Matthew Judon’s family is including everyone in their huddle.
The San Francisco 49ers defensive lineman’s ex-girlfriend Arabia Tillery recently shared a play by play into the NFL star’s unconventional home life.
“Welcome to our unorthodox family,” Iman shared in an Oct. 25 Instagram post, alongside Judon’s current girlfriend Alexis Samone. “Lex is Matthew’s girlfriend and she is currently eight months pregnant with their first child.”
Breaking down their squad, Tillery explained that she and Judon share one 7-year-old son, Roman, who keeps them connected. Samone, for her part, is also mom to a 7-year-old and an 8-year-old from a previous relationship.
“And all 6.5 of us live together in the same home,” Tillery continued. “It’s a CRAZY life with real moments. And we wanted to bring you with us.”
Tillery and Samone appeared to be on the offense together, sharing insight into making dinner for Judon as he traveled home following his team’s loss against the Atlanta Falcons.
“I’m making the chicken and waffles,” Tillery explained. “He’s on a plane, on the way home now and he wants it. When he get off the plane, he wants it hot and ready. So, Lex is doing dishes because she finished her buffalo dip as requested. I’m still working on my chicken and waffles.”
While Tillery did not share how she, Judon—also dad to three children with ex BreighAnn Judon—and Samone drew up their play, the All 32 analyst noted it’s simply what has “logistically” worked for them.
“We’ve been wanting to document our life—our unorthodox life for a minute,” Tillery explained. “We all live together in this happy home.”
Judon is not the first celebrity to share insight into cohabiting with an ex. Following the Los Angeles wildfires in 2025, Peter Facinelli emphasized that he didn’t think twice about inviting ex Jennie Garth—whom he was married to from 2001 to 2013—and her current husband Dave Abrams as they evacuated from their home.
“When people are going through hard times, my door is always open,” Facinelli—who shares three daughters with Garth—told E! News in an interview after their arrangement went viral. “So, as much as it’s flattering for someone to say, ‘Hey, it was really noble of you to take your ex-wife and husband,’ I mean, I could never imagine saying no.”
Indeed, while Facinelli’s romance with Garth is in the past—she remains an extremely important part of his life.
“I love her,” he continued. “She’s the mother of my kids. I consider her a friend. I consider her husband a friend.”

Jennifer Aniston & Brad Pitt
No, they are never, ever, ever getting back together. But at this point—between the birthday parties, the friendly embraces and even freaking acting out a sexual fantasy in a star-studded virtual reading of Fast Times at Ridgemont High—it feels like the former Hollywood golden couple is just taunting us.
Sarah Silverman & Jimmy Kimmel
You know you’re cool when you can pop into your ex’s talk show and give him a hard time. Such was the case when Silverman turned up on Kimmel’s stage in 2018 to chat about her show I Love You, America and his “cute,” “bright,” “funny” wife Molly McNearney. “It’s not fair!” the actress cracked. “She gets, like, new woke Jimmy. I had Man Show Jimmy.”
Chris Pratt & Anna Faris
TBH, we might still be mourning this relationship harder than either of its participants. Because when Faris—now married to cinematographer Michael Barrett—heard that Pratt was set to wed Katherine Schwarzenegger in 2019, she offered to officiate. She even sent over a gift after the newlyweds welcomed daughter Lyla in August 2020. Thrilled for son Jack to become a big brother, a source told E! News at the time that Faris “is very supportive.”
Tarek El Moussa & Christina Hall
It would have been super easy for the exes’ relationship to become a flop. But more than four years after a messy split, the HGTV stars are still killing it at two projects: parenting kids Taylor and Brayden and turning run-down properties into someone else’s dream home.
Lisa Bonet & Lenny Kravitz
Literally “best friends” as the rocker put it in a 2013 interview with Oprah Winfrey, the parents to actress Zoe Kravitz still consider themselves kin. “We’re one big happy family,” Lenny said of his ex, who went on to wed Jason Momoa before their 2020 split. “It’s beautiful, and it just shows you what can be done.”
Julianne Hough & Brooks Laich
After the Dancing With the Stars co-host and former hockey player called in quits in 2020, the pair have continually proved they are on good terms.
In 2025, Hough enjoyed a trip to the lake with Laich and his then-pregnant fiancée Katrín Tanja Davíðsdóttir.
And when Laich announced his marriage to the former Crossfit athlete in 2025, Hough celebrated the news, writing on Instagram, “Congratulations! So so happy for you both. Sending you all the love, health and happiness for the years to come to you and your beautiful family.”
