She’s company.
Once a skeptic, Suzanne Somers’ widower, Alan Hamel, says he is now a believer in “an afterlife” because of a series of “strange” instances following the “Three’s Company” star’s death.
Hamel, 87, told Page Six about three occurrences in the same day that made him feel that Somers, who died while holding Hamel’s hand on Oct. 15 at age 76 after a battle with breast cancer, is still with him in spirit.
First, “a hummingbird flew into our house and made the rounds in the kitchen, and the living room and the dining room,” Hamel explained. He added that the bird then “hovered” in front of a framed photo of the lovers before it “landed on top and stayed there.”
Even better, Hamel managed to get a picture of it.
Then, Hamel claimed, the fireplace started “all by itself” and music by Somers’ favorite composer started playing out of nowhere.
“No one’s ever heard of this guy,” he said of the obscure artist.
Finally, when Hamel was about to fall asleep for the night, he could “feel her laying beside me,” he said.
Somers and Hamel were married for nearly 50 years — and the ThighMaster spokeswoman was never shy about gushing about their active sex life.
But now that she’s gone, Hamel confessed to Page Six, “I’m a believer now that there is an after life. I’m convinced of it… I think there’s something we don’t understand. I think there’s a plane somewhere… after we discard our bodies. We still have our soul. I think our soul is energy. The soul must go somewhere and do something.”
He also says he’s not the only family member to experience this since Somers’ passing.
“The time when I’m with my family… and I have one of my moments when I have to leave, I go into the bedroom… I’m alone there. And I feel her presence. Once I interact with her presence, I go back and interact with the family,” he said.
“Her grandkids, one by one, have told me the same thing.
“I hope it’s all true,” Hamel admitted. “It certainly makes the grieving process a lot easier,” and, “If it is, we’ll be reunited.”
What’s more, Hamel told the outlet that he and Somers laughed about the possibility of them coming back in the afterlife to visit the living one.
“We joked about it. Before she was sick. Before the last chapter,” Hamel remembered. “We joked about when one of us passed, it would likely be me because I’m 10 years older.”
He recalled Somers telling him, “Knowing you, you’ll be on your way back before you’ve left.”
Somers was laid to rest on Nov. 30, during a celebration of life memorial in Palm Springs, Calif.
