Kelly Clarkson is opening up about her divorce.

During a recent interview on the singer's daytime talk show, Clarkson, 38, spoke with Alicia Keys and author Glennon Doyle about her divorce.

During the chat, the "American Idol" brought up her divorce from Brandon Blackstock, her husband of seven years, calling the process "horrible."

"There are so many hard parts," she explained. "The hardest for me is the kids, that's the hardest for me. I think, as women especially, we're trained ... to take it all on and you can deal with it and you're fine, but it's your babies that you worry about."

Clarkson praised Doyle's book, "Untamed" and said it made her take stock of her own marriage.

She recalled feeling that her marriage "isn't happiness for both of us," and that both she and Blackstock "deserve better."
