Heather McComb, the ex-wife of late Dawson's Creek star James Van Der Beek, has remarried just three months after his death. The 49-year-old actress wed actor Scott Michael Campbell in an intimate ceremony in Missoula, Montana, over the weekend, surrounded by family and close friends.
Announcing the news on Instagram, McComb wrote: 'Yesterday @scottmichaelcampbell and I under the covenant of God got officially married by my beautiful sister Essence Atkins surrounded by the people we love most in the world in our most favorite city Missoula Montana. Our hearts are full and humbled by all of the love that we were surrounded by. God is so good.'
The wedding comes just three months after Van Der Beek died on 11 February following a battle with stage three colorectal cancer at the age of 48. McComb and Van Der Beek were married from 2003 until their divorce in 2010 and remained on good terms. Following his death, she paid tribute to him on social media, describing him as 'a beautiful soul filled with so much light, love, talent, humor, depth, sensitivity, knowledge and a deep love of God'.
Van Der Beek, best known for playing Dawson Leery in the hit teen drama Dawson's Creek, is survived by his wife Kimberly and their six children. In a statement announcing his death, Kimberly wrote: 'Our beloved James David Van Der Beek passed peacefully this morning. He met his final days with courage, faith, and grace.'
