved on with their lives.

River and Remy sat alongside celebrity guest Jason Momoa on their mom’s talk show in 2019.

Kelly enjoyed some fun in the sun with Remy and River Rose in 2018.

Kelly’s kids made the cutest cameo when they joined Hoda Kotb on a 2017 episode of Today.

Who doesn’t love a day at Disneyland with mom?

River and Remy were ready to help put out fires and solve crime in their costumes.

The kids buckled up for a family drive.

River showed she inherited her mother’s talent for performing, and Kelly was incredibly proud.

Kelly shared this cute photo of her son with the message: ‘New York City, you’re not prepared for Remy!’ She added that she’s incredibly excited!

Kelly was all smiles as she took this selfie with her daughter.

While filming her music video in 2017, the singer, who is from Texas, included her daughter so she could enjoy the experience behind the scenes.

In May 2017, the fam took in a Nashville Predators hockey game and even rocked matching jerseys.

Ugh, could this be any cuter of an Easter moment?

Remy’s first birthday in 2017 was a total blast and included a massive cake!

Kelly and River weren’t deterred by the cold Tennessee weather and happily participated in the 2016 Nashville Christmas Parade. They looked absolutely adorable!

While visiting Washington D.C., Kelly’s children were given a piggyback ride by their brother, Seth.

To announce the release of her new children’s book, a mother shared a sweet photo of herself with her daughter.

The singer wished her mom a happy Mother’s Day with a heartwarming post featuring a cute picture of her mom, herself, and her grandmother – three generations together.

Live from New York…it’s Kelly’s little one hanging out with SNL alum Jimmy Fallon.

In October 2014, the Grammy winner shared her first photo of daughter River Rose.
