Amanda je zbog koronavirusa izgubila 41-godišnjeg supruga, glumca Nicka Cordera, koji je u bolnici zbog komplikacija uzrokovanih koronavirusom proveo punih 95 dana, a amputirana mu je i noga.

To all the over 208,000 Americans who lost loved ones to this virus - I stand by you, with you, holding your hand. Unfortunately it did dominate our lives didn’t it? It dominated Nick’s family’s lives and my family’s lives. I guess we "let it” - like it was our choice?? Unfortunately not everyone is lucky enough to spend two days in the hospital. I cried next to my husband for 95 days watching what COVID did to the person I love. It IS something to be afraid of. After you see the person you love the most die from this disease you would never say what this tweet says. There is no empathy to all the lives lost. He is bragging instead. It is sad. It is hurtful. It is disgraceful.

- Svim Amerikancima koji su izgubili najmilije zbog ovog virusa, kojih je više od 208.000 - stojim uz vas, s vama i držim vas za ruku. Nažalost, ovo jeste dominiralo našim životima, zar ne? Virus je dominirao životima Nickove porodice i životima moje porodice. Valjda smo mu to "dopustili" - kao da je to bio naš izbor?? Nažalost, nemaju svi tu sreću da samo dva dana provedu u bolnici. Plakala sam pored svog supruga 95 dana gledajući šta je COVID učinio osobi koju volim. Toga se treba bojati. Nakon što vidite da osoba koju najviše volite umire od ove bolesti, nikada ne biste rekli ono što stoji u ovom tvitu. Ovdje nema empatije za sve izgubljene živote. Umjesto toga on se hvali. Tužno. Štetno. Sramotno - napisala je Amanda u odgovoru uz Trumpov tvit koji je podijelila na Instagramu.

Elvis and I had a special afternoon today. My girlfriend from years on Broadway has an incredible pottery business in LA and she invited us to make pottery using some of Nicks ashes. I have recently learned how many ways you can repurpose ashes and make new things with them. I think it is beyond beautiful, a way to keep him living! ⠀ She had never incorporated ashes to her work before (and doesn’t intend to do more) but because we are friends she wanted to try, to create a piece that Elvis and I could help with and have forever. I had never made pottery so I was really looking forward to learning the process. ⠀ Once she mixed the ashes with the clay, threw and spun our piece, Elvis and I got our hands wet and put our hands into the clay to make our imprints on the piece. It will be a vase! This was so incredible and really felt special. A way to turn something sad into something joyful. ⠀ She now will let it dry and then puts it in the kiln to bake before we glaze it! The process is not over so there will be more to come. I just wanted to share this because I think it’s so beautiful what you can do with ashes to keep someone you love alive. ⠀ Again, this was a one off experiment for her but her pottery is gorgeous so if you are interested in that check her out! @rarebirdgoods ⠀ Thank you so much Emily! ️
