Suzanne Somers’ husband can still feel the star’s presence in the home they shared nearly a year after her death.

The actress, who famously starred as bubbly blonde Chrissy Snow in "Three’s Company," died on Oct. 15, 2023, at age 76. Somers battled breast cancer for over 23 years.

Alan Hamel, Somers’ widower, told Fox News Digital that he’s had "unusual" experiences since her passing and that they have comforted him.

"One day I’m in the kitchen with my family, and all of a sudden, Suzanne’s favorite song comes on the audio system; the audio system wasn’t even turned on," said the 88-year-old. "It’s a Latin song, and it’s written and performed by someone no one’s ever heard of. It’s a song we used to dance to in the kitchen. It just came on all by itself. And then, when it was over, that was it. The audio system stayed off."

"Later that day, the fireplace started by itself," he shared. "It stayed on for an hour and then it turned off. Then one day, a hummingbird flew into our house. It goes to our little breakfast nook where there’s a photograph of Suzanne and me where we’re looking at each other. The hummingbird hovers in between our two faces. Then it flies up and sits on top of the photo.

"A few weeks later, I opened all the doors and windows and I saw the same hummingbird – they all have very distinctive colorings… I walked over and extended my hands. The hummingbird jumps into my hands, and she tucks in her little feet. All I felt was her belly. She felt safe."

Some days are harder than others, Hamel admitted. He noted this is the first time he’s living alone since he was 18 years old.

"When I go to bed at night, during that time when you’re not asleep yet, that’s when I really feel Suzanne’s presence to the point where it’s palpable," said Hamel. "I remember one night I was so positive she was in bed with me. I reached over just to check, and of course, she wasn’t there."

The unusual experiences, he said, have made him believe that "there is an afterlife."

"We discard the body, but we still have a soul," he said. "The soul is energy. And I have to believe that it finds a dimension or a plane that we don’t understand… I absolutely believe there is an afterlife. I do believe that when my time comes to expire, Suzanne will be waiting for me."

"When we knew the end was near, we had those conversations that you have to have. And we did talk about the afterlife… We were both very spiritual and we both believed there was a higher power… When you look at the complex insides of a human being, all those glands and arteries, how the human body operates – that didn’t come about by accident. There was an element of design. And I believe there’s another dimension we don’t understand yet. Maybe some people might think I’m wacky, but I choose to believe."

"When Suzanne and I were having our final conversation, she said to me, ‘I want you to promise to keep developing new organic products for my ladies,’" he explained. "She always referred to [her fans] as ‘my ladies.’ We started our business the day she was fired from ‘Three’s Company.’ Back then, nobody knew what branding was. But Suzanne and I did it together. We looked for products that we would use ourselves and would help others. And the business we created together is just as vibrant today."

"She would hang out with her ladies during lectures and cooking demos," he continued. "She became one of them. She always said to me, ‘I know who my ladies are because they’re me.’ She was very concerned about them. It was her goal to keep our business in health and beauty going. It’s a legacy business. And even though Suzanne passed, her business, her ideas, they all continue.

"We still do shows [on social media]. My daughter-in-law is the president of the company. My three granddaughters are involved. We keep designing new products, and we have a lot of products in development. The business carries on for Suzanne’s ladies. And knowing that the family is involved with the business makes me feel good. It certainly made Suzanne feel good."
