Kimberly Van Der Beek honored her late husband, James Van Der Beek, with an emotional Father's Day post on Instagram.
She wrote, “Missing you so much and thinking of how magnificent you were in every single way today.
And somehow, from the other side? You continue to parent.
You're a marvel.”
The tribute marks the first Father's Day since the actor's death, reflecting both her grief and the lasting presence she feels he maintains in their family.
Fans and friends flooded the comments with condolences and support.
TMZ reported that the “Dawson's Creek” star died after battling stage 3 colorectal cancer, which he announced in late 2024.
His death drew tributes across Hollywood.
A GoFundMe for his children raised over $1 million within 24 hours of his death and now stands at approximately $2.9 million.
