Overview
- Heather McComb shared photos of a small wedding to actor Scott Michael Campbell held this past weekend in Missoula, Montana and confirmed the couple had been engaged since April 2025.
- The ceremony came roughly three months after James Van Der Beek died on February 11, 2026, after a public fight with colon cancer.
- Initial reporting cited a Travis County medical examiner representative who logged Van Der Beek’s death at 6:44 a.m. and did not disclose a cause in early reports.
- Accounts vary on the end year of McComb’s marriage to Van Der Beek, with some outlets reporting a separation in 2009 and others saying 2010, but all agree the divorce occurred well before her relationship with Campbell.
- McComb’s Instagram drew mixed responses from fans who called the timing too soon and from friends and followers who praised her new chapter; there are no new official updates about Van Der Beek’s cause of death.
