Speaking exclusively with Us Weekly on Wednesday, July 24, about her QVC collaboration, the Beverly Hills, 90210 alum, 52, spoke candidly about her once-contentious relationship with Facinelli, 50, after he appeared on two episodes of her podcast, “I Choose Me,” in June. During the episodes, the pair talked in depth about their divorce and coparenting their three children.
“From the beginning, I thought in the back of my head, like a conversation with Peter when I got the strength to go forward with it, you know, follow through with it,” Garth explained to Us. “It happened so easily. I was nervous to ask him honestly because … it hasn’t been the easiest for us, and we have been really putting up a good face for the world.”
She added, “It’s been very difficult. We wanted to finally tell the truth and let people know that this evolution could happen for us, and it [is a] situation many people … [are dealing with].”
