凯莉·克拉克森宣布离婚(4)

Now back in L. A. , Clarkson plans to stay in California for the foreseeable future, sources say. "She seems to be doing okay," an insider says of the star, who's been living in a home she first listed for sale late last year but took off the market two days before she filed for divorce.

"She's spending time in L. A. with her kids." As she faces her own heartbreak, sources say, Clarkson wants to shield her children, including her step kids.

"She's always thought of Seth and Savannah as her own too, and she has a special relationship with both of them," says the source. "Kelly wants to remain close with her step kids."

"Her priority is making sure her children grow up in a stable, loving environment." Leaning on loved ones, Clarkson is staying busy with work commitments as her talk show continues to film new episodes over the summer before returning for its second season in the fall.
