Kelly, 57, bravely carried on smiling and working after her diagnosis, two years before she passed away on Sunday morning.
And the family continued to share heart-warming pictures and videos, keeping their hidden pain and Kelly's illness private.
In February, John shared a snap of him and his wife grinning on board a jet, captioning the post: "one of our favorite past times flying."
And in April, he posted a cute video of him and Kelly with their children Ella Bleu and Benjamin, wishing fans a happy Easter.
Kelly also shared candid family snapshots, paying tribute to John on Father's Day last month with a pic of the family, calling her husband: "The best one I know," and adding "we love you."
She had even managed to continue acting, looking healthy on set in Mallorca in February 2019, accompanied at all times by her daughter.

Grieving husband John revealed on Sunday evening that his wife had passed away that morning.
The actor paid tribute to his wife's "courageous fight" as he revealed that she had battled the disease for two years, after they chose to keep her illness private.
He shared a photo of Kelly and told his fans: “It is with a very heavy heart that I inform you that my beautiful wife Kelly has lost her two-year battle with breast cancer.
"She fought a courageous fight with the love and support of so many."
He added: "Kelly's love and life will always be remembered.
"I will be taking some time to be there for my children who have lost their mother, so forgive me in advance if you don't hear from us for a while.
"But please know that I will feel your outpouring of love in the weeks and months ahead as we heal."
Kelly is survived by her husband, and their children: daughter Ella, 20, and 9-year-old son Benjamin.
Tragically, eldest son Jett died at age 16 in January 2009 after a seizure at the family's Bahamas holiday home.
