At the time, sources told PEOPLE that Fox and Green were at odds over how to balance family life with work.

“They had several conflicts that led to the divorce,” a family source said. “Megan worked a lot last year, and she continues to work a lot. When she is away, Brian stays with the kids. Before they filed for divorce, they had disagreements about this situation.”

A few months into the separation, Fox and Green announced that they were having a third child together — and they reconciled the following year.

“During their separation, Brian always hoped Megan would change her mind about the divorce and he is very happy that she did,” a source told PEOPLE at the time. “They both worked hard to figure out their marriage and things seem great.”

Last year, the actor opened up about how the pair had struggled “at first” to see eye-to-eye about parenting but had since found common ground.

“We parent together,” Green said during an appearance on The Rachael Ray Show. “I’m very much more the bad cop than she is. And at first, that sort of was an issue for us, and now we listen to each other and we talk to each other about things.”

“And if she doesn’t like something, or I don’t, we respect it and we listen to it. We co-parent well,” he added of their dynamic, calling Fox a “fantastic wife” and mother.
