Kelly Clarkson is returning to “The Voice” after her eponymous daytime talk show comes to an end.
“Team Kelly has RE-entered the chat. Kelly Clarkson returns as a Coach this fall on The Voice!” NBC announced via Instagram Thursday.
Clarkson originally appeared as a coach on the hit singing competition show from Seasons 14 to 21.
She then returned for Season 23, but later decided to leave the show and move to New York City with her two kids following her divorce from Brandon Blackstock.
The Grammy winner then returned once more for Season 29 last year.
On Jan. 19, Page Six exclusively revealed that the singer would be wrapping up “The Kelly Clarkson Show” after Season 7, which is currently airing.
One insider described her pending exit from daytime as “definite,” while another said it’s “likely that it will not go on.”
“[Her show] is a lot to put on, and looking at the landscape across daytime television, it’s not sustainable anymore,” the source said.
Clarkson, 44, confirmed the news herself in an emotional Instagram post on Feb. 2.
“I have been extremely fortunate to work with such an outstanding group of people at ‘The Kelly Clarkson Show,’ both in Los Angeles and New York,” she wrote at the time. “There have been so many amazing moments and shows over these seven seasons.”
The “Breakaway” songstress went on to say that she was “forever grateful and honored to have worked alongside the greatest band and crew you could hope for” as well as “all the talent and inspiring people who have shared their time and lives with us.”
She also praised all of her fans “who have supported our show” since its premiere in 2019, before thanking NBC for “always being such a supportive and incredible partner.”
Clarkson ended her message by acknowledging that while she is departing her daytime talk show after its current season, “this isn’t goodbye.”
In February, sources told People the “American Idol” winner was ready for her “next phase” that would give her “the space to be more present at home” with her two children — River Rose, 11, and Remington, 9.
Last summer, Clarkson was forced to step back from her show and take care of her family when Blackstock died following a private years-long battle with melanoma.
She made an emotional return to “The Kelly Clarkson Show” in September 2025.
