Amanda Kloots confirms 'very new' relationship with former tennis star Justin Gimelstob
Amanda Kloots is in a "very new" relationship with Justin Gimelstob.
The 43-year-old star – whose husband Nick Cordero passed away aged 41 from COVID-19 in 2020 – made her red carpet debut with the former tennis player at an event for The Women's Cancer Research Fund on Monday (28.04.25) and explained that the pair are still in the "courting" phase of the romance.
Amanda told People: "It's been absolutely lovely."
Justin added: "I hope to never leave that stage. I was admiring her, well before she gave me a shot."
When asked what they loved about each other, the former tennis pro – who won two Grand Slam mixed doubles titles with Venus Williams in 1998 - stressed that he could list things "all night".
Gimelstob, 48, said: "She's just an incredibly special person. Obviously, she's physically beautiful, but the way she handles everything. She's so classy and has so much grace and is an amazing mother.
"She cares about people. She's generous in spirit. She has a beautiful energy and is an amazing athlete. I mean, I could keep going and going."
Amanda said: "He's a wonderful man, (and) wonderful father. I love how he takes care of me."
The former co-host of 'The Talk' explained last year that she had been given Nick's blessing to find love again after claiming that she spoke to her late husband through mediums.
Kloots, who has five-year-old son Elvis with Nick, explained: "He has definitely given me his blessing. And he always says it's coming.
"That's one of the running themes from readings that I've had, that it's coming. I know you're lonely. It's coming. I don't know. We'll see."
Amanda previously expressed her determination to make sure that the Broadway actor is "never forgotten".
The TV star wrote on Instagram on Father's Day last year: "Remembering @nickcordero1 on this Father's Day. Though you left us too soon, your legacy lives on in Elvis! Your love, strength, and guidance are deeply missed every day. Today, we celebrate you and the incredible father you were. We say your name every day to make sure you're never forgotten. (sic)"
Amanda also expressed her support for other families who have experienced similar loss.
She continued: "On this Father's Day, my heart goes out not only to those who have lost a father but also to those like me who lost a husband too soon. Cherish the memories, celebrate their love, and hold onto the lessons they taught us. Sending love to everyone missing a special man today."

Cynthia Nixon opens up on 'intense' relationship with her And Just Like That... co-stars
Cynthia Nixon has an "intense" friendship with her 'And Just Like That...' co-stars. The 59-year-old actress has reprised her role as Miranda Hobbes in the 'Sex and the City' spin-off and explained that bond with co-stars Kristin Davis and Sarah Jessica Parker is all a result of how long they have all been working together. She told People: "I just think the longevity, I mean the intensity of it, but also the longevity of it, because there's something about knowing and loving a person, but then when you know them for so long, you know their children and their parents and their spouses and their friends. "When you understand somebody in their complete context, I feel like that's when you really know them." Meanwhile, actress - who starred on 'Sex and the City' throuhgout its original run from 1998 until 2004 and has appeared on the spin-off since its inception in 2021 - recently saw her alter-ego have a dalliance with a character played by Rosie O'Donnell, and explained that the writers had been trying to get the famed comedienne on board for years. "Michael Patrick King, who writes our show, and is one of the chief writers on our show, has been trying to write a part for Rosie every season and it's never quite worked out. She said: "So this time when he told me what the idea was, I thought, 'Oh this is fantastic, and he let me text her myself and describe it and say, you know, could we please send you this script?' With all our fingers and toes crossed.' "She is so funny and she is so funny in the part, but she's so centered and so real. "I think that we knew she would be hilarious, but I think we were unprepared for how moving she would be in the part, how incredibly sincere and how much she would wear her heart on her sleeve."

Hilary Duff is 'proud' of how she and her husband cope with days that 'seem impossible' to deal with
Hilary Duff is "proud" of how she and her husband cope with days that "seem impossible" to deal with. The 37-year-old actress is married to musician Matthew Koma - with whom she has Banks, six, Mae, four, and 12-month-old Townes - and took to social media to celebrate his 38th birthday on Monday (02.06.25), where she insisted that she has a "more balanced" life now because of him. She wrote on Instagram: "My sweet insta poet - I can't compete with your compilation of words but I can share that every one of my days are comfier, funnier, sturdier, and more balanced with you in them. We have celebrated a lot of June 2nds together and since slide nine we've tripled in size. "I'm so proud of us - making it through some of these days seems impossible but you are always there to cook or pack a meal, keep us caffeinated, carry all the bags, let me add one more stop/plan to our day, have a last minute party, or add a new animal into our already pulling at the seams life. " The former 'Lizzie McGuire' star - who was initially married to Mike Comrie and has 13-year-old Luca with him - feels "lucky" to have had her children with Matthew, but joked that she just "hopes" that they have inherited some sort of "filter" from her. She added: "This wild house loves you. You have the most curvy/interesting mind. Truly enthralled and entertained to hear takes from it everyday. I'm lucky our kids are half you and dear god hope they get some filter from me. I hope all your dreams come true this year and and I hope we get a few more Ojai sleeps than the last. Happy 38 Daddy!"
