American singer and Kelly Clarkson have won primary physical custody of her children with her ex-husband, Brandon Blackstock.
According to court documents obtained by USA TODAY, Clarkson and Blackstock will share joint physical and legal custody of their children daughter River, 6, and son Remington, 4 with Clarkson having primary physical custody of them in Los Angeles.
“The Court finds that under the circumstances present in this case, the interest in providing stability and continuity for the minor children weighs in favour of Petitioner having primary custody,” reads the ruling, in reference to Clarkson.
Additionally, the document states that “the level of conflict between the parents has increased”. This is because “the parties have a difficult time co-parenting due to issues of trust between them.”
Though Clarkson will have physical custody, Blackstock will FaceTime with the children every day. The document also lays out details about weekends, holidays and school breaks.

The document states that neither parent is allowed to “speak in a derogatory manner” about the other parent to the children. Both of them will also be listed as emergency contacts for the children on all school forms.
Clarkson filed for divorce from Blackstock in June after seven years of marriage. The “Breakaway” singer revealed her two children entered therapy following the split.
“We have a lot of help as far as therapists or child psychologists because we want to do it right. I definitely want to do it right. Everyone’s sad and it’s okay to be sad.” the show host explained to “Extra.”
