Heather McComb Marries Scott Michael Campbell in Missoula — James Van Der Beek
Heather McComb married Scott Michael Campbell in Missoula, Montana, over the weekend, three months after james van der beek died at 48. She announced the marriage on Instagram and described the ceremony as intimate, with family and close friends gathered around them.
Missoula Weekend Vows
McComb wrote, "Yesterday @scottmichaelcampbell and I under the covenant of God got officially married by my beautiful sister Essence Atkins surrounded by the people we love most in the world in our most favorite city Missoula Montana," and added, "Our hearts are full and humbled by all of the love that we were surrounded by. God is so good."
The wedding was public in the simplest way possible: a slideshow of photographs from the day, then another post thanking the family and friends who traveled in. She said, "Thank you to all of our family and friends who traveled from all over the country to be with us. Thank you Jesus the way maker miracle worker!"
Three Months After February 11
February 11 marked the death of Van Der Beek after a battle with stage three colorectal cancer, ending a marriage that began in 2003 and ended in 2010. McComb later said, "I am heartbroken over the loss of beloved James," and added that she was "especially heartbroken for Kimberly and their six children."
Her tribute also laid out the closeness of the old family tie in blunt terms: she called him "a beautiful soul filled with so much light, love, talent, humor, depth, sensitivity, knowledge and a deep love of God that shined through him," and said, "I knew he loved being a father so much" and adored Kimberly "with his everything." That makes the Missoula wedding more than a private life update; it sits beside a recent family loss and a public remembrance that was already unusually direct.
Instagram Photos From Missoula
McComb’s posts make the next step obvious for readers who were following the family story: the marriage itself is the update, and the proof lives in the photographs she shared from the weekend. For anyone tracking the public thread between the two moments, the timeline is now fixed — a marriage in 2003, a divorce in 2010, a death on February 11, and a new wedding in Missoula three months later.
