Wersching shared three sons; Freddie, Ozzie, and Archie with her husband of nearly 14 years, Santa Clarita Diet actor Stephen Full.
In a moving statement following his wife’s death, Full, 53, wrote: “There is a cavernous hole in the soul of this family today. But she left us the tools to fill it. She found wonder in the simplest moment. She didn’t require music to dance. She taught us not to wait for the adventure to find us. ‘Go find it. It’s everywhere.’ And find it we shall.”

A fundraiser has been set up in Wersching’s memory by her friend, and former Runaways co-star, Ever Carradine, under the tag of “family fundraiser.”
The description for the GoFundMe, which at the time of writing had raised over $131,000, states that Wersching had been diagnosed with cancer in the summer of 2020 but did not share the news publicly.
“She’s a private person by nature, and the diagnosis made her even more so. She wanted to protect her boys. She wanted to get better so she could continue working. And honestly, she just didn’t really want to talk about it. She wanted to live her life, on her terms, and be with her family,” the description reads.
Carradine adds that the money will be used to allow Wesrching’s husband to “have time to grieve without the pressure of needing to work,” and so he can be there for his sons “as they navigate the future without their mom, without sweet Annie.”
