While appearing as a speaker at End Well’s annual symposium in November, Kloots shared with Yvette Nicole Brown that Elvis has begun to ask more questions about his father, Nick Cordero's death.

Kloots and Cordero married in 2017 and welcomed Elvis in 2019 before his death in July 2020 from COVID-related complications.

"My son is 4 years old now, and he's sort of trying to now understand what happened to his dad and that he doesn't have a dad," she explained. "For some reason, he always brings it up on the way to preschool, and I drop him off and have to go right to work."

The television personality said that dealing with him bringing up what happened to his dad is "so hard some days because some days you just shut down, and you don't want to talk about it, or you just like shut down and you don't want it to enter your world."

In April, Kloots explained to PEOPLE why she's "always trying to incorporate" her late husband into her son's life "because he left this earth and Elvis was 1." Kloots added that Elvis "does not have memories of his dad."

The Tell Me Your Dreams author went on to explain that there are times when Elvis has "gotten sad" when they talk about his father and he mentions that Cordero died.

"And then he'll get very, very sad, which is heartbreaking as a parent, obviously. Because in a way, I haven't had yet to deal too much with Elvis' grief," Kloots explained.

"It's coming, and that'll be a whole new layer for me and my grief and helping him get through that and understanding that," she continued. "So that's coming up for me. I know it's not probably too long away."
