The recently divorced mother of two went on to thank those special few “for their arms that have held [her] when [she] needed it and their hearts that listened to [her] when [she] felt lost.”
“Without them I would not be where I am. I would probably not be here at all,” Clarkson noted.
The three-time Grammy winner said she’s “most proud” of the friends who “have become family.”
“Thank you!” she gushed. “I hope all of you have people in your lives that fill you with laughter, and hope, and happiness, and if you don’t feel like you have that, then keep searching because I promise you they’re looking for you too.”
The talk show host made sure to thank “every single person that voted 20 years ago!”
Clarkson filed for divorce from Brandon Blackstock, 45, in June 2020 after nearly seven years of marriage.
The two settled their particularly bitter divorce earlier this year. Clarkson was granted primary custody of their two children: daughter River, 8, and son Remington, 6.
Upon winning the reality TV singing competition, 20 years ago , she has gone ahead to earning three Grammy Awards
