Blackstock runs the management company that boasts McEntire and Clarkson, as well as fellow country star Blake Shelton, on its roster.

The couple have been living separately for several months but made the news official this week, TMZ reported.

The Grammy-winning multi-platinum artist is one of country music’s most popular artists, with No. 1 records in each of the last four decades. Gossip Cop will continue to have updates on McEntire and Blackstock’s breakup. Their only child together, son Shelby, is a successful Indy race auto driver. Narvel Blackstock also has three children from a previous marriage, including Clarkson’s husband, Brandon Blackstock.

Blackstock was a member of McEntire’s band in 1980 when her career was starting. Her latest album, “Love Somebody“, was released in April and debuted at No. 3 on the Billboard 200 chart.
