The Talk co-host, Amanda Kloots has been executing flawless dances week after week on Dancing With The Stars. Her partner Alan Bersten choreographed a beautiful tribute to her late husband, Nick Cordero, to his song "Live Your Life."
Nick passed away in July 2020 due to coronavirus complications. In an emotional video package, Amanda revealed how she sat with her husband and held his hand while the doctors gradually took him off the ventilator.
"I just wanted him to know I had him," said Kloots, as partner Alan Bersten fought back tears. "We played 'Live Your Life' all day and we slowly let him go."
Nick was a Broadway actor and was admired by many across the globe. He died at the age of 41 and is survived by Kloots and their 2-year-old son, Elvis.
The ballroom was full of waterworks after their special performance which received a perfect score from the judges.

At the end of the dance, Kloots was tearful again, sharing, "When you’re grieving you feel so alone, but I had such an amazing support system." Turning to Bersten, she added that no matter what, she had that moment: "I want to thank Alan for this beautiful dance I’ll always have."
Somehow, Amanda Kloots and her partner Alan were in the bottom two but were unanimously saved by the judges. Amanda and Alan will compete in the finals for a chance at being crowned champions!
