Former British footballer Gary Lineker has let his ex-wife Danielle Bux, who announced her pregnancy with entertainment lawyer Nate Greenwald a week ago, stay in the London house they shared as a couple.
Lineker and Bux divorced amicably in January 2016 after six years of marriage. This gesture of allowing his ex to stay at his South West London house temporarily till she is in the UK, shows that despite their divorce, they still care for each other.

"For many people this would be unthinkable — even people who have stayed on reasonably good terms after a split. To be able to stay together in the same house after a divorce, when one partner is now having a baby with someone else, is almost unheard of. But they've got an exceptional friendship. It's extraordinary," a source told The Sun.

The 37-year-old model moved to Los Angeles following her split from Lineker. It was reported that Bux wanted to have a kid with the footballer, but he wasn't ready to have a fifth child. The 56-year-old is already father to four sons — George (24), Harry (22), Tobias (20) and Angus (18) from his first marriage to Michelle Cockayne.
