Kelly Clarkson<\/strong><\/a> has been opening up about her desire to find love again, but a source exclusively tells Life & Style<\/em> that she\u2019s refusing to put pressure on herself and is happy to wait as long as it takes for Mr. Right to eventually come along.<\/p>\n \u201cKelly is not obsessing about finding a boyfriend, she has an extremely full plate so it\u2019s not as though she\u2019s sitting around by herself moping about being single,\u201d an insider exclusively tells Life & Style<\/em>. \u201cThat being said, she does admit that she\u2019d love to meet someone special, it\u2019s just a question of how to make it happen.\u201d<\/p>\n The source adds that Kelly, 43, \u201cdoesn\u2019t want to go on dating sites and she doesn\u2019t want to hire a matchmaker, or slide into other celebrities\u2019 DM\u2019s\u201d because \u201cshe\u2019s far too shy to pull something like that off.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cShe is quietly hoping that someone famous might try that with her, she\u2019d love to be pursued,\u201d the insider continues. \u201cShe\u2019s joked that she should do her own version of the Bachelorette as a segment on her show to try and find love, but of course she\u2019d never do that.\u201d<\/p>\n The source says, \u201cAt this point, all she can really do is try and put the word out that she\u2019s dating and hope someone she knows sets her up with a decent guy. She does meet a lot of people herself, so it could also happen organically, she\u2019s certainly hoping it will.\u201d<\/p>\n Kelly hasn\u2019t been in a public relationship since she finalized her divorced ex-husband Brandon Blackstock<\/strong><\/a> in March 2022. The former couple share daughter River Rose, 10, and son Remington \u201cRemy\u201d Alexander, 9.<\/p>\n The \u201cSince U Been Gone\u201d singer previously shared a rare insight into her love life during the May 6 episode of Today<\/span><\/i>, where she said <\/span>she was hoping for her \u201cunicorn moment.\u201d<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n \u201cYeah, I mean, I hope it does!\u201d she told Jenna Bush Hager<\/strong> and guest cohost Matt Rogers<\/strong> about meeting a potential partner. \u201cI will say, I\u2019m not not looking and I\u2019m not looking.
