Celebrities React to Nick Cordero's Death From Coronavirus Complications
Celebrities are reacting to the heartbreaking news of Nick Cordero‘s death.
The 41-year-old Broadway actor’s wife Amanda Kloots announced on Sunday (July 5) that he had sadly passed from complications after his battle with COVID-19.
“God has another angel in heaven now. My darling husband passed away this morning. He was surrounded in love by his family, singing and praying as he gently left this earth,” Amanda wrote on Instagram. “I am in disbelief and hurting everywhere. My heart is broken as I cannot imagine our lives without him.”
After news broke, Broadway stars, singers, actors, and more all took to Twitter to mourn Nick‘s death and to send love to Amanda and their 1-year-old son Elvis during this difficult time.
“Nick Cordero passed at 11:40am today with his wife and mother by his side,” Nick‘s longtime friend Zach Braff wrote on Instagram. “I have honestly never known a kinder person. But Covid doesn’t care about the purity of your soul, or the goodness in your heart. The last thing he ever texted me was to look out for his wife and one year old son, Elvis. I promise the world they will never want for anything. I feel so incredibly grateful I got to have Nick Cordero enter my life. Rest In Peace. Rest in Power.”

So unbelievably sorry for Nick & his family. Please let this unimaginable horror be a lesson to all of us. Doesn't matter your age or fitness or even what 1 or 2 tests tell you – COVID doesn't give a damn. Wear a mask, stay home, protect each other. This is just getting worse. https://t.co/Z0VzW3HZdD

I didn’t know Nick Cordero personally but I’d been following his journey since he was hospitalized with covid 95 days ago. He fought so hard and today he lost his battle. What a tragic loss for his wife and baby.

Words can’t express the heartbreak clearly enough. He was one of the best. Everyone who knew him felt this way. This is such a profound loss. Rest In Peace, friend. We will miss you terribly. #NickCordero

Incredibly sad news. Can we please do what we need to do as a country to fight this virus together? It doesn’t care how healthy you are. It doesn’t care if you want to go to Fire Island. It doesn’t care if you are tired of wearing a mask. Reign. It. In. https://t.co/sae9sLQYv1

I was in a show with Nick in Toronto around 2004ish. He was amazing. So talented, charismatic, a star.
He died from Covid today. He was 41. No health issues. Over the past 95 days in hospital, COVID attacked his body and destroyed it slowly piece by piece.
Wear a fucking mask https://t.co/gDmP9PEGSX

Rest In Peace, @iamNickCordero . I've never met you, but have heard of you from the many mutual friends we have. You are a titan in their eyes, and you've definitely left a mark on Broadway. My condolences to your wife Amanda, your son Elvis, and all your family and friends.

Anyone who has ever met Nick knows the genuine soul he was, and that soul lives on in our hearts. I am so privileged to have met him— to have received his advice. We were all so lucky to live on this planet with him. Until we meet again, Nick. 🤍 Love to Amanda and Elvis.
