AceShowbiz - Joey Lawrence and Samantha Cope, who filed for divorce in August citing "irreconcilable differences," appear to have rekindled their romance. On December 4, Lawrence posted a series of affectionate photos on Instagram with Cope, captioning them with heartfelt messages of gratitude and love.
"I am beyond grateful, I am beyond blessed, I am galaxies beyond thankful... My heart is so full," wrote Lawrence in the caption, adding the hashtag "#myforeverafter." The photos showed the couple posing together at an event for their new movie, "Marry Christmas," which was filmed two years ago.
In one photo, Lawrence has his arm around Cope's waist as she rests her hand on his chest. The second photo is a romantic kiss, with the words "My forever after" written underneath. Cope responded with a simple, "love you," in the comments, to which Lawrence replied, "love you so much baby â¤ï¸."
Their reunion comes after Cope filed for divorce in August, claiming that the couple had separated on June 7. In her proposed parenting plan, Cope requested full physical custody of their 23-month-old daughter, Dylan Rose Lawrence, with visitation to Lawrence at her discretion.
Following the initial divorce filing, rumor suggested Lawrence cheated on Cope with his co-star Melina Alves. He quickly shut down the report and, instead, claimed the real culprit behind his failed marriage to Cope was her alleged reluctance to accept his two teenage daughters from his previous marriage to Chandie Yawn-Nelson.
"The unraveling of my marriage was tied to my realization that there was no way my two eldest daughters were ever going to be accepted by my wife to be part of my family," he said back then. "I cannot and will not compromise on the love and care that my daughters deserve."
