Reba McEntire broke her silence over her former stepson Brandon Blackstock’s death.
On Monday, the renowned country artist left a touching comment below an Instagram tribute posted by her son, Shelby Blackstock, in honor of her late stepson.
‘Shelby’s words resonate deeply. We’ll surely feel his absence keenly,’ the singer, aged 73, posted along with numerous red and broken heart emojis.”
Or simply:
“Shelby’s thoughts are poignant. We’ll deeply miss him,” the singer, 73, wrote, accompanied by various heart emojis.
McEntire was previously married to Brandon’s father Narvel Blackstock from 1989 to 2015.
Following the shocking disclosure in Brandon’s obituary, it was unveiled that he was involved romantically with Clarkson’s assistant during his final days.
Shelby posted a tribute to his late brother the day after Brandon’s death.
The depth of our sorrow cannot be fully expressed. Yesterday, we tragically lost not just a sibling, but also a father, a grandfather, and a dear son. These sentiments are reflected in the old photos with my cherished half-brother that I shared.
As a devoted admirer, I can’t help but express my heartfelt sentiments. Brandon Blackstock was more than just an integral member of our household; he was the embodiment of humor, intelligence, and zest for living. His absence leaves an unfillable void that will be felt profoundly in our hearts.
In a sad turn of events, Kelly Clarkson’s former spouse, Brandon, who was a father to their two young children, passed away due to melanoma cancer at the age of 48 on August 7.
A day prior to the announcement of his demise, Clarkson ended her Las Vegas residency and disclosed that her former partner was unwell.
From 2013 until 2022, Brandon was wedded to a woman named Clarkson. During this marriage, they became parents to two children – a daughter named River Rose who is now 11 years old, and a son called Remy who is nine.
The recently deceased music manager had a family that included a 23-year-old daughter named Savannah and a 18-year-old son called Seth. These two children were born from his first marriage to Melissa Ashforth, with whom he shared parenthood.
In the heartwarming month of January 2022, I found myself embracing a new role – that of a proud grandfather. My beloved daughter, Savannah, brought a fresh ray of sunshine into our lives as she welcomed her firstborn, a handsome little boy named Lake Lee. Sharing this joyful milestone with her loving husband Quentin Lee made the experience even more special.
A little over a month before Brandon passed away, his daughter Savannah revealed they were anticipating the arrival of a second grandchild, a baby girl, from Savannah and her spouse.
