Inside Colin Firth’s Unbelievably Friendly Relationship With His Ex-Wife After Her Affair

It’s all love, actually, between Colin Firth and ex-wife Livia Guiggioli Firth.

In fact, Livia, who confessed to having an affair and parted ways with the actor from Bridget Jones in 2019, has now shared insights into their present situation, including how Colin has developed a rapport with her new partner, Callum Grieve.

In an interview with HELLO! magazine, published on May 5th, Livia shared that Colin and Callum are not only friends but also passionate Arsenal fans. She added that their love for Arsenal is a significant aspect in their family dynamics.

As a devoted individual, I find myself remarking on an unusual yet undeniable fact – my ex-spouse, with whom I parted ways in the year 2021, and I continue to share a unique bond that could be described as being ‘inseparable’.

As an over-the-moon fan, let me tell you, Colin and I share an extraordinary bond. We’ve put in countless efforts to strengthen it, especially in maintaining the harmony within our family unit. You see, we each have our significant others, but we’re inseparable, forming an extended, madcap family of ours.

Livia, who returned to her birthplace in Italy following the divorce from Colin, made her remarks over five years later, long after it was disclosed that she and the actor from Love Actually, with whom she has sons Luca, aged 24, and Matteo, aged 21, had ended their 22-year marriage.

2019 saw their announcement of a split, over a year following when Livia acknowledged her past relationship with Marco Brancaccia, who was accused of being a stalker. However, during this time, Livia and Colin were briefly apart. Marco later claimed that Livia had fabricated the stalking accusations to hide an affair they had from 2015 to 2016.

He shared with The Times during a March 2018 interview that she had been romantically connected to someone named Colin, but desired to be with him instead. He admitted to sending only two messages through WhatsApp after their breakup in June 2016, and a single email as well, which he described as his “stalking” behavior.

He mentioned, “I composed an email to Colin concerning my relationship with Livia, which I now wish I hadn’t sent. She subsequently lodged a complaint against me, alleging stalking, due to her concern that I might disclose what she had confided in me about her marriage and work.

Back in July 2018, attorneys representing the Firths and Marco disclosed that both sides had reached a confidential agreement in their case. They further stated, “Consequently, no party involved will make any additional public comments regarding this issue from now on.

It’s not just Colin and Livia who have managed to maintain a cordial relationship post-breakup; other famous couples have also kept things amicable. Keep reading for more examples.

In a March 2018 interview with The Times, he confessed that we had been romantically linked, and she was considering leaving her relationship with Colin for me. However, his ‘pursuit’ was limited to sending two messages via WhatsApp after our breakup in June 2016, and a single email.

They will not reunite under any circumstances; it seems like they’re merely teasing us with their recent interactions, such as birthday celebrations, warm greetings, and even performing a sexual fantasy together in a star-studded reading of “Fast Times at Ridgemont High.

You’re considered stylish when you can drop by your former partner’s talk show and tease him a bit. This happened when Sarah showed up on Jimmy’s stage for a conversation about her latest program, “I Love You, America,” and his “charming,” “intelligent,” “humorous” spouse Molly Kimmel. She joked, “It’s not fair! She gets the new ‘woke’ Jimmy. I had the ‘Man Show’ Jimmy.

 

To put it plainly, I can’t help but feel that the dissolution of Pratt and my friendship is still weighing heavily on me. You see, when I learned that he was getting married to cinematographer Michael Barrett in 2019, I extended an offer to officiate their wedding. Even after they welcomed their daughter Lyla in August 2020, I sent a thoughtful gift to celebrate the new addition to their family.

In fact, my son Jack was overjoyed at the prospect of becoming a big brother, and I was extremely supportive of this new phase in Pratt’s life as reported by TopMob News. Looking back, it feels like a part of me went with him on that special day, but I continue to wish him all happiness and success in his married life.

Despite their rocky breakup, the ex-HGTV stars have managed to thrive in their individual endeavors over four years later. They continue to excel in two key areas: raising their children Taylor and Brayden, and transforming rundown properties into cherished dream homes for others.

