Heather McComb, former wife of the late James Van Der Beek, has remarried just three months after the actor’s passing. McComb, who was married to Van Der Beek from 2003 to 2010, exchanged vows this past weekend with actor Scott Michael Campbell in an intimate outdoor ceremony held in Missoula, Montana.
The 49-year-old actress, known for her roles on shows like Party of Five and Profiler, shared the joyous news on her official Instagram account on May 31. She revealed that her sister, Essence Atkins, officiated the wedding, which was attended by close family and friends.
McComb expressed her gratitude and happiness in the post, writing, “Yesterday, Scott and I under the covenant of God got officially married by my beautiful sister, 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.”

Thank you Jesus, the way maker, miracle worker!”
