Lawyer Reveals What Christina And Ant Anstead's Divorce Means For Their Blended Family
Davis points out that the split "means they are no longer a blended family." She says that divorces can be especially tough on blended families when a couple breaks up after a relatively short time together, since "the kids get caught in the cross fire and now the step children, who all had to mash up together and live together and start thinking of themselves as one family...have to come to the understanding that they are leaving their step-siblings and [the step-siblings are] leaving them too." Kind of a lot to process for a kid.
In Davis' opinion, the Ansteads "should have known the impact on their children of mashing them together when they first became married." She says that she's sure that divorce was a hard choice for the couple to make (as per Instagram, it was, in fact, a "difficult decision"), but her sympathy lies with the children of the family who will likely "need some assistance and counseling around what this change means."
