Owen Wilson, the 54-year-old actor, was spotted at LAX Airport on Thursday, sharing a moment with his ex-girlfriend, Jade Duell. The couple, who parted ways back in 2011, co-parent their 12-year-old son, Robert. 

The reunion comes amidst recent claims made by Varunie Vongsvirates, Owen's ex, who asserted in 2021 that he was unwilling to see their four-year-old daughter.

Despite the past controversies, Owen seemed to be in good spirits as he bid farewell to Jade. He sported a casual look with a white tee, printed shorts, and sneakers. 

Renowned actor has three children, and each one's journey into the public eye has been marked by its unique complexities. 

His eldest son, Robert, shares the namesake of Owen's father; however, the actor affectionately refers to him as Ford. Additionally, Owen has a nine-year-old son named Finn, born to fitness trainer Caroline Lindqvist.

Caroline's pregnancy with Finn became a topic of public interest as reports emerged that she was in the process of divorcing her then-husband, plastic surgeon Ritu Chopra, at the time. Despite the circumstances, Owen's focus has been on co-parenting his son with Caroline.

In 2018, Owen welcomed his third child, a daughter named Lyla. However, the situation with Lyla's mother, Varunie Vongsvirates, has been more challenging.

Varunie expressed her earnest desire for Owen to be more involved in their daughter's life, stating that he has not met Lyla since her birth. Although Owen provides financial support, Varunie emphasizes that Lyla needs a father figure in her life.

Varunie and Owen's romantic relationship spanned five years before they parted ways. In 2018, a paternity test confirmed that Owen was indeed the father of Lyla.
