After 18 years of marriage, actors Malaika Arora Khan and Arbaaz Khan finally got divorced earlier this year. However, like Hrithik Roshan and Sussanne Khan who have been setting new ex-couple goals for everyone, Malaika and Arbaaz are not letting their differences affect the relationship that they shared with each other's family.
Perhaps this is the reason why Malaika is with Arbaaz and his Khan-daan on a vacation abroad.
Malaika posted quite a few pics of her Spanish vacation, but what caught everybody's attention was the one picture where she is seen attending a lavish lunch with Arbaaz Khan and his family. Also seen in the picture are Sohail Khan and his wife Seema along with their son.
A happy Arhaan is also seen by his mummy's side. Here's the picture that's making waves today.
On the other hand, Arbaaz also shares a close bond with his sister-in-law Amrita Arora Ladakh as well as his mother and father-in-law. The two families recently got together for a casual Sunday brunch with the family.
And then Amrita had shared a really adorable picture with her ex-brother-in-law during Eid celebrations last month.

In fact, Arbaaz had even mentioned that despite all their efforts their marriage just couldn't work. But he mentioned that Malaika would always be a special part of his life
"I look back and see 22 years of togetherness — five years of courtship and 17 years of marriage and a child. And I wonder why this and why that and what could have been corrected. And if there were mistakes from my end or her side. We just couldn’t work around it. We did our bit of counselling...," he said while talking about the reason fro their separation.
Co-parenting after a divorce...
Divorce can make things bitter between you and your spouse, but being a parent you should not let it affect your child. Here’s how you can make sure that your child gets love from both parents:
1. Work as one team: It’s important to assure your child that no matter what happens between the two of you, you would always be one team and would always be by his side in times of need and even otherwise.
2. Never force our child to take sides: Irrespective of your relationship status, you both will still be his parents and your child would naturally love you both equally. This is why it is advisable to never force your child to take sides and drag him in the mess.
3. Never disrespect your spouse in front of your kids: Communicate effectively and be cordial to each other, no matter how bitter you are from inside. Never ever disrespect your spouse in front of your child as for him you would always be his parents. Never forget that.
