Making it work. Jeff Lewis opened up about the visitation schedule he and his ex Gage Edward are working on for their 2-year-old daughter, Monroe.
“Right now, it’s good,” the Flipping Out star, 49, said on Thursday, May 2, on his Sirius XM show, Jeff Lewis Live. “I don’t think we need attorneys at this point. He understands that we need some kind of structure.”
The reality star said he told his ex-boyfriend, “‘I know that our schedules change weekly, so how about we go over the week ahead of time?'”
Lewis was also clear about not wanting to be around his ex when Edward visits the toddler. “I miss a lot of things about Gage, but one thing I don’t miss is the dramatic mood swings,” he admitted. “I don’t have to deal with that s–t anymore. I don’t want to deal with that s–t anymore. Let the new boyfriend deal with the mood swings. I am done. I am retired from the mood swings.”
He and his ex, who welcomed their baby girl in 2016 via surrogate, split in January after more than eight years together.
“I have to tell you … and I don’t think this is actually bad news, but Gage actually moved out of the house last night,” the interior designer said on his radio show at the time. “This has been a long time coming. We’ve been in separate rooms for a very long time … we’ve had a lot of discussions about it … It was kind of like a roommate situation.”
Lewis added: “Something happened around December, where I was like, ‘S–t, this is getting real.’ … I didn’t help the matter any, at all. I didn’t fight for the relationship, I didn’t work at the relationship.”
The next month, the Bravo personality said he was “going to pursue having another child … with or without” his ex.
