Kelly posted a short snippet of the track to her social media accounts.
The song, titled mine, appears to be the first single from her upcoming Chemistry album.
The 40-year-old shared a black and white clip from her recording session for the song.
Kelly was standing in front of a microphone in a studio, as she sang a capella.
“Someone’s gonna show you how a heart can be used like you did mine,” she crooned.
In the caption, Kelly revealed mine will be released on April 14, and shared a link for fans to “pre-save now.”
Online, fans remarked they are ready for her to spill the tea.
“Divorce album incoming,” one person cried on Instagram
Another exclaimed: “Yes!!!! The divorce record all of us have been waiting for!”
While a third predicted: “This is gonna hurt, I can already tell.”
CHEMISTRY
Last month, Kelly promised to expose the “ugly” and “sad” details about her marriage with ex-husband Brandon on her upcoming album
The talk show host opened up about what’s to be expected from her new music during an album announcement video posted to her Instagram.
In the announcement video, the Breakaway artist stated: “It is officially time to tell you that I’ve been working on this project for, well, close to three years now.”
She continued: “I wasn’t sure I was going to release it but I am and the album is called Chemistry.”
Kelly explained: “It’s called Chemistry because I was trying to find a word, it also might be one of the songs on the alum, but I was trying to find a word that really described the whole thing.”
The singer admitted that she didn’t want her fans to think that she was coming out with an alum that was based on being “angry” and “sad.”
Or as she puts it, “just two emotions.”
STRONGER
The TV personality revealed: “This alum is definitely the arc of an entire relationship.
“And a whole relationship shouldn’t be just brought down to one thing.”
Kelly confessed: “There’s you know, the good, the bad, and the ugly kind of thing going on in it.”
“Chemistry can be a really amazing, sexy, cool, [and] fun thing but it can also be very bad for you,” she later admitted before adding, That’s why I named it chemistry.
“I thought it was kind of the perfect title to describe the entire album.”
Near the video’s conclusion, the Since U Been Gone singer teased that the album is “coming out soon” while also confessing that she’s
“nervous” but “excited about putting it out.”
BREAKAWAY
Kelly left her husband Brandon in 2020 after seven years of marriage.
She first met her music manager and ex-husband backstage at a rehearsal for the Academy of Country Music Awards in 2006.
After several years of dating, the pair got engaged in December 2012 and married a year later at a luxury estate in Tennessee.
While the pair seemed inseparable, The Kelly Clarkson Show host shocked fans when she filed for divorce on June 4, 2020.
At the time, she cited “irreconcilable differences” and later admitted on her show that she “didn’t see” it coming.
During her show’s season premiere, Kelly revealed: “2020 has been a dumpster fire. 2020 has brought a lot of change also to my personal life. Definitely didn’t see anything coming that came.
“But what I’m dealing with is hard because it involves more than just my heart. It involves a lot of little hearts.”
“You know, we have four kids and divorce is never easy, and we’re both from divorced families, so we know the best thing here is to protect our children and their little hearts,” Kelly added.
After tying the knot in 2013, Kelly and Brandon welcomed two kids, daughter River Rose and son Remington Alexander.
Their divorce was later settled in March 2022, and the Grammy Award-winning singer was ordered to pay Blackstock just over $1.3million along with $45,601 per month in child support.
As part of their divorce agreement, the former couple will have joint custody. However, the children are expected to reside with Kelly in Los Angeles.
