The “Does He Love You” song tells the tale of a sordid love triangle and details a conversation between a wife and ‘the other woman.’ Many years later, this song could be the key question about Reba’s stepson and his marriage to Kelly. There was plenty of speculation of Brandon cheating on Kelly Clarkson and the divorce process became very frustrating for Kelly. Kelly filed for divorce on June 4, 2020, after nearly seven years of marriage, citing “irreconcilable differences.”
Clarkson asked the court to enforce their prenuptial agreement and block spousal support, It was reported that Brandon was seeking $436,000 a month —$301,000 in spousal support and $135,000 in child support — from Kelly and also requested for Clarkson to pay his $2 million attorney fees. The divorce process remains messy with Blackstock contesting many aspects of the divorce and prior entertainment business support for Kelly’s career. While Kelly Clarkson lives in Los Angeles for work, Blackstock plans to continue to live in Montana.
Reba McEntire and Kelly Clarkson remain friends despite the messy divorce from her step-son. Discover more about Kelly’s ex husband Brandon and learn details about the original Reba and Linda Davis performance of the song below.

“Does He Love You” Lyrics
I’ve known about you for a while now
When he leaves me, he wears a smile now
As soon as he’s away from me
In your arms is where he wants to be
But you’re the one he rushes home to
You’re the one he gave his name to
I never see his face in the early morning light
You have his mornings, his daytime
And sometimes, I have his nights
But does he love you
(Does he love you)
Like he loves me?
(Like he loves me?)
Does he think of you
(Does he think of you)
When he’s holding me?
And does he whisper
(Does he whisper)
All of his fantasies
Does he love you
(Does he love you)
Like he’s been lovin’ me?
But when he’s with me
He says he needs me
And that he wants me
That he believes in me
And when I’m in his arms
Oh, he swears there’s no one else
Is he deceiving me
Or am I deceiving myself
But does he love you
(Does he love you)
Like he loves me?
(Like he loves me?)
Does he think of you
(Does he think of you)
When he’s holding me?
And does he whisper
(Does he whisper)
Of his fantasies
Does he love you
(Does he love you)
Like he’s been lovin me?
Shouldn’t I lose my temper
(Shouldn’t I be ashamed)
‘Cause I have everything to lose
(And I, I have nothing to gain)
But does he love you
(Does he love you)
Like he loves me?
(Like he loves me?)
Does he think of you
(Does he think of you)
When he’s holding me?
And does he whisper
(Does he whisper)
Of his fantasies
Does he love you
(Does he love you)
Like he’s been lovin’ me?
Oh, does he love you?
