HEARTBROKEN Amanda Kloots – whose husband Nick Cordero died on Sunday from coronavirus complications, aged 41 – shared a poignant look at his phone.
Kloots, 38, revealed that she found photos and videos on her late husband's phone after opening it for the first time in three months – due to Cordero's hospitalization from the virus.
"Just opened nicks phone for the first time. 835 texts since he went into a coma," she wrote on her Instagram stories on Tuesday.
"I looked at Nicks phone today and found some gems that I'll share with you," she added, sharing an image taken on March 16 of Cordero with their son Elvis Eduardo – who turned one in June.
She shared further pictures of Nick and Elvis posing next to the family's "first car," as well as a sweet shot of the family enjoying an outdoor picnic.
Kloots also posted several videos from his phone of him performing.
The late Broadway star is seen in one shot, improvising the lyrics to a cheerful tune, singing, "You can make a song about anything / About a car or a bus or a bird that sings / You can make a song about a bell that rings / You can make a song about anything."
In another video shot by Cordero, his devoted wife can be seen singing House of Pain's Jump Around, and cradling their infant son in her arms.
She explained that the happy clip was filmed on March 25 – just days before Nick was hospitalized.
Cordero died on Sunday morning at the Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, where he had been hospitalized for over 90 days due to complications of the novel coronavirus.
"God has another angel in heaven now. My darling husband passed away this morning. He was surrounded in love by his family, singing and praying as he gently left this earth," Kloots wrote in an Instagram tribute on Sunday.
"I am in disbelief and hurting everywhere. My heart is broken as I cannot imagine our lives without him.
"Nick was such a bright light. He was everyone’s friend, loved to listen, help and especially talk. He was an incredible actor and musician.
"He loved his family and loved being a father and husband. Elvis and I will miss him in everything we do, everyday," she shared, alongside a black-and-white portrait of him.
