Exactly! All the support buoyed her at the darkest time in her life. What cold-hearted person would begrudge her that? Not to mention at least a million people now know Nick Cordero's music as a result, which is a lovely tribute and some consolation in light of her guilt about not supporting that part of his career.

Most beetches on DCUM cannot fathom loving their DHs. LOL!!

I hadn’t heard anything about her for a while until this...

A million doesn't got that far when you are in your 30's and living in LA. She still needs an income.

Plus I assumed that a lot of that money went to paying hospital bills. Being in the hospital for that long... they must have bills in the multi-millions.

+1 I'd be surprised if she raised enough to pay them off completely.

In think "social media influencer" as a profession is gag-worthy for so many reasons, regardless of how many followers.

That said, I will NEVER judge a parent (legally and safely) supporting their family.

Never heard of her before this, but after reading the profile, I agree.

Continuing to profit from his illness and death means that she’s still not a good wife.

But perhaps a good mother. She no longer has a husband and is in a notoriously unstable industry. If she needs the cash to support her child, who are we to criticize her?

She was doing this well before she knew he was going to pass away. Relentless social media updates showing her dancing “to relieve stress” while he was in the hospital, constant magazine profiles... she was looking to profit off of the fact that he was a moderately well known Broadway performer who was not doing well. Today she has to sell us the story that she wasn’t a good wife. She’ll come up with something else tomorrow.

If my partner ever tried to publicize and profit off of my lingering decline and death, I would hope that someone would tell him to show me a little respect and quit with the tears for dollars.

And I would say the opposite - if my partner had to go through that and I ended up dead, they can do whatever makes them happy and secure and supports our kids. You sound self-obsessed.

You make no sense. You’re sticking up for someone who flies to the media with stories about herself and her deceased husband on a frequent basis, but call someone who objects to that self obsessed? You’ve got it backwards.

Society’s loss of basic decency should make none of this a surprise. It’s just sad.

You wrote this! "I would hope that someone would tell him to show me a little respect and quit with the tears for dollars." YOU WOULD BE DEAD. Get over yourself, narcissist.

+1 The rigidity and lack of empathy are ridiculous.

Yeah PP thinks it's preferable that her spouse languish nobly, sobbing over her picture, rather than hustle to support their child and take comfort from whatever helps them feel better and more alive.

If you think Amanda Kloots is fake, wait until you meet her other sister---Anna Kloots. She's reportedly an 'influencer' who fufilled her life long dream of moving to Paris. She was once married to a .......magician who, seemingly walked out on her with no warning, thereby ending the marriage.

Back to Amanda, I share the sentiments of some other posters who think she's capitalizing on the death of her husband. She's now saying she wasn't a 'good wife'. The internalized misogyny aside, who is to say they would've been together had covid-19 not claimed his life? Clearly, based on her own admission, it appeared they were not on the same page on more than one issue. One can be sorry for her loss while also finding her phony, fake and insufferable.
