Jessica Klepser is speaking out after the death of her ex-husband Christian Oliver and their daughters Madita and Annik.

Oliver and their daughters were killed in a plane crash in the Caribbean on Thursday. They were traveling from the J.F. Mitchell Airport in Paget Farm to St. Lucia, according to a statement from the Royal St. Vincent and the Grenadines Police Force. Authorities said that the pilot — who was also killed in the crash — was operating a small single-engine aircraft that "experienced difficulties and plummeted into the ocean" moments after take off.

Klepser said that the "outpouring of love" that she's received since the tragedy has been "beyond words" in a touching Instagram post on Monday.

"From those closest to my heart, from my community, from people far away, from complete strangers... I see the messages, I hear the words and it gives me so much strength," her statement read. "I also deeply feel Madita's, Annik's and Christian's love! They are here with me for every step and they are watching us." Klepser encouraged her followers to "keep spreading love."

"Hug your loved ones, tell them you love them, be kind to each other," her statement continued. "And stop arguing and worrying about the small stuff. It's not worth it. Life is too precious and we are all in this together."

Amy Jordan, owner of Wundabar Pilates — a company in which Klepser is the regional manager of its California branch — shared on the company's Instagram account on Friday that it has been an "extremely difficult time" for Klepser.

"I am blessed to have had Madita and Annik in our lives for many years, and cherish the memories of pool parties, sleepovers, school performances, and Disneyland trips to hold in my heart," her statement read.

Annik was remembered as "a 4th-grade student at Wonderland Ave Elementary School" who had a "gentle yet strong demeanor" and passion for "basketball, swimming, and various forms of art."
