First lady Jill Biden and three-time Grammy-winning singer Kelly Clarkson have more in common than one might think — both know what it's like to go through divorce.
In a new interview on "The Kelly Clarkson Show," the first lady shared some advice with Clarkson about healing from the experience and finding love again.
"This is what I would say to you if I were your mother. My mother always said to me, 'Things are going to look better tomorrow,' and if you can take one day at a time, and things will get better," Biden told Clarkson. "You know, I look back on it now and I think, you know if I hadn't gotten divorced, I never would've met Joe. I wouldn't have the beautiful family I have now."
Biden married her first husband, Bill Stevenson, in 1970, and the couple divorced in 1975. That same year, Joe Biden's brother set them up on a blind date, and they've now been married for 43 years. Clarkson filed for divorce from her husband of almost seven years, Brandon Blackstock, in June 2020, citing irreconcilable differences.
Even after falling in love with Joe, Jill was reluctant to marry again — he had to propose five times before she finally agreed. But she assured Clarkson that it is possible to heal after heartbreak.
"So I really think things happen for the best, and I don't know how long it's been for you, but I think over time you heal," she said. "You're gonna be surprised, and I can't wait until that day comes for you, and you're gonna call me up and you're gonna say, 'Hey, Jill, you were right!'"
Clarkson's full interview with the first lady airs Thursday, February 25 on NBC. Watch "The Kelly Clarkson Show" clip here:
