James Van Der Beek and his Kimberly have their sixth child. Previously, the couple experienced two miscarriages in quick succession.
Actor James Van Der Beek (44) and his wife Kimberly (39) welcome their sixth child. The birth of little Jeremiah comes for the couple after two miscarriages in quick succession. The happy mother posted a picture of the baby on Instagram. She wrote about it: “Life is so fulfilling that words fail me. Jeremiah Van Der Beek, thank you for being here”.
“Dawson’s Creek” star James Van Der Beek had the birth a few hours earlier announced on Instagram. The couple had kept the pregnancy a secret after two consecutive miscarriages. The actor wrote that his wife had cervical surgery, a measure that is usually only recommended after three miscarriages. Jeremiah was now born naturally.
