Kelly Clarkson's Ex Assistant Accused of Cheating on Husband with Singer's Ex Before His Death

New Details Emerge About the Complex Relationships Involving Kelly Clarkson, Brandon Blackstock, and Brittney Marie Jones

Recent revelations have added a new layer of complexity to the already dramatic story involving Kelly Clarkson, her ex-husband Brandon Blackstock, and his former partner Brittney Marie Jones. While much has been discussed about Blackstock’s relationship with Jones, new information suggests that this situation is far more intricate than previously understood.

Brittney Marie Jones and Her Previous Marriage

According to insiders, Brittney Marie Jones was married to Greg LaPoint, a drummer for the band Gypsey Nights. The couple tied the knot on August 13, 2021, and LaPoint publicly celebrated their anniversary on Instagram in 2022, expressing deep affection for his wife. However, it was later revealed that Jones had an affair with Blackstock while still married to LaPoint. Sources indicate that LaPoint only discovered the truth in the summer of 2023, which led him to request an immediate divorce. Jones complied, filing for divorce on July 13, 2023, citing "irreconcilable differences."

Despite this, there are questions about the actual date of separation. LaPoint shared a photo of the couple hiking together in January 2023, suggesting that the split may not have occurred as early as claimed. Their divorce was finalized in February 2024.

Did Brandon Blackstock Cheat on Kelly Clarkson?

Contrary to some rumors, multiple sources confirm that Blackstock did not cheat on Clarkson with Jones. Instead, it is alleged that their marriage had already ended long before Blackstock began dating Jones. One insider mentioned that Blackstock “slipped away to Montana” during the final stages of his divorce from Clarkson, keeping many details of his relationship with Jones private.

Fans only learned of Blackstock’s relationship with Jones through his obituary, which described her as a “beautiful and loving partner in life and business.” The obituary also highlighted their collaborative efforts in building companies like Headwaters Livestock Auction.

Blackstock passed away on August 7 after a three-year battle with cancer. He was 48 years old.

Blackstock’s History With Clarkson and Jones

Clarkson and Blackstock were married from 2013 until she filed for divorce in June 2020. Their divorce wasn’t finalized until 2022 due to ongoing legal battles over finances, property, and child custody. During this time, Jones worked as Clarkson’s assistant from 2018 to 2022, managing her daily schedule. She also served as Blackstock’s assistant and later continued working for him in Montana at his Valley View Rodeo.

Clarkson has never publicly addressed rumors about Blackstock cheating, but she did mention in court documents that the level of conflict between them increased, particularly due to issues of trust in co-parenting their two children.

Kelly Clarkson’s Feelings About Blackstock Dating Jones

An insider told the Daily Mail that Blackstock dating Jones was “just the icing on the cake of the disappointment [Clarkson] felt over the delusion of their marriage.” The source noted that Blackstock chose to move on with someone Clarkson knew and trusted, which added to the emotional toll for the singer. However, the insider emphasized that Clarkson does not blame Jones for the situation.

Clarkson is reportedly focused on protecting her children, River Rose and Remington, from any drama related to the situation. After learning of Blackstock’s illness, she prioritized ensuring her children’s well-being while allowing him to live his personal life freely.

Current Status and Emotional Impact

Clarkson remains deeply affected by the loss of her ex-husband and the father of her children. An insider told People Magazine that she has been devastated for the kids, emphasizing her commitment to keeping things classy during this difficult time.

The situation involving Clarkson, Blackstock, and Jones highlights the complexities of personal relationships, especially when they intersect with public figures and family dynamics. As the story continues to unfold, it serves as a reminder of the emotional challenges faced by those involved in high-profile situations.
