Kelly opened up about how her children reacted to the prospect of her dating anyone other than their father, adding it was a constant topic in her house.
"They constantly bring it up, 'Please, we don't want you with anybody else,'" she revealed on KOST 103.5. "They're young. It's hard to picture their mom with someone else other than their dad."
While she may not be dating anyone at the moment, the "Stronger" singer is enjoying single life and plans not to follow her kids' wishes when it comes to her love life.

"I've got a lot on my plate. I'm a magnet for people who are really all-in right off the bat," she explained.

River turned 10 this year, while Remington is eight, meaning Kelly's current priorities revolve around watching her children grow up: "I'm seeing my kids grow real fast, and it's going by real fast."
"I'm happy for them because I enjoy all the stages. I love hanging with my little ones. They're so funny and they're so cool and they're only going to want me around for so long because they're my kids."
"I know they're going to be like me and be like, 'Bye!' Which I'm cool with, but I want to enjoy it for as long as I can," she added.

"I know with me and Brandon, it's just a difficult thing because we're in different places, and it's like, we both agree on the main things, but it's a hard thing when you're not together all the time, for me personally," she added, while expressing that they prioritized their children.
"As long as you make sure it's about the children and their best interests, then we're both on board."
