- Nearly two years after Broadway star Nick Cordero died of complications from COVID, his widow Amanda Kloots sat down to talk about life, loss and moving forward. Nick was one of the first public figures to die from the virus. Amanda wrote a book about her journey and is now a co-host on CBS' "The Talk." David Begnaud visited her at home in California to find out how she and her young son Elvis are doing.

just because she is open to dating and move on in life - it doesn't mean her grief period is over - people are cruel. She still loves Nick so much. She deserves to be happy - go Amanda!
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Unless you have been through what Amanda has been through... one cannot understand what that is like. Grief is not only inside you, it is all around you. It never goes away, it just constantly changes.
She is strong and courageous and deserves all the happiness in the world. We love you, Amanda!🥰
Wish nothing but true love and healing for her. This is so sad. She is handling it all beautifully. True inspiration
She is so true. I lost my mom almost 5 years ago it doesn’t get better. You just learned to deal with it.
Never judge how people grieve.
I adore Amanda. She’s such a positive, beautiful light in this world!! So inspiring ❤️
The waves of grief can indeed hit deeply and like a ton of bricks.😢💔😪 I know this feeling personally as I mourn my beloved adopted mom still. Who passed right before Christmas, Mother’s Day the firsts of many first, was incredibly difficult it still is. Rest In Peace continuously to Nick and I appreciate Amanda’s openness and vulnerability to share her story and journey as well…💛
I lost my mom two years ago. It does hit like a ton of bricks. I still have bouts of crying out of nowhere. Mother’s Day is very tough indeed.
@@Artysmarty150 my mother died two years ago of complications of covid she was in the hospital for 24 days i missed her so much😢. i feel your pain.
@@johnathanshell8190 I’m so sorry. I know it hurts so much.
@@Artysmarty150 it does Dee Beck its almost lead to sucidial thoughts but iam still here by the grace of God btw iam sorry for your loss.
This woman is a fighter. She deserves all the happiness in the world. Wishing her and Elvis the best. ❤
Amanda has such a beautiful and humble spirit
David you are such an awesome reporter, so humble and down to earth. Thankyou!
No one has right to criticize if you have not walked in their shoes. Nick's story, John Prine's and Charley Pride's effected me the most with this horrible plague that turned everyone's lives upside down
This woman handled a horrific situation with class and grace. Anyone criticizing her should be ashamed of themselves. She deserves nothing by love, light and happiness wherever her future leads her and Elvis. Nick would be proud!
She is right about that grief hitting like a ton of bricks out of nowhere. Happened to me the other day. Aww God bless her. I’m a fan now 🙏🏻🤍✨
She needs to make a happy place for her son… ❤️☀️ with her musical mornings, she show me how to coupe with my grief after losing my mother to Covid-19.. I will forever be great full to Amanda and Elvis. ❤️🌹
I love Amanda. It's great seeing her on the talk. I have no doubt her moving on is what Nick would want for her and Elvis.
Rest in Paradise Nick. Blessing to Amanda and Elvis.
Everyone needs to read her book! I'm currently reading it for the 2nd time.
David Begnaud used to be a reporter in Sacramento CBS13. Amanda is a lovely person. I admire her strength. I lost my husband too in 2006. It never gets easier. You just learn to deal with it. But she has a great attitude. Also, a good job. Good for her.
Wow, she’s so lovely. I wish her the best ❤️.
I remember when this happened and I was so hoping he was going to pull through.
Yes, we were all shocked when he didn't make it. It was like OK, this virus is for real.
Same here. I got corona that year. Got dropped off at the hospital. I was in ICU and the same week i left heathy.I'll never forget Nick's battle.
That was a perfect description of grief. It comes out of nowhere and can be a ton of bricks. I will have a 4 year anniversary in August and it could have been yesterday.
Amanda you are a precious soul,love to all who reads this❤
Nick came cross my mind the other day when I was thinking about the early parts of the pandemic. Still so sad that he is gone.
You're not replacing his shoes at the fireplace of your life. You're just adding another pair that adds to what nic added to your life. I understand. My husband passed 7 years ago and when nic passed I sent you a short writing from a book I wrote. I hope it has helped you in your journey. Stay strong. Your love for him in your heart will never be replaced just added to.
Amanda is a very brave resilient woman. Wishing her and her child nothing but the best.
I lost my love a few months before Nick died. My Ricky died in March 2020. I miss him everyday. No amount of time that passes will take away the grief.
What an amazing woman! Grief absolutely does Not stop. Lost my husband 11 mos ago (not Covid related). I totally get where she's coming from. God Bless her
The steps for brief are all the same ,however we all grieve differently ,and NO ONE should ever tell someone who is going through that process it’s time to stop.
Wishing her and Elvis love and peace
The saddest part is when you have a loss this big , it only gets harder as years go by instead of easier , in the beginning your mind is in shock , and everyone is there , but then you have to live your life , like she said all alone , she is so young so hopefully in the future she finds a good man
Grief doesn’t end it’s very true
Agree friend
Elvis is lucky that he will grow up with pics of him and Nick together. It doesn't take the place of him actually being there but my dad died 2 weeks before I was born and I don't have that and I'm almost 60 years old and it still affects me.
