Laurence Fox has responded after his ex-wife Billie Piper claimed co-parenting two children with the actor had come with “enormous difficulty”.
Piper, who has been largely coy about her 2016 divorce from political activist Fox, made the comments in an interview with British Vogue.
On Friday, Fox responded in an extended post on social media site X.
“The reality is that not all marriages work out and the world isn’t perfect,” he wrote.
“I do however take great exception to the assertion that co-parenting with me is enormously difficult,” he added.
“I have never tried to deny our boys access to their mum and I would never wish her anything other than a stable family.
“My only focus these past years has been to be present in their lives and be a loving dad. I’m not perfect, but I’ve done my absolute best to put the kids first.”

Fox claimed Piper had taken him to court “more than a dozen times” since their split, “forcing us to hand over more money which really should be going towards the children’s future”.
He also criticised the “secretive” family court system, which he claimed was “hugely weighted towards the mother” and was “totally unfit for purpose”.
