Lunch date!
Stepping out with his plaid-wearing parents, Milo William Langdon was all smiles after dining with mom Liv Tyler and dad Royston Langdon in Los Angeles, Calif. on Saturday.
Milo, 5, is the only child for the actress and her rocker ex, who married in 2003 and split five years later.
I think it’s awesome that they all still go out together! I’m a young mom with a 6 year old, and his father and I split when he was 4, but we’ve always been able to keep cool, and we still go out as a family (even though we’re both in relationships) time to time. It’s important for us to show our son that even though things couldn’t work out between us, it doesn’t change our relationship when it comes to our boy & we still want to spend time as family.

I’m so glad they can be civil together for Milo! This is so nice 
I love the name Milo!
- Ashley on
Way to set an awesome example for your child!
I wish my ex was capable of this.
- Jessicad on
Are they back together? Why else would they be coordinating clothes?
- HeatherR on
Isn’t that the best? I’m glad Liv and Royston are able to be civil for the sake of their son. What mature adults and fantastic parents.

love it! my son’s father and i broke up when i was pregnant, but we still spend time together as a family (our son is 7) we even go on holiday together – some people think it’s weird, but i’m glad we can make it work for our son
- amandamay on
I don’t think they are coordinating clothes.
Plaid/Flannel is very “in” right now.
My son’s father and I aren’t together, but we are great friends. We were only romantically involved once, but we have known each other since Jr. High, so I feel like I am raising my son with my best friend. The situation has worked out perfect for us.

Rylee, amandamay, and Rita, I am heartened by your stories. How I wish my parents could have managed the way you and this former couple have. Really, it can only benefit the child. On a side note, my brother has the same Adidas sneakers that Royston is wearing, as does my husband in a slightly louder (!) colorway.

i think it’s lovely there are so many ex-couples here who are able to work something out to make it easy for their kids. it’s how it should be and will make kids feel a lot better about relationships and about themselves. good on you guys!
- JM on
They all look happy. They must be doing something right.
- Chris on
Keeping the demise of their romantic relationship separate from the relationship they share as parents is wonderful. Milo will definitely benefit in the long run for having two, mature and loving parents.
I only wish my parents had done the same. Heck, 21 years have passed since they split up and they still can’t stand to be in the same room as one another. It’s a shame.
- Liliana on
Milo is a cutie.

Amandamay (#6) – Most people probably think it’s weird because it’s not something you see very much anymore. You see more divorces where each party drags the other through the mud and it’s hard to be friendly with each other after that.
I LOVE that they are able to do this. Another couple that is a great example of this is Virginia Madsen and Antonio Sabato Jr. We see Virginia out with Antonio’s daughter ALL the time. I’ve seen 1 phote of her and Jack where Mina wasn’t with them, and it seemed like she was missing!
- Sarah M. on
Milo is such a cute little boy. He always look happy. I adore Liv. She’s one of my favorite celebs.
- Jane on
Whoa, Milo is tall!
- Lauren on
Wonderful example! With all of these bitter divorces, it’s nice to see a couple who can actually get along for the sake of their child. And what a lucky little boy!
- Erika on
What a great concept! Just made my day, all these stories from you, CBB readers, that people can actually behave this cool for their kids. Love it and wish there were more people like this.
- merry on
That is just so lovely to see. Makes me sad for my best friends, whose situation is just about the opposite. Her husband left her for another woman when she was pregnant,was completely absent until the child was 3 – and then dragged her through courts to get a “co-parenting” arrangement. Ugh.
- martina on
What a great example this couple is. I only wish more people were as civil as them. Right now, there is an ongoing custody battle for my niece and nephew, and I keep telling my own parents that they need to get all the parties involved (grandparents, fathers and the mother) and together and work out a custody arrangement that will benefit the kids. Right now, they’re being shuffled around to mom, each set of grandparents and their fathers. Poor kids is all I can say about my niece and nephew.

Absolutely awesome.
My parents split up but they lived in the same house with us until we were grown.
When I moved out and my brother after me moved out that’s when my mom moved out and took my little brother with her.
He split his time between all of us which was cool. But they made the home a home even though they weren’t together (separate bedrooms).
Grocery shopping was always done, house cleaned, dinner made, and always a plate set aside for whichever parent was late from work and on Sundays, we had our family meetings or check ins as we call em……it wasn’t perfect but they made it work for our sake.
When you have kids, your priorities change. I wish all exes could get along like this and make growing up a pleasant and happy experience for their kids.
- Dee on
I’m so, so glad that there are other parents here like me and my ex! Everyone always tells us we’re weird because we spend weekends together with our son and he stays at my house because it’s too far for him to drive just to see our boy for a couple of hours. We’re not weird! Hurray!
- Gem on
me and my ex got divorced when our daughter was 4. she is now going to be 21. we have never spent anytime together since we got divorced and she turned out just fine!!! she went to his house every other weekend and spent time with him, her two half brothers and step mom, went their for special occassions, xmas eve, fathers day, and we switched off other holidays. it worked great for us. she went to school by our house with all her friends. i couldnt imagine spending time with my ex alone or with his family. would of been akward for our all of us and our spouces. but we were both always there for our daughter when she needed us. she had a small surgery two years ago and i was there along with him and his wife and everything was fine. we all get along, just never wanted to spend time together. thats why we got divorced. lol!!!!!!
