Brandon Blackstock's "soulmate" Brittney Marie Jones, identified in Blackstock's obituary as his "loving partner in life and business," previously worked as Kelly Clarkson's production assistant.

The obituary, which describes Jones as Blackstock’s “beautiful and loving partner in life and business,” does not mention Clarkson.

"Yesterday we lost a good man Brandon Blackstock my daughter's soulmate and I considered him my son," he wrote in the Facebook post.
