Amanda Kloots has insisted she wasn't a "good wife" to her late husband Nick Cordero.

The Talk star - whose spouse died last summer following severe complications from COVID-19 - told the New York Times, initially she wasn't "supportive" of the Broadway star's desire to move away from acting into music and was reluctant to agree to his request to move from New York to Los Angeles for the sake of his career.

"I was not a good wife... I was not understanding of any of it," she said. "I was like, 'This is a waste of time, and we have no money.' He did not feel supported by me. I wasn't supportive."

The couple - who married in 2017 and welcomed son Elvis Eduardo into the world two years later - fought over the situation but eventually came to an understanding and relocated in 2019.

"I finally came to a place of, 'This is marriage, you have to compromise,'" she added.

Now, Amanda - who shared his music on Instagram as he was fighting for his life - wants to honor his legacy.

"I learned to appreciate his music too late... But I'm determined to keep his voice alive," Amanda explained.
