Fergie and Josh Duhamel may have separated romantically, but their priorities remain the same.
Duhamel recently opened up about their co-parenting style in an interview with E! News, revealing that he still has a "great relationship" with his ex. He also praised the "Fergalicious" singer, calling her a "great mother."
"It's going really well," Duhamel said. "All we want is the best for our son, so it's a bit of a juggling act but we're both grown ups who can handle a lot. And he's happy. That's the main thing."
The former couple shares a 4-year-old son, Axl. They were together for 13 years before announcing their split in September.
Fergie echoed Duhamel's sentiments in multiple post-breakup interviews. In September, she revealed to Entertainment Tonight that although the two are "not a romantic couple anymore," they still prioritize their son and family dynamic.
"We are still Axl's parents through and through, and our families — each other's families, the cousins, my nieces and nephews — it's all the same," she said. "Our families are families together and that cannot change."
Duhamel has also spoken openly about Fergie's parenting prowess before. The "Unsolved" star discussed their "questionable parenting decisions" on Ellen DeGeneres' talk show back in June.
"I have no idea what I'm doing half the time. She's definitely more evolved than I am and more patient," he told DeGeneres. "I'm just doing the best I can and trying not to screw him up for life."
Co-parenting is a difficult but noble task for many couples. We applaud Duhamel and Fergie for their honesty and commitment to Axl's happiness.
