Kelly Clarkson's Mother Wasn't Invited To Her Wedding

Kelly Clarkson got married with her fiancé Brandon Blackstock over the weekend in a private ceremony so intimate that the only guests were his two kids and even her own mom was not there to watch her walk down the aisle.


The "American Idol" star and Reba McEntire's stepson had a small ceremony at the Walland, Tenn. resort Blackberry Farm, over the weekend and while his two children from a previous marriage were present, her mother Jeanne Taylor explained her absence claiming that Kelly and Brandon basically eloped.

"She said they were just so overwhelmed with the tour and they just decided to elope," she revealed to Celebuzz.

"But she didn't want to hurt our feelings. She has had a lot on her plate and I've seen her schedule for the next month and Christmas. But we're happy for her and she's so happy. She was so afraid we might be upset. But we were fine with it…I had known that she was under a lot of stress. And we just wanted her to be happy and not stressed out…I think the biggest thing for us to do was to allow her to do what she wanted to do," she noted.

Despite not attending her daughter's ceremony, where she wore a white Alice Temperely wedding gown and a gorgeous Maria Elena hairpiece, Jeanne stated that Kelly has ensured she will still be able to enjoy the ceremony.

"She made a (wedding) video and we'll get to see all of it. She said she cried through the whole thing anyway. She's really emotional like that. She's now glad she didn't do it in front of a lot of people because then she'd be embarrassed," Jeanne was quoted as saying.

Taylor claimed that she expects Kelly to make her a grandmother very soon.

"I think she'll make a great mom. I know she's been trying really hard with Brandon's kids and they all really get along. I've watched them interact and she'll help them with their homework and listen to them read. They'll make a good expanded family…That is the next thing on the list," Taylor added.
