Van Der Beek widow reveals how she’s coping after tragedy

Kimberly Van Der Beek shares an emotional update on grief and family three months after James Van Der Beek’s passing.

In a heartfelt post on her Instagram account on Tuesday, May 12, the film producer described the weight of loss while also speaking about shifting perspective as time passes.

“To say I’m heartbroken is a severe understatement,” she wrote alongside photos of James with their children.

“Words just don’t capture what grief is. The comforts of shock have worn off. The reality is settling in … and I miss him. We all miss him.”

She continued, "There is a different kind of magic in the air. I feel him. I know him more deeply. My conscious connection to God has deepened.”

Moreover, she spoke about feeling a sense of purpose in the family’s journey, adding, “The veils of the universe have thinned. And I trust that this is the path me and my family have always been intended to walk."

Furthermore, she noted, "The outpouring of support has been tremendous. It's held our family in the most beautiful of ways...I am deeply grateful. There is so much more to share here. And in time- I will."

For the unfamiliar, Kimberly and James exchanged vows in 2010 and are parents to six children, Olivia, Annabel, Emilia, Gwendolyn, Joshua, and Jeremiah.
