James Van Der Beek<\/a>\u2019s wife, Kimberly, has said that her husband is \u201cbouncing back\u201d amid his ongoing battle with colorectal cancer.<\/a><\/p>\n

On Monday (November 24), Van Der Beek took to his Instagram page<\/a> to share a video announcing he would be selling replicas of the football jersey he wore in the 1999 movie Varsity Blues<\/a>. In the caption, the Dawson\u2019s Creek<\/a> alum confirmed proceeds will \u201cgo directly toward helping with treatment and supporting families walking the same path.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThank you \u2014 for the love, the prayers, the support, and for making this jersey mean something far bigger than a movie,\u201d he added. \u201cEndlessly grateful for all of you.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kimberly jumped into the comments to cheer on her man and provide a small update on how he\u2019s doing. \u201cYou\u2019re a wizard. Bouncing back, baby!!<\/p>\n

The Pose<\/a> actor revealed his colorectal cancer diagnosis back in November 2024. At the time, he told\u00a0People<\/a>, \u201cI\u2019ve been privately dealing with this diagnosis and have been taking steps to resolve it, with the support of my incredible family.\u201d<\/p>\n

Fans also noted how much healthier Van Der Beek looked in his latest video, with one Instagram commenter writing, \u201cYou look amazing! God bless you!\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cLooking Good James. And the jersey is fun,\u201d said another.<\/p>\n

The Varsity Blues auction comes just weeks after Van Der Beek announced he\u2019d be selling off Dawson\u2019s Creek memorabilia<\/a> to help pay for his cancer treatment.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve been storing these treasures for years, waiting for the right time to do something with them, and with all of the recent unexpected twists and turns life has presented recently, it\u2019s clear that the time is now,\u201d he told People<\/a>. \u201cWhile I have some nostalgia tugging at me as I part with these items, it feels good to be able to offer them through Propstore\u2019s auction to share with those who have supported my work over the years.\u201d<\/p>\n
