"And I say 'beyond belief' because some people are probably wondering if we're out of our minds. Which we might very well be..." James continued. "but I couldn't be more excited. Or grateful. Or in awe of @vanderkimberly."
His former Dawson's Creek co-star and onscreen love interest Katie Holmes commented, "Wow! Congratulations!"
