Holker also addressed public opinion on how she portrays her grief.

"I am such a public figure that people have a lot of opinions in how I should be handling myself, how I should be handling the grief and what they expect to see, what they expect me to say, what they expect to hear from me," she said.

"I've always been a person that I have to do things my way in my own pacing in my own time and that's going to come sometimes with a lot of emotion for other people," she added. "And I think I've just had to challenge myself to stay my own course because I have to go through this at my time to be the best version of myself and the best version of my kids. And then I can come forward and use my voice and help as many people as I can."
