She was asked about her co-parenting relationship with Aaron, 46, and how he's handling being a new father figure for her daughtersSam, Lola and Eloise.
"He and I are definitely great partners with the kids and we’re definitely on the same page, which makes it so much easier. We have a strong family unit, we’re very secure and I’m so happy that Eloise has such a wonderful dad and my girls have a great stepdad."

Denise revealed earlier this year that Aaron has plans to adopt Eloise, 8, who she adopted herself in June 2011. She shares her other two daughters with ex-husband Charlie Sheen.
The Wild Things star also spoke on how her girls reacted to him once he became a special part of her life.
"They saw how — right away — how he treated me and how he was with them and I think they felt comfortable with him right away," she said. "It was definitely an adjustment because the girls had always had — I didn’t share my dating life with them, I was very private about it, so it was an adjustment, but it was a good adjustment."
All of Denise's daughters were part of her Malibu wedding ceremony to Aaron on September 8, 2018. Their nuptials were included in her debut RHOBH season this year.