Ben Affleck & Jennifer Garner
Since their 2015 breakup, the parents to Violet, Seraphina and Samuel have hit the conscious uncoupling trifecta: Joint vacations, shared holidays and public displays of admiration with Ben dubbing his ex “an amazing mother” during a 2016 interview with E! News.
Jennifer Garner & Michael Vartan
Affleck isn’t the only one of Garner’s exes who she’s stayed close with after breakup. She’s also friends with her former Alias costar, who she briefly dated in 2003 before her marriage to Affleck.
“I can’t remember why I was Bavarian, but I do know today is your birthday,” Garner wrote on Instagram in 2023 along a still from Alias, in which she was dressed in a dirndl. “I hope it’s a great one, Michael! XX.”
Nina Dobrev & Ian Somerhalder
The Vampire Diaries costars may have called it quits in 2013 after three years of dating, but they’ve remained close friends since then. In 2014, somerhalder started dating Nikki Reed and tied the knot later that year. Naturally, Dobrev befriended the Twilight actress.
Lady Gaga & Taylor Kinney
The two called it quits in July 2016 after five years together. The singer said on SiriusXM’s The Howard Stern Show the following October that she’s “very close” to Kinney, adding, “He’s been my lover and a friend for so long.”
“We love each other,” she said. “That’s it.”
Mindy Kaling & B.J. Novak
The Office‘s on-and-off pairing remained so tantalizingly close after the series wrapped in 2013 that even Kaling gets why people are still shipping them. “If I was on the outside looking at it, I would think the same thing,” she told Good Housekeeping in 2019 of naming him godparent to her kids. “But the truth is that B.J. is so much more like family now than a platonic friend.”
Ashlee Simpson & Pete Wentz
The exes had no trouble coparenting their son Bronx after finalizing their divorce back in 2011. The Fall Out Boy bassist has even said his former wife is “an awesome mom.”
Miley Cyrus & Nick Jonas
So she’s over those “7 Things” then? The Jonas Brothers musician has said he’s “really friendly” with the “Wrecking Ball” singer. “We’ve got a good relationship.”
Michael C. Hall & Jennifer Carpenter
The Dexter stars first met on set in 2006 before things got romantic in 2008. And though they divorced in 2011, Carpenter assured there was “nothing but love and respect” between the exes a few years later.
Bruce Willis & Demi Moore
Long the gold standard of copacetic exes, the parents to daughters Rumer, Tallulah and Scout remain so tight that the decision to ride out coronavirus stay-at-home orders together in Idaho was a no-brainer. Quarantine dance party anyone?
Jennifer Lopez & Marc Anthony
Some four years after their 2014 divorce, Lopez was still giving her former spouse—dad to her twins Max and Emme—props. “While I was married to Marc, he really helped me with my confidence and he saw where I suffered,” she said on a 2018 episode of Sunday Today. “He was like, ‘You’re a great singer. Don’t ever let anybody tell you you’re not a great singer.’ And I respected him so much ’cause I consider him one of the best singers of all time.”
Courteney Cox & David Arquette
Even if it hasn’t been his day, his week, his month or even his year, the actress will be there for her former husband and Scream costar. “I mean, as divorces go, I would say it’s one of the better ones. For sure,” she shared on Running Wild With Bear Grylls eight years after their 2010 split. Raising daughter Coco, she continued, “We’re good co-parents together.”
Cameron Diaz & Justin Timberlake
Their real-life romance may had fizzled in 2007, but that didn’t mean the two couldn’t heat up the screen in the 2011 movie Bad Teacher.
Peter Facinelli & Jennie Garth
Sure, the initial few months of their 2013 split were rough going, but the two have now reached the group vacation stage of their divorce. “I really like her husband and I think he’s a great guy,” the Twilight alum told LaPalme Magazine of a 2017 trip to Cancun that included Garth, Dave Abrams, Peter’s now-fiancée Lily Anne Harrison and their three daughters Luca, Lola and Fiona.
As for his relationship with Garth, he continued, “People come into your life for a reason and relationships can change,” he told LaPalme. “Just because we aren’t living together doesn’t mean you can’t love each other.”
Will Arnett & Amy Poehler
Despite a surprise separation in September 2012, the Blades of Glory costars decided to put on a united front for their children. “As you know, Will and I are very, very good friends,” Poehler explained during a 2014 interview with Howard Stern. “We are doing a really good job. I don’t think a 10-year marriage constitutes a failure. I think relationships are really tough.”
Maren Morris & Ryan Hurd
The Grammy winner and songwriter ex—who finalized their divorce in January 2024—have remained on good terms as they continue to parent their son Hayes. In fact, the pair live just five minutes apart from one another, which makes co-parenting a breeze.
“Our stops are really easy,” Morris told The Zoe Report in May 2025, “and we’ll have family dinners.”
