The pair gave birth to their first child Olivia in 2011, a few months after their marriage. Following her, she gave birth to four more children, Joshua (8), Annabel (6), Emilia (4), and Gwendolyn (2).

Despite having a large family, James Van Der Beek and Kimberly have experienced five miscarriages, with the last one was in January of 2020.

The situations seem like the reason for which they had kept the news of their sixth pregnancy private. James further added:

“After suffering a brutal, very public miscarriage last November, we were overjoyed to learn we were pregnant. This time, we kept the news to ourselves. But last weekend, once again, 17 weeks in… the soul we’d been excited to welcome into the world had lessons for our family that did not include joining us in a living physical body.”
