"The Talk's" newest co-host, Amanda Kloots' heart beamed, thanks to an image of her son, Elvis, who wore the same costume his father, Nick Cordero wore as part of his 2012 term on "Rock of Ages."

Kloots also shared on her Instagram stories, how the same material used to make Elvis' Hawaiian shirt was turned into a stuffed dog the little boy calls "Dada." CEGO Custom Shirtmaker was thrilled to have helped, writing in their caption:

"one of my very talented ladies transformed his costume into an outfit for their son Elvis. So glad that CEGO could turn this around."

It's been 5 months since Tony Award-winning actor, Cordero lost his life to Coronavirus complications on July 5, 2020. He was hospitalized in March before his condition deteriorated, prompting a resuscitation to help him breathe with an ECMO machine.

The Broadway actor endured 13 weeks in the hospital and suffered a septic shock, resulting in his right leg being amputated. Kloots remained strong throughout the ordeal until Cordero sadly lost his life in July.

As devastating as it was for 38-year-old Kloots to lose her husband, she credits her son for getting her through her ordeal and making her smile every day.

This December marks the first Christmas for Kloots and Elvis without Cordero. Luckily, Kloots' sister, Anna, will be there to lean on. The two have been making the most of their holiday season so far, sharing antics of enjoying wine on social media.

As devastating as it was for 38-year-old Kloots to lose her husband, she credits her son for getting her through her ordeal and making her smile every day. She revealed in an interview:

"Thank god I have a little piece of my husband. Anytime I'm sad, he brightens my mood in two seconds."

Just like her late husband, Kloots gained some Broadway experience, having started out as a professional dancer for "Good Vibrations" as well as being a former member of the New York City Rockettes.

Following an unexpected shutdown of the production she was involved in, Kloots found herself unemployed while in the midst of a divorce from a previous marriage. She buckled down and sought an entrepreneurial venture as a fitness instructor.
