After seven seasons, NBC’s “The Kelly Clarkson Show” will go off the air, the show announced Monday, saying host Clarkson “made the personal decision to step away.”
“There have been so many amazing moments and shows over these seven seasons,” Clarkson said in a statement.
Production on the current season of the Daytime-Emmy winning talk show will continue as planned with Clarkson hosting, a press release said. There will also be “a few” guest hosts. The show will air through fall 2026.
The announcement was shared Monday with the show’s staff and crew, according to the release.
Clarkson said “this was not an easy decision,” but that stepping away from the daily schedule will allow her to “prioritize my kids, which feels necessary and right for this next chapter of our lives.”
“This isn’t goodbye. I’ll still be making music, playing shows here and there and you may catch me on ‘The Voice’ from time to time … you never know where I might show up next. But for now, I want to thank y’all so much for allowing our show to be a part of your lives, and for believing in us and hanging with us for seven incredible years,” the host said in her statement.
“The Kelly Clarkson Show” has won 24 Daytime Emmy Awards since its debut in 2019, including four straight wins in both the Outstanding Daytime Talk Series and Outstanding Talk Show Host categories.
The show was initially based in Los Angeles but relocated to 30 Rockefeller Center in New York ahead of its fifth season.
“The Kelly Clarkson Show” is produced and distributed by NBCUniversal, which also owns NBC News and this station.