This is the only news channel I will watch👍🏼❤️💓🌠
This is the first time I ever watched the Talk since Marie Osmond was on there!
So Sorry Amanda that you lost Elvis's father Nick!😢❤
One can only understand 'a ton of bricks" if they experience....
God bless you guys Amanda stay strong
She's so right, fore it's been seven years and I'm not better.
She is truly AMAZING!!!
Woah...I hadn't actually heard he died. I just knew his leg had been amputated. I'm surprised that slipped by me, let alone after two years.
I really didn't know much about his work but I had seen him as Victor Lugo on Blue Bloods.
shes a wonderful person.
The staff in that ICU knew he was never going to leave that hospital; he was going to die. He suffered a tremendous amount before he finally did die. They all have to live with that knowledge.
Had NO IDEA he had died! Only saw him in his recurring role as Victor Lugo on Blue Bloods. So sad.
Happy for her
Losing Nick was horrible & Is. RIP, Nick Cordero .
an older lady had covid just recent.. she was laid out for 2 weeks then got better AT HOME. but here amanda forced him to hospital.. bad move , she basically polished him at that point
Rest peacefully you will be missed our prayers are always with yall forever more AMEN from lenny green and NAE NAE AND OUR BEAUTIFUL SOLDIERS OF CHILDREN KAMIKA STARSHIMA AND DAVID GREEN 🙏
As a retired nurse five of my twenty year career were spent on an Oncology unit ,I had to council families of my terminally I’ll cancer patients,thecs
People need to live her along lose your husband the way she did by him getting coronavirus and have to go to the hospital and see him be sick and u can't do anything to help it is heard I had to watch my dad passed away and be sick and there was nothing I could do to help him was the worst pain in the would and if u was in her place u would know how it fills it not easier
She's awesome gorgeous
Some men get MARRIED soon after their spouses die and she got flack for dating? Whoo, the double standards are wild!!!
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Rich people get away with things that normal people cant and yes ill be happy to say it to your face but saying that losing someone in your life is hard and there’s definitely not a time frame for mourning and date when you want
What the heck are you even saying? And there is NOTHING WRONG WITH BEING RICH. (Unless you do it immorally or illegally) It means you worked for it. You didn't squander your time, talents, money... RICH people are the REASON we have ANYTHING! They're the ones who start companies, foundations, etc. where people are employed, invent things, developed things including scientific and medical discoveries... Get off the "Rich people are evil" bandwagon and make something of YOURSELF. Make the world a better place. Don't waste your money, talents, time...
Was that one sentence ??
@@janeoleary8454what are you the grammar police if i wanted to worry about my grammar or spelling ill work in an office
@@22lyric ha youre funny most rich people havent worked a day in their life what are you smoking give me some please
@@thedude4762 Yes I am
"Visited his friend, Amanda..." @0:36. Gayle King is as ignorant as they come.
She moved on quickly
I realized that the secret to making a million is saving for a better investment. I always tell myself you don't need that new Maserati or that vacation just yet. That mindset helped me make more money investing. For example last year I invested 80k in stocks (with the help of my Financial Advisor of course) and made about 246k, but guess what? put it all back and traded with her again and now I'm rounding up close to a million.
This is exactly what I do, I trade with a registered professional My crypto mentor Mrs Angela Cole Carr, many may have come across her on a few interviews invested last two weeks and it profited me a higher success.
I also trade with her, and earn $2,600 every week. All my family have been trading with her and making profits
Hellow base in New York and heard alot of people makes money through bitcoin trading, how does it work?
@@Noah-ts9dy Yh, Bitcoin is a better investment for a long term potential gain..
I am Long term investment. invested $6,500 in march last year with Mrs Angela and top up my trade with $500 every week. Now, I'm having over $147,000 on my dashboard. Toping up your trade is really important
Just keep bringing the Covid up. Enough.
That guy is creepy AF.
EXACTLY WHAT I WAS THINKING!! I felt like he was hitting on her and asking ALOT of questions about her personal, dating life.
She’s hot. Her husband knew she’d find another man.
Omg🤣🤣🤣 bruh wilden
Who cares she don't look like she struggling much
Shut up alot of people care and she is struggling 🙄
leave her Amanda kloots alone and show some compassion for her and her son Elvis.
Please...enough of her bs.
Bob saget wife will move on quickly too
Saget was murdered. it will come out eventually. Ask your doctor how those specific injuries could have been self-inflicted. I asked mine and he knew immediately.
@@Cathy-xi8cb I always thought something was very off about his death.
Complications is what it is, no need to keep sensationalizing this virus. It could have been complications from any virus
"Don't take this virus seriously because I am anti-science and anti-common sense."
No, it was a blood clot caused by covid. How often do you hear of blood clots from the flu?
Typical
So she is basically cheating on him
Are you on drugs
Youre not all there.... He is dead. How is she cheating?
When you take your wedding vows....its till death do us part...SMH....get your facts straight.
Even when people dont die, when they also get annulled or divorced it also ends the marriage.
Should have been healthier
Nick seemed pretty healthy to me
What?
