James Van Der Beek’s wife posts touching message to him amid his cancer battle

James Van Der Beek’s second wife Kimberly shared a touching message of support to him on Sunday mere hours after he went public with his colorectal cancer battle.

The 42-year-old ‘medical intuitive’ Instastoried How Things Work’s post about Northern cardinals being romantic because they ‘mate for life, travel together, sing before nesting, and feed each other seed beak-to-beak during courtship.’

Kimberly captioned her message with a rose emoji and wrote: ‘Hi baby @vanderjames!’

The 47-year-old Dawson’s Creek alum originally met Van Der Beek (born Brook) in Israel back in 2009, and they celebrated their 14th wedding anniversary on August 1.

’14 years… I always say it doesn’t feel like that long. You always say it does,’ James gushed at the time.

‘Nothing could have prepared us for this past year – except perhaps the previous 12. Thank you for being the most incredible partner. You’ve broken me open in spots I didn’t even know were locked, and taught me how to receive more love than I thought possible. 

‘In the past, I feel like you’ve always set the pace for our co-evolution, but this year, as I’ve gone through my own radical transformation, you’ve tirelessly put in the work and somehow managed to match it. Thank you for your courage, your strength, your vulnerability and your tenderness. I’m thrilled and grateful to get to do this life with you. And now… let’s have a laugh. I love you beyond. Happy anniversary. Thank you for being in the world.’

The Van Der Beeks share their 36-acre Texas ranch located 45 minutes outside of Austin with their six children – daughter Olivia, 14; son Joshua, 12; daughter Annabel, 10; daughter Emilia, 8; daughter Gwendolyn, 6; and son Jeremiah, 3.

Earlier on Sunday, the Connecticut-born blond confirmed to People: ‘I have colorectal cancer. I’ve been privately dealing with this diagnosis and have been taking steps to resolve it, with the support of my incredible family. There’s reason for optimism, and I’m feeling good.’
