AceShowbiz - Kelly Clarkson, the charismatic host of "The Kelly Clarkson Show," has taken an unexpected hiatus without initial explanation, causing a wave of concern among her fans.
Speculations were rife, but reports assure that there is no need to worry. According to sources who spoke to TMZ, Clarkson is "completely fine" and has been "dealing with a personal matter that does not directly involve her."
This absence dates back to February 28, with celebrity guest hosts such as Simu Liu, Roy Wood Jr., and Brooke Shields stepping in to fill the void.
Liu, who hosted the March 3 episode, confessed, "I did not know I was doing this until about five minutes ago when I arrived here to promote my new movie, 'Last Breath.' "
Despite returning briefly to host the March 4 and 5 episodes, Clarkson has been off the screen since. She is scheduled to return to the studio and be on air on Thursday, March 13. However, whether she will actually appear in Thursday's episode, which has already been filmed by guest host Molly Sims, or if she will be pre-taping future episodes, remains unclear.
Amid her absence, "The Kelly Clarkson Show" announced through its Instagram that rotating guests would continue to host, sparking fans to flood the comments section with their concerns.
While some fans demanded to know Clarkson's whereabouts to assure her well-being, others defended her privacy. One fan summed it up perfectly, noting, "Kelly does not owe anyone an explanation for her absence."
This isn't the first time Clarkson has taken a break from her show. In 2022, she stepped away for the summer to spend quality time with her children in Montana. Now, her return is eagerly awaited as her show approaches a significant milestone - the 1,000th episode set to air on March 20.
Meanwhile, Clarkson is also gearing up for her much-anticipated Las Vegas residency at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace, which will run from July 4 through November 15.
As Kelly Clarkson prepares to make her return next week, her fans hope for her well-being and continue to support her privacy. One thing is for sure: the resilient singer and TV host will be back stronger, holding onto that trademark humor and warmth that makes her a beloved figure in daytime television.
