Amanda Kloots is a mother, author, fitness entrepreneur, co-host of the daytime talk show The Talk, and has been a bright light to many this past year. The story of her late husband, Nick Cordero’s fight with COVID-19 reached millions and as Amanda documented their journey on social media, she captured the heart of America with her unwavering hope in the midst of a scary unknown. After ninety-four days in the hospital Amanda’s husband, Nick, passed away from complications of COVID-19.
