"There was so much love and joy that my family has learned and experienced, and that is the reason of this pain. That is something beautiful," she said. "I had 13 magical years that a lot of people don't get to have. I got to have that. I got to have that grand love."

Holker also addressed public opinion on how she portrays her grief.
"I am such a public figure that people have a lot of opinions in how I should be handling myself, how I should be handling the grief and what they expect to see, what they expect me to say, what they expect to hear from me," she said.
"I've always been a person that I have to do things my way in my own pacing in my own time and that's going to come sometimes with a lot of emotion for other people," she added. "And I think I've just had to challenge myself to stay my own course because I have to go through this at my time to be the best version of myself and the best version of my kids. And then I can come forward and use my voice and help as many people as I can."
