Gary Lineker lets pregnant ex-wife Danielle Bux move back into London pad they once shared… a week after she announces pregnancy with new man
Gary and Danielle divorced amicably in January 2016 after six years of marriage
Gary Lineker’s ex-wife Danielle Bux is back staying at the London home they once shared - despite announcing her pregnancy with new man Nate Greenwald a week ago.
The former couple, who have always insisted they remain good friends, are back under the same roof in south west London while Danielle is temporarily in the UK.
She moved to Los Angeles following her split from England legend Gary after six years and is now expecting a baby with US lawyer Nate, with sources saying she is “thrilled and so excited”.
It’s the latest display of friendship since announcing their incredibly amicable divorce in January 2016, amid reports she was keen to have more children while Gary felt he didn’t want to become a dad for a fifth time.
The 56-year-old is already father to four sons from his first marriage.
But the pair remain so close, that Danielle, 37, is currently staying at the London home where they once lived while a married couple.
A source said: “For many people this would be unthinkable – even people who have stayed on reasonably good terms after a split.
“To be able to stay together in the same house after a divorce, when one partner is now having a baby with someone else, is almost unheard of.
“But they’ve got an exceptional friendship. It’s extraordinary.”

Model Danielle and the Match of the Day host were spotted meeting up in London with her daughter and some friends for lunch just over a week ago, and the pair have been seen out together on several occasions since their divorce.
Gary is also said to be keen on her new partner, who Danielle met after moving in next door to him in Los Angeles.
And he was amongst the first to congratulate the couple on their pregnancy after she announced the news by posting a snap on her Instagram profile showing a clear baby bump.
He wrote: “Congratulations to you both.”
Representatives for Gary and Danielle both declined to comment.
