Speaking to Khloé Kardashian on her daytime talk show, Clarkson, 38, talked about the difficulties of being co-parenting with distant husband Brandon Blackstock, 44.
“You talk about being a parent, and I’m doing it now, too,” Clarkson told Kardashian – who fathered daughter True, 2, with basketball star Tristan Thompson. “It’s difficult … I know with Brandon and me, it’s just a difficult thing because we’re in different places, and it’s like, we both agree on the main things, but it’s a difficult thing when we’re not all together the time, for me personally. “
“As long as you are sure it is about children and their best interests, we will both be involved,” added Clarkson.
