The source added that this is \u201cwhile giving them the space to grieve in their own way.\u201d<\/p>\n
Loss is difficult at any age, but children usually have fewer coping mechanisms than adults when it comes to accepting the change.<\/p>\n
Losing a parent like this can alter a child\u2019s trajectory in life, changing how they view relationships and more.<\/p>\n
There is no one-size-fits-all approach to healthy grieving. But, in most cases, giving someone space to process is a good idea.<\/p>\n
\nThey were married for nearly 7 years before the split<\/h2>\n
Clarkson and Blackstock\u2019s marriage did not end on a high note. Nor did it end quickly.<\/p>\n
In June of 2020, Clarkson filed to divorce her husband after just shy of seven years of marriage.<\/p>\n
Some declared that their marriage was a pandemic casualty. Some bonds grew closer during lockdowns and social distancing, while others found that without work and hobbies, they did not really like their partners.<\/p>\n
In Clarkson and Blackstock\u2019s case, they locked into a lengthy legal battle that lasted for years.<\/p>\n
It was not until March 2022 that they settled disputes on spousal support, custody of their kids, and of course the contentious Montana ranch. Only then did they finalize their divorce.<\/p>\n\n
