Sharna Burgessmade sure to clear the air withBrian Austin Green’s exMegan Foxonce she began spending more time with the former couple’s three kids.
On Wednesday’s episode of Nick Viall’s podcastThe Viall Files, Burgess opened up about her relationship with Fox, revealing that she previously reached out to the actress to discuss co-parenting, which Burgess says Fox “really appreciated.”
“After we’d been dating for about four or five months I was like, ‘Can I get Megan’s number?’ " Burgess recalls asking Green. “I’d love to text her… I’d love to reach out and say, ‘Hey, I’m around your kids all the time, if you ever want to know anything about me or if you ever want to get coffee, let me know. If there is any way I can support you in being part of this situation, let me know.’ "

“I think she really appreciated that, and she said, ‘Thank you,’ " adds Burgess. “And she’s thanked me for being great with her kids, too.”
Elsewhere in the episode, Burgess explains why she doesn’t compare herself to Fox.
“You can’t walk into a new situation with someone and expect them to leave behind everything that they’re experiencing or have been through. Brian had a whole life with another person and babies,” she says.
“I wanted to know him, to support him, to love him… but there is no comparison, and why would you compare? That obviously didn’t work for a reason,” adds Burgess. “For me to compare myself to that or to bring that into this relationship doesn’t make sense.”
