Following the death of music manager Brandon Blackstock last month at age 48, his former stepmother Reba McEntire offered a family update on Sunday’s Emmys red carpet.

McEntire was married to Brandon’s dad, Starstruck co-founder Narvel Blackstock, for 26 years and is the mother of Brandon’s half-brother Shelby. When Brandon married Kelly Clarkson in 2013, McEntire all of a sudden became family with Clarkson, a singer she had performed with before the marital connection. (Reba and Narvel divorced in 2015, while Kelly and Brandon ended their marriage in 2022.) Before his death, Brandon Blackstock had four children: Savannah and Seth from a previous marriage and River Rose and Remy with Clarkson.
