TRUTH DOESN’T DIE –
Jan. 7, 2025 – I was with one of my really dear friends, and we were cleaning out the closet and picking out an outfit for him for the funeral,” Holker told People for a recent cover story. “It was a really triggering moment for me because there were a lot of things I discovered in our closet that I did not know existed. It was very alarming to me to learn that there was so much happening that I had no clue [about].”
Holker said it was incredibly scary to make this discovery, but it also “helped me process that he was going through so much and he was hiding so much, and there must have been a lot of shame in that.”
While Holker said she believed she and her husband had honest communication with each other, through reading his journals in hopes of finding clarity, she learned he hid many painful secrets, even from the people closest to him.
