Kelly Clarkson still missing from show as fans ‘concerned’ by mystery absence

The Kelly Clarkson show saw model Molly Sims step in to cover for the host, and fans begged to know if something was wrong as Kelly’s absence was extended without warning

Fans have become even more concerned for Kelly Clarkson after her leave of absence from her own talk show was suddenly extended.

The Kelly Clarkson Show host has taken days off over February and into early March, and has now been absent this entire week without explanation. TMZ reported that she was due to be back for her March 13 show, but instead was again replaced by another star

In place of Kelly, 42, actress and model Molly Sims took over the morning broadcast today. On the show’s Instagram account, it was confirmed that Molly, 51, would also be stepping in to cover March 14.

The comment section of the announcement of Kelly’s replacements was full of messages from concerned fans, many of whom begged to know that the American Idol star was okay.

“We love Kelly and respect her privacy but y’all definitely need to put out some sort of statement because this is worrisome,” said one, with another adding: “I respect Kelly Clarkson’s privacy, but I am very concerned about her.”

“We don’t need to know her business but we need to know she is ok please,” a third wrote along with a crying emoji, while a fourth fan echoed: “I’m not going to watch until Kelly comes back. I’m concerned, where is she?”

Prior to Molly filling in, previous episodes over the last few weeks have seen celebs such as Marvel superhero Simu Liu, comedians Roy Wood Jr and Wanda Sykes, Hollywood star Brooke Shields, and Sunday Today anchor Willie Geist step into Kelly’s shoes.

While Kelly has been away the show has kept to its usual roster of big-name guests, with TV and film stars such as The White Lotus star Patrick Schwarzenegger, Amanda Seyfried, Smokey Robinson, Bridgerton’s Simone Ashley, Joshua Jackson, Kneecap’s Michael Fassbender, and the four winners of the newest series of US The Traitors on the show to discuss their latest projects.

Despite Kelly seemingly having a full deck of hosts and guests ready to step in, Barbie star Simu hinted that things weren’t running so smoothly behind the scenes.

When presenting the chat show last week, he explained to confused fans: “Before we get things started, I do have a confession to make. I am not…Kelly Clarkson. I know this may shock many of you. But Kelly was not able to make it today, we’re sending her our very best.”

He then explained that his hosting role was hoisted on him at the very last minute, sharing: “Here’s the thing, I did not know that I was doing this until five minutes ago when I arrived here to promote my new movie Last Breath.

“…So I’m here now, and I’m not one to back down from a challenge,” he said, even going on to interview his own co-stars from the upcoming film.
