Antonio Banderas delighted fans after appearing on his Instagram to share an adorable family photo alongside his ex-wife, actress Melanie Griffith.
In the snapshot, Banderas is seen on the couch next to the couple’s daughter, Stella, Griffith, and Stella’s husband, Alex. Even 11 years after their divorce, it seems the former couple has remained close in a beautiful friendship.
“Yesterday in Los Angeles, I had a lovely and fun moment with my son-in-law Alex, my daughter Stella, and my ex-wife and longtime friend, Melanie,” wrote the Paddington in Peru actor in the caption.
Banderas and Griffith married in 1996 after co-starring in the romantic comedy Two Much (1995). They welcomed Stella on September 24, 1996. In 2014, Griffith filed for divorce.
Despite the separation, the two remained close. “Even though we are divorced, she is my family and I will love her until the day I die,” he told PEOPLE magazine in April 2018.
“We have stayed in touch all these years and managed to have a very elegant separation. Our children are enjoying that, and that is very important to both of us. Our children are the number one priority.”
Stella is Banderas’ only child, but Griffith has three other children: Alexander Bauer, 40, from her marriage to ex-husband Steven Bauer, and two children she had with ex-husband Don Johnson. Their daughter, Dakota, is 36, while Jesse, 43, is from Johnson’s relationship with Patti D’Arbanville, but is also considered Griffith’s son.
