Brian's cool with it.”

Fox and Green first met in 2004 on the set of the ABC sitcom Hope & Faith. They began dating soon after and tied the knot in 2010. The former couple share three children: Noah, 12, Bodhi, 10 and Journey, 8.

During their appearance on the “Whine Down with Jana Kramer” podcast, Green and Burgess opened up about their positive co-parenting dynamic with Fox.
"[Megan's] very much a part of our life, and we'll always be connected because of the kids. So we are all family. So there's no bad feelings there to be like that cannot be in this house," Burgess revealed.
Green chimed in, saying, "Megan is in our home. She'll come sometimes when she's dropping off or picking up the kids and she'll come in. And hang for a little bit."
He described their blended bond as “one big family,” highlighting that Fox is fond of their 16-month-old son.
