Brandon Blackstock, the longtime talent manager and former husband of Kelly Clarkson, died on August 7, 2025, at his home in Butte, Montana.

His death was attributed to melanoma, a form of skin cancer, with the manner listed as natural causes. According to officials, he was under hospice care.

Meet the beautiful family the 48-year-old left behind, including his daughters and sons from two marriages, as well as a young grandson.

Savannah Lee

Brandon welcomed his firstborn, Savannah, with his first wife, Melissa Ashworth, during their marriage from 2001 to 2012. Over the years, the father-daughter duo's bond appeared strong.

The two were regularly seen side by side at public events, with Brandon often looking every bit the proud father. Savannah's connection with Kelly also seemed strong.

In 2017, the famous singer shared a red carpet photo that captured Savannah standing beside her, with Kelly's biological daughter beaming in front of them. Kelly didn't hesitate to call Savannah her daughter in the caption, a public nod to the blended family's closeness.

According to reports, Savannah lives in Florida, where she has built a career as a realtor. She and her husband, Quentin Lee, are already parents to a three-year-old son named Lake Lee.

Heartbreakingly, just a month before Brandon's sudden passing, Savannah announced she was expecting another child, due in 2026.

The post, made from her now-private account, spoke of her excitement over the growing family — a moment of joy that would soon be shadowed by heartbreaking loss.

Seth Blackstock

Seth, Brandon's second child with Melissa, bears a handsome resemblance to his father While he has largely stayed out of the public eye, one particularly heartwarming moment came in 2020.

That year, Seth joined Brandon and his younger half-siblings to film a sweet birthday video for Kelly. With a shy smile, he told his famous stepmother that he loved her — a simple gesture that reflected the warmth within the blended family.

River Rose Blackstock

River, Brandon's third child and his first with Kelly, was born in June 2014. The singer shared the news on social media at the time, telling fans their baby girl had arrived on June 12 and expressing how overjoyed she and Brandon were to welcome her.

Now a young performer in her own right, River has occasionally joined her mother on stage, singing alongside her in front of live audiences. Those moments have hinted that Kelly's musical talent may very well be something River has inherited.

Remington 'Remy' Alexander Blackstock

Brandon's youngest child, Remy, was born in April 2016, his second with Kelly. The singer announced the news on social media as well, happily sharing that their baby boy had arrived healthy and that the family was overjoyed.

Soon after, she posted a sweet black-and-white snapshot of the newborn, his tiny frame cradled in protective arms.

As he's grown, Remy has also shown signs that he may share his mother's musical streak. In November 2024, he took to the stage on "The Kelly Clarkson Show" to perform Frank Sinatra's timeless hit, "My Way."

The crowd responded with warm applause, and the clip quickly went viral — a moment that hinted at a bright future for the youngest Blackstock.

Lake Lee

Before his untimely passing, Brandon reached a new milestone in life — becoming a grandfather. In January 2022, Savannah and her husband welcomed Lake.

The couple had shared their excitement about expecting him, later announcing his birth on Instagram. Though still just a toddler, Lake brought another layer of joy to the Blackstock family, marking a new generation that Brandon was able to meet and cherish.

Brandon Blackstock's life was deeply intertwined with his children and grandchild, each of whom carried a piece of his legacy.

From Savannah's growing family and Seth's quiet warmth to River and Remy's budding musical talents and Lake's bright beginnings, they remain living reminders of the love and joy he brought to those closest to him.
