Amanda Kloots’ unbreakable bond with her 6-year-old son, Elvis, isn’t complete without a little bit of faith.
“We just started reading a little children’s Bible every night,” Kloots, 44, exclusively shared with Us Weekly while celebrating the grand opening of Treasure Beach Village at Beaches Turks & Caicos on May 16. “We get into bed, and we read a chapter of his Bible together.”
Before a new week begins, the former cohost of The Talk also celebrates “family day” each and every Sunday.
“It always has been since he was a baby and didn’t know what family day was, but we finally found a church in L.A. that I love,” Kloots shared. “We go to church every Sunday, and then go out to the beach, and we always say our prayers.”
Perhaps the greatest habit Kloots hopes to pass on to her son is the importance of gratitude.
While the best-selling author continues to navigate life after the death of her husband, Nick Cordero, in July 2020 following a lengthy battle with COVID-19, Kloots tries her best to look on the bright side of things.
“I just try to encourage [my son to] always count his blessings, because we’re so grateful,” she shared. “I mean, we’re living such a beautiful life, and we have to appreciate that.”

Back in February 2022, Kloots revealed she went to church for the first time in two years. After listening to Churchome Pastor Judah Smith speak live, the TV host was reminded of her faith.
“I didn’t know how much I missed and needed it,” she wrote via Instagram at the time. “Tonight was so beautiful, so inspiring and life thrilling for me. … All I can say is that tonight filled my heart and soul with so much happiness that I was pretending not to need.”
The countdown to Easter Sunday is on, and many in Hollywood are celebrating their faith out loud. Whether through social media and podcasts or TV shows and films, several celebrities aren’t afraid to share a glimpse into their spiritual journey with fans. For some religious leaders, it’s a decision that should be met with love […]
Kloots experienced new joyful memories when she traveled to Turks & Caicos for a special mother-son trip this month.
While experiencing the grand opening of Treasure Beach Village at Beaches Turks & Caicos, the duo enjoyed everything from snorkeling and swimming to dance parties and game nights.
“Elvis snorkeled for the first time, and he kept giving me hugs. He was like, ‘Mom, I did it! I snorkeled! I went into the ocean!’ Kloots recalled to Us. “I mean, the ocean in L.A. is not like this, so he was so proud of himself. It was a core memory being made, and it was so special.”
