Kelly Clarkson was spotted out wearing an outfit featuring a hidden detail with a symbolic meaning after her ex-husband Brandon Blackstock’s death.
The singer-songwriter, 43, was spotted sporting a large pendant necklace worth over $22K and featuring a tarot card charm symbolizing ‘healing and hope.’
It was the first time she stepped out in public since the father of her two children, her former talent manager, died at the age of 48 on August 7 after battling cancer.
She was wearing Sorellina Jewelry’s Le Stelle (The Star) Tarot Card pendant, which costs $22,500.
Per the item description, the star card pendant signifies hope, inspiration, positivity, renewal, healing and rejuvenation.
The specific tarot card depicts a female kneeling amongst land, sea and stars — ‘showing us that even in the darkest of times, there will always come light.’

According to the jewelry brand’s website, the product description read: ‘It serves as a reminder to keep a renewed sense of hope during difficult periods and your courage will be rewarded.’
Her ex-husband passed away earlier this month from melanoma, a form of skin cancer, after a secret three-year battle with the illness.
Right before his tragic death, Clarkson announced that she was postponing her Vegas shows to be ‘present’ for her kids while her ex was ‘ill.’
In recent months, she made a number of unexplained absences from her television show but remained vague about the personal reason she was taking time off work.
Clarkson and Blackstock were married for nearly seven years before she filed for divorce in 2020 and it was finalized in 2022.
The pair were involved in a contentious legal battle over money but remained amicable to co-parent their two kids: River, 11, and Remington, nine.
This weekend, the musician was spotted in her first public sighting since her ex’s passing.
In photos exclusively obtained by the Daily Mail, the singer wore funereal black and guarded her eyes with sunglasses as she arrived at LAX.

Although she shaded her face with a wide-brimmed hat, her doleful expression was in sharp evidence as she crossed the sidewalk and headed into the airport.
Their split had been marked by rancorous squabbles over money, with Clarkson even suing Blackstock for allegedly making unauthorized business deals on her behalf, and his romance with her former assistant has also raised eyebrows.
Her latest sighting comes after the Daily Mail revealed Clarkson cannot shake a sense of guilt over his death, with insiders saying she has questioned if the stress of their divorce was detrimental to his health.
Just days earlier, sources exclusively revealed the emotions that Clarkson has been grappling with since the father of her children died.
‘Kelly is aware of talk that stress can impact the body and make someone more susceptible to cancer,’ an insider told the Daily Mail. ‘Although the timing could be purely coincidental, she knows how much tension the divorce and lawsuits put on them.
‘She doesn’t blame herself but she’s conscious that the double whammy of the divorce and the fact that he had to repay her millions of dollars was very tough on him.’
