Melanie Griffith and Antonio Banderas' daughter Stella has revealed that her parents are still very close to each other by sharing a sweet photo of the pair on social media. The couple, who finalised their divorce last year after an 18-year marriage, were snapped lounging on a sofa while spending some time together as a family.

In the snap, which Stella simply captioned "Fam," Antonio seems to be showing Melanie something on his phone, which she leans over to look at. The pair looked very comfortable in each other's company, and fans of the stars have been quick to praise their friendship post divorce. One wrote: "This a lesson for everybody!" while another wrote: "An awesome family."
