Ant says he feels lucky that co-parenting with Christina has been easy
Christina has two children with her first ex-husband, Tarek El Moussa, and Ant has a son and daughter in the UK with his ex-wife. Following his split from Christina, Ant told People magazine: "It really hit me hard. The impact on me, my sleep, my diet, my stress, it showed."
But now, he admits he's really turned a corner and revealed: "It certainly has taken some time, but I finally feel like I’m in a really good place. I’ve really used this season in my life to reset every little detail.
"I realise how lucky I am and how little I need. So many people lose sight of what’s real and important, and in my world the most valuable elements were fully presented to me.

"I am a positive and happy person by nature and right now I can honestly say I am happy and at peace. A guy stopped me in the street the other day as I was skipping and singing to myself while walking with my son, Hudson who was also dancing along.
"I didn’t even realise I was doing it, it was just happening, and that made me smile. It rubs off on Hudson and it even rubbed off on a total stranger. Happiness is very powerful and contagious."

"We love to read together, and we do so every night before bed. He’s getting really good at identifying his favourite books and toys."
