A Los Angeles county judge has ordered Kelly Clarkson to pay ex-husband, Brandon Blackstock nearly $200,000 a month in spousal and child support.
The order was handed down on Tuesday, July 27 with Clarkson expected to give Blackstock $150,000 per month in spousal support, as well as $45,601 per month in child support, PEOPLE reports.
This means that Brandon Blackstock, 43, will receive $195,601 in total from his singer ex each month, or roughly $2.4 million per year. The order also requires Kelly to pay $1.25 million towards his attorney fees and costs for their ongoing divorce.
A source previously stated that Brandon Blackstock had been aiming for more than double the amount in support, requesting that Clarkson pay him $436,000 per month ($301,000 in spousal support and $135,000 in child support).
Kelly Clarkson filed for divorce in June 2020 after seven years of marriage. Earlier this month, she appealed for a judge to officially sign off on her divorce, leaving other arrangements such as spousal and child support for a later date.
Clarkson was granted primary physical custody of their two children, River Rose, 6, and Remington Alexander, 4 in November 2020 by an L.A. County judge.
