When news broke in June 2020 that Kelly Clarkson was getting a divorce from her husband Brandon Blackstock after almost seven years of marriage, fans were likely shocked — and curious about what went wrong.

While the legal documents cite "irreconcilable differences," according to Us Weekly, and the singer hinted at the reason behind the split, she may never actually reveal the true cause out of concern for her two children that she shares with Blackstock, daughter River Rose and son Remington.

However, it now looks like Blackstock — who also has two older children, Samantha and Seth, from his first marriage — may have been up to some shady behavior before his marriage to Clarkson came to a less-than-amicable end.

While spouses need to trust each other in countless aspects, there also happens to be the fact that Blackstock has been accused of some pretty questionable behavior in the past — and it's exactly the kind of behavior that can end a marriage.

Before he tied the knot with the American Idol alum, Blackstock was married to Melissa Ashworth from 2001 until 2012. In 2013, a man named Jerry Reed, who was supposedly a friend of the family, claimed that Blackstock had been, quote, "running around on" Ashworth while they were together, according to The Daily Mail.

Still, rumors circulated that the talent manager was a 'chronic flirt' with women at his management company, according to OK! Magazine.

Unfortunately, the cheating rumors didn't stop after Blackstock got together with Clarkson. An eyebrow-raising story popped up in Celeb Dirty Laundry that included a confession from a woman who had supposedly "hooked up with Blackstock while he was engaged to Clarkson."

While adding that she was "ashamed" of what happened, the woman also claimed she was pregnant.

While it seems like she trusted Blackstock at the time, that might not have actually been the case.

Thankfully for Clarkson, she has her fans to help her put out the flames. When the star first addressed the rumors that Blackstock had been unfaithful back in 2013, her loyal admirers were quick to help her try to brush off the buzz.

However, when the divorce news broke and the rumors of cheating started to pop up again, fans were ready to back Clarkson up in a different way.

And that could turn out to be exactly what happens.
