Neighbors star Daniel MacPherson is reflecting on his ‘special’ co-parenting relationship with ex Zoe Ventoura – following the debut of a new romance with House Rules star Jessica Dover
Daniel MacPherson has revealed his co-parenting relationship with his ex-wife Zoe Ventoura.
The former Neighbors star, 43, told The Daily Telegraph he feels incredibly fortunate to be on an equal footing with fellow actress Zoe when it comes to raising their three-year-old son Austin.
“I have a wonderful relationship with Austin’s mother. We do a lot together and also individually. “It’s very special,” he said.
“He’s healthy and he loves his mom and dad — and his mom and I look at each other and know we’re doing it right.”
Daniel, who recently announced his new relationship with ‘House Rules’ star Jessica Dover, also reflected on how far he’s come in the last few years.

He mentioned how difficult it was for him to cope with his divorce, being a single parent, returning to Australia after a decade in the US, the coronavirus lockdowns and being the eldest sibling in his family.
“After going through a baptism of fire – I wouldn’t say, but going through the blast furnace in many areas of my life for a few years – it took every ounce of mental strength to come out the other side,” he admitted.
Daniel is currently rehearsing for his role in the upcoming Melbourne production of the West End play 2:22 A Ghost Story.

Daniel officially took to Instagram with his new girlfriend Jessica in April.
Love rumors began circulating in March when the Neighbors actor was spotted racing with the former House Rules star.
Jessica confirmed the news by sharing a series of photos on Instagram to mark Dan’s 43rd birthday. “Happy Birthday @danmacpherson. “I love you,” she wrote in the caption.

Reposting Jessica’s tribute, Daniel also shared a picture of the model standing by the sea alongside the caption, “Birthday visitor.”
The new romance came about two years after Dan and Zoe split in December 2020, after five years of marriage.
The former couple shared almost identically worded posts on Instagram at the time, showing that they had mutually decided to separate.
The couple have one son together, Austin Xavier, three, who was born in December 2019. They decided to keep their child out of the public eye and didn’t even announce that Zoe is pregnant.
