The unnamed insider added that the "Because of You" singer is "completely fine," and noted that it is "not a cause for alarm," claiming that Clarkson would be back on air on March 13—however, that was not the case. Instead, Molly Sims appeared as a guest host, telling viewers that she would also be hosting the show on March 14.

The singer has missed 10 tapings of "The Kelly Clarkson Show" since early March, with guest hosts filling in for her.

Several days after Kelly Clarkson suddenly disappeared from her eponymous talk show, Parade learned the host has returned to taping in her rightful place. A source confirmed to Parade that the host was back in the studio filming upcoming episodes on Thursday, March 13.