In a 2013 interview with Oprah Winfrey, the rocker referred to his ex-partner as his “best friends”. Despite their divorce, they continue to view each other as family, with Lenny describing them as one big, happy unit. He finds it beautiful and inspiring that even after their 2020 separation, they have managed to maintain such a strong bond.

Ever since their split in 2015, I’ve been utterly captivated by the extraordinary journey of these remarkable individuals – the parents of Violet, Seraphina, and Samuel. They’ve truly mastered the art of conscious uncoupling, tripling down on shared experiences like joint getaways, festive celebrations together, and public expressions of mutual respect. In a 2016 interview with TopMob News, Ben even went as far as to praise his ex as an “amazing mother.” This level of maturity and love just leaves me in absolute awe!

Nina and Ian ended their relationship in 2013 after three years together, but they’ve continued to maintain a strong friendship since then. In 2014, the actor from “The Vampire Diaries” began dating Nikki Reed and got married that same year. As you might expect, Nina developed a close friendship with the actress from “Twilight.

In July 2016, they decided to end their five-year relationship. The singer shared on SiriusXM’s The Howard Stern Show in October of the same year that she is quite close to Kinney, stating, “He’s been both my lover and friend for so long.

“We love each other,” she said. “That’s it.”

The intriguing dynamic between characters from ‘The Office’ persisted, keeping fans hopeful even after the show ended in 2013, and Mindy understands why they continue to ship them together. In an interview with Good Housekeeping in 2019, she admitted, “If I were observing their relationship from the outside, I would share the same sentiment. However, B.J. has become so much more like family now than just a platonic friend.

After their divorce in 2011, the ex-spouses found no difficulty in co-parenting their son, Bronx. In fact, the musician from Fall Out Boy has praised his former wife, acknowledging her as an exceptional mother.

It seems like she’s moved past the seven points of interest, right? The Jonas Brother artist mentioned that they have a great rapport and are quite friendly with each other now.

In 2006, the stars of the show Dexter initially crossed paths on set. However, it wasn’t until 2008 that their relationship turned romantic. Regrettably, they divorced in 2011. Yet, Jennifer clarified years later that there was nothing but affection and respect lingering between the former couple.

For years, these three daughters – Rumer, Tallulah, and Scout – have maintained a close bond with their parents, earning them a reputation as harmonious exes. So tight-knit are they that the choice to shelter in place together during the coronavirus pandemic in Idaho seemed like an obvious one. Why not host a quarantine dance party?

Four years after their 2014 divorce, Lopez continued to acknowledge her ex-husband, the father of her twins Max and Emme, for his support. “During my marriage with Marc, he played a significant role in boosting my confidence,” she shared on a 2018 episode of Sunday Today. “He saw where I struggled and said, ‘You’re an exceptional singer; never let anyone make you doubt that.’ His words carried so much weight because I greatly admire him as one of the greatest singers of all time.

Despite the ups and downs they’ve experienced in different timeframes – days, weeks, months, even an entire year – this actress has always been there for her ex-husband and Scream costar. In fact, she described their divorce as one of the better ones, stating this on Running Wild With Bear Grylls eight years after their 2010 separation. Sharing a positive parenting relationship, they have successfully co-parented their daughter Coco.

In 2007, their off-screen relationship might have cooled down. Yet, this does not prevent them from creating a spark on the big screen when they starred together in the 2011 film “Bad Teacher”.

After experiencing some challenging times following their separation in 2013, the actors have now reached a stage where they are taking group vacations during their divorce process. In an interview with LaPalme Magazine, the former Twilight star expressed his admiration for his ex-wife’s husband, whom he finds to be an outstanding individual. He fondly recalled a 2017 trip to Cancun that was shared with Garth, Dave Abrams, Peter’s current fiancée Lily Anne Harrison, and their three daughters Luca, Lola, and Fiona. Speaking about his relationship with Jennie, he noted, “People enter your life for a purpose, and relationships can evolve. Just because we no longer live together doesn’t mean you can’t continue to cherish each other.

Even though they separated unexpectedly in September 2012, the pair chose to present a united facade for their kids. In a 2014 interview with Howard Stern, she stated, “As you’re aware, Will and I have an incredibly strong friendship. We are managing exceptionally well. I don’t believe that a 10-year marriage signifies failure. I think relationships can be quite challenging.
