The couple has had a few challenges together, including Kimberly recently having two miscarriages.

The family lives in Beverly Hills home, which was really featured by Vogue. Their home underwent a makeover by designer Tammy Price, just before the pandemic lockdown.

James has been mourning the recent death of his mother, Melinda. He paid tribute to her in an Instagram post.

The actor said that while the family knew it was coming, they were still in shock. He said he takes comfort in the thought that his mother was no longer in pain.
