Kelly Clarkson recently opened up about the challenges of balancing her demanding daytime talk show with her music career and responsibilities as a single mother. Speaking during a concert in Atlantic City, she revealed that her talk show schedule has made touring difficult, despite her love for live performances. Rumors have circulated that Clarkson is considering ending The Kelly Clarkson Show after her contract expires in 2026 to spend more time with her children and focus on her personal life. The show’s grueling workload and Clarkson’s desire for more family time have reportedly led NBC executives to begin searching for potential replacements, with Hoda Kotb among the names mentioned.

Additionally, ticket sales for her upcoming Las Vegas residency have reportedly been sluggish, adding to speculation about her future plans in the entertainment industry.
