Charlie Sheen has polished up his relationship with ex wife Denise Richards. 

After a rocky period following their 2006 divorce, the Two and a Half Men star shared what his dynamic with the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum is like today.

"We're absolutely friendly," Charlie told People in an article published on Dec. 13. "We went through so much s--t together that I don't think either one of us has any energy left to be divisive."

The Platoon star—who also recently revealed he's nearly six years sober—also expressed that the former couple is dedicated to maintaining friendly terms for the sake of their daughters Sami, 19, and Lola, 18. 

"The only thing that matters is the kids," he added. "We knew we had to park our nonsense and focus on the children, because they had nothing to do with any of our crud."

And with their co-parenting relationship at the forefront, Charlie and Denise are more amicable than ever.

"Even in the hottest portions of depths of the inferno, we were still able to maintain a perspective that yes, the children need to come first," he continued. "Now we're super friendly, and we're actually able to process so much of it through humor these days."

In fact, Charlie—who is also a father to Cassandra Estevez, 39, with ex Paula Profit and twin sons Bob and Max, 14 with ex-wife Brooke Mueller—also noted that looking back, his and Denise's feud seems trivial now.

As he put it: "You get a little distance, and it's like, 'Really? We were so upset about that?'"

Denise and Charlie have been seeing eye-to-eye more lately. The couple publicly buried the hatchet after a disagreement last year over their daughter Sami's OnlyFans account. 

After the Spin City star shared in June 2022 that he "did not condone" Sami's decision to join the content platform, Denise clapped back in her own statement, telling E! News 

"All I can do as a parent is guide her and trust her judgment, but she makes her own choices." 

Pointing to her own risqué ventures such as posing for Playboy, the Wild Things star, who later joined OnlyFans herself, noted on Instagram at the time that she couldn't "be judgmental," adding that "quite frankly her father shouldn't be either."

And it seems Denise's posts resonated with his ex as he subsequently shared in a statement that his wife "illuminated a variety of salient point that in my haste, I overlooked and dismissed."

He added, "Now more than ever, it's essential that Sami have a united parental front to rely upon, as she embarks on this new adventure. From this moment forward, she'll have it abundantly."  

Charlie and Denise aren't the only Hollywood divorcees who've let bygones be bygones. Read on for more friendly exes. 

No, they are never, ever, ever getting back together. But at this point—between the birthday parties, the friendly embraces and even freaking acting out a sexual fantasy in a star-studded virtual reading of Fast Times at Ridgemont High—it feels like the former Hollywood golden couple is just taunting us. 

You know you're cool when you can pop into your ex's talk show and give him a hard time. Such was the case when Silverman turned up on Kimmel's stage to chat about her new show, I Love You, America and his "cute," "bright," "funny" wife Molly Kimmel. "It's not fair!" she cracked. "She gets, like, new woke Jimmy. I had Man Show Jimmy."

 

TBH, we might still be mourning this relationship harder than either of its participants. Because when Faris—now engaged to cinematographer Michael Barrett—heard that Pratt was set to wed Katherine Schwarzenegger in 2019, she offered to officiate. She even sent over a gift after the newlyweds welcomed daughter Lyla in August 2020. Thrilled for son Jack to become a big brother, a source told E! News, Faris "is very supportive." 

It would have been super easy for the exes' relationship to become a flop. But more than four years after a messy split, the HGTV stars are still killing it at two projects: parenting kids Taylor and Brayden and turning run-down properties into someone else's dream home.

Literally "best friends" as the rocker put it in a 2013 interview with Oprah Winfrey, the parents to actress Zoe Kravitz still consider themselves kin. "We're one big happy family," Kravitz said of his ex, now wed to Jason Momoa. "It's beautiful, and it just shows you what can be done."

Since their 2015 breakup, the parents to Violet, Seraphina, and Samuel have hit the conscious uncoupling trifecta: Joint vacations, shared holidays and public displays of admiration with Affleck dubbing his ex "an amazing mother" during a 2016 interview with E! News. 

Nina and Ian may have called it quits in 2013 after three years of dating, but they've remained close friends since then. In 2014, the Vampire Diaries star started dating Nikki Reed and tied the knot later that year. Naturally, Dobrev befriended the Twilight actress.

The two called it quits in July 2016 after five years together. The singer said on SiriusXM's The Howard Stern Show the following October that she's "very close" to Kinney, adding, "He's been my lover and a friend for so long," she said. "We love each other. That's it."

The exes had no trouble coparenting their son, Bronx, after finalizing their divorce back in 2011. The Fall Out Boy star has even said his former wife is "an awesome mom."

So she's over those "7 Things" then? The JoBro musician has said he's "really friendly" with his ex. "We've got a good relationship."

The Dexter costars finalized their divorce in December 2011, but they had no trouble working amicably onscreen.

Long the gold standard of copacetic exes, the parents to daughters Rumer, Tallulah and Scout remain so tight that the decision to ride out coronavirus stay-at-home orders together in Idaho was a no-brainer. Quarantine dance party anyone?

Some four years after their 2014 divorce, Lopez was still giving her former spouse, dad to her twins Max and Emme, props. "While I was married to Marc, he really helped me with my confidence and he saw where I suffered," she said on a 2018 episode of Sunday Today. "He was like, 'You're a great singer. Don't ever let anybody tell you you're not a great singer.' And I respected him so much 'cause I consider him one of the best singers of all time."

Even if it hasn't been his day, his week, his month or even his year, the actress will be there for her former husband and Scream costar. "I mean, as divorces go, I would say it's one of the better ones. For sure," she shared on Running Wild With Bear Grylls eight years after their 2010 split. Raising daughter Coco, she continued, "We're good co-parents together."

Their real life romance may have fizzled in 2007. However, that doesn't mean the two couldn't heat up the screen in the 2011 movie Bad Teacher.

Sure, the initial few months of their 2013 split were rough going, but the actors have now reached the group vacation stage of their divorce. "I really like her husband and I think he's a great guy," the Twilight alum told LaPalme Magazine of a 2017 trip to Cancun that included Garth, Dave Abrams, Facinelli's now-fiancée Lily Anne Harrison and their three daughters Luca, Lola and Fiona. As for his relationship with Garth, he continued, "People come into your life for a reason and relationships can change," he told LaPalme. "Just because we aren't living together doesn't mean you can't love each other."

Despite a surprise separation in September 2012, the couple decided to put on a united front for their children. "As you know, Will and I are very, very good friends," she explained during a 2014 interview with Howard Stern. "We are doing a really good job. I don't think a 10-year marriage constitutes a failure. I think relationships are really tough."
