Michelle Williams has confirmed she is “absolutely” staying in touch with her former co-star, James Van Der Beek, as he navigates his fight against cancer.
Speaking to ET on April 2 at the premiere of her new series, “Dying for Sex,” the 44-year-old actress stated, “We’re in contact, and he’s in our hearts and our minds, and he knows that.”
“And we’re here for him in every possible way,” Michelle told the outlet, though it remains unclear who she meant by “we.”
For those unfamiliar, Michelle and James previously collaborated on the popular teen drama “Dawson’s Creek.”
In November 2024, James disclosed his diagnosis of colorectal cancer.
“I’ve been privately dealing with this diagnosis and have been taking steps to address it, with the support of my incredible family,” he shared with People magazine at the time.
The 48-year-old actor added, “There’s reason to be optimistic, and I’m feeling good.”
