In June, Holker spoke with People and shared that she was optimistic about her ability to love and live life again. "I still would want to have love, would still want to travel the world. I still want to see and experience new things with new people, new energy, my friends, my family, a loved one — a potential — and my kids," Holker told the outlet.
