In her first post following Dave Hollis' death, Rachel Hollis wrote, "We are devastated. I have no words and my heart is too broken to find them." She added, "Please wrap the kids up in prayers as we try and navigate through the unthinkable." After the couple's 2020 divorce, she and Dave remained committed to their children and fostered a strong co-parenting relationship. Rachel appeared on "The Tamron Hall Show" (via Access Hollywood), calling it a "healthy choice." She noted that the family spent Thanksgiving and Christmas together that same year. "I don't know another family that does that so soon," she said.

In Thanksgiving 2021, Dave posted a family picture on Instagram, detailing the family's plans. "The holidays after divorce are wild. Navigating how to best create memorable and love-filled experiences for your kids," he shared. "[Rachel] was able to have a Tuesday night Thanksgiving in Austin before a Thursday lunch in Phoenix, giving this motley crew the blessing of two feasts."

Then, for Christmas 2022, Dave's post detailed the family's arrangements, saying that they traded off every other week during the year. However, instead of a shared holiday, the children spent two weeks with each parent to travel and visit relatives. "It's our third holiday in this new world, and I have to say, especially to anyone who's early in the process ... it gets better and easier over time. It really does," Hollis shared at the time.
