His wife Kimberly posted a lengthy IG post Tuesday with snaps of James and his kids … and it really pulls on the heartstrings.
The beloved actor’s widow wrote in part … “To say I’m heartbroken is a severe understatement. 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.”
TMZ broke the news … the “Dawson’s Creek” star died after battling stage 3 colorectal cancer, which he announced in late 2024.
Kimberly’s latest message was not all heartbreak — there’s hope, too … “I feel him. I know him more deeply. My conscious connection to God has deepened. 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.”
She closed the message thanking everyone for their outpouring of love and support … and to say there is a lot is an understatement. As we reported … a GoFundMe organized for his children raised more than a million dollars.
