Singer Kelly Clarkson's ex-husband Brandon Blackstock will be receiving nearly $200,000 in spousal and child support every month.

People reported that a Los Angeles County judge handed down the order on Tuesday that the American Idol alum is required to pay her former partner $150,000 monthly in spousal support, as well as $45,601 for child support.

Blackstock, 43, will now receive $195,601 from Clarkson each month, making it around $2.4 million per year.

Clarkson has also been ordered to pay an additional $1.25million for her ex-husband’s attorney fees and the legal costs of their divorce case.

Earlier, it was revealed by a source cited by People that Blackstock had been eyeing double the amount of what was ordered by court, for child and spousal support, requesting that his estranged wife pay him $436,000 per month.
