Brandon Blackstock’s son Seth pays tribute to late dad after death

Brandon Blackstock’s son is remembering his father after the talent manager’s shocking death last week at 48.

Seth Blackstock, who Blackstock shared with his first wife, Melissa Ashworth, took to Instagram this weekend to remember his late dad as his “best friend” and “hero.”

“I lost my hero yesterday,” Seth, 18, began on Saturday, Aug. 9. “Words can’t describe how proud of you I am on raising me and your 3 other kids. You were a father, a son, a brother, and most importantly my best friend. You’ll have to watch me grow up from a Birds Eye view now but that’s ok with me.”

“There’s no one else on this earth that I would want to be my dad because no one can be half the man you were to me,” he continued alongside six sweet photos with his late dad. “I’ll see you everyday when the sun rises and falls.”

“I can confidently say all the deer and elk took a sigh of relief when the best hunter I’ve ever known laid his rifle down for the last time,” Brandon’s son wrote. “I love you so much and can’t wait to throw a line in the water with you again.”

“Love you dad,” he concluded the touching post. “Be good or good at it -love your son Seth.”

Blackstock, who was married to Kelly Clarkson from 2013 to 2022 and shared two children with the “Since U Been Gone” singer, passed away on Aug. 7 following a lengthy battle with melanoma, a serious form of skin cancer.
