Kelly Clarkson and Reba McEntire may no longer be family, but it looks like their relationship is still good as gold.

While in New York City to promote her album Chemistry in June, the 41-year-old country singer stopped by Watch What Happens Live to discuss all things career and life.

“We were talking before she signed up to do The Voice, we were texting each other about that.” Kelly told Andy Cohen in Watch What Happens Live. “We text each other all the time.”

Kelly Clarkson and Reba McEntire may no longer be family, but it looks like their relationship is still good as gold.

While in New York City to promote her album Chemistry in June, the 41-year-old country star stopped by Watch What Happens Live to discuss all things career and life. As Kelly and host Andy Cohen chatted about her divorce from ex-husband Brandon Blackstock, he brought up how her former stepmother-in-law is incoming The Voice coach Reba McEntire (who was married to Brandon’s father Narvel Blackstock).

Given how Reba and Kelly had a long-standing friendship before they both got divorced, Andy asked whether they kept in touch after their respective breakups.”I mean we were friends before Brandon, we got together, so, yeah,” she said in the June 27 taping. “We were talking before she signed up to do The Voice, we were texting each other about that. We text each other all the time.”

But that wasn’t all The Kelly Clarkson Show personality had to say about Reba. When continuing to describe their years-long bond, Kelly reflected on how the two both went on similar life paths within a few years of one another.

“I think we’re both, you know, women of sound mind that know that life doesn’t work out sometimes,” she continued on the Bravo show. “I mean… well, she would know best! It’s like literally the same thing. So, no hard feelings there. Just feelings!”

As fans may know, both Kelly and Reba first met when they performed together on the season 1 finale of American Idol in 2002. At the time, Reba was married to Kelly’s ex-husband’s father Narvel, who she wed in 1989. A decade after their initial duet, Kelly would marry Brandon and have two children with him: River Rose and Remington Alexander.

In 2015, Reba announced her divorce from Narvel, with whom she had a son named Shelby. Kelly, on the other hand, would split from Brandon in June 2020. Since then, Reba has gone on to date actor Rex Linn, while Kelly hasn’t explicitly mentioned a significant other in her personal life.

As for how they truly feel about one another, Kelly honored Reba at the Kennedy Center Honors in 2018.

“Sometimes when we meet our heroes, it doesn’t always pan out how you hope,” she said at the event. “But meeting Reba, being friends with her and eventually becoming family has been one of the highlights of my life, truly.”
