Dancing With the Stars performing celebrity James Van Der Beek shared both heartbreak and pregnancy joy in a pre-taped package that aired just before his upbeat Quickstep performance alongside pro-Emma Slater to the tune “Walking on Sunshine.”
The former Dawson’s Creek star dropped the news that his wife Kimberly was expecting the couple’s sixth child.
He also revealed that he and his wife had also experienced three miscarriages together as they grew their beautiful brood, which includes their children: daughters Olivia, 9, Emilia, 3, Annabel Leah, 5, and Gwendolyn, 1 and a son Joshua, 7.
Shortly after his Dancing With the Stars announcement, where the family joined Kimberly at the doctor and the baby’s first ultrasound was shared on the series, the television personality shared the big news to his Instagram account with a photo that showed off all his kids, his stunning wife, and the family’s amazing news.
