Hilary Duff Talks Estranged Husband Mike Comrie: "We Do Care a Lot About Each Other"
It's complicated. Hilary Duff said she and estranged husband Mike Comrie are working out their relationship post-separation. The bubbly blonde updated Us Weekly on what's happening with the former NHL player, and co-parenting their 2-year-old son Luca, at the ASPCA Cocktail Party in Beverly Hills, Calif., Tuesday, May 6.
"I don't think Mike would ever go anywhere," Duff, 26, told Us at the event. "I mean, we are really dedicated to taking care of Luca, and we're really good friends who spend a lot of time together." Since announcing their split in January, the two have surprised fans by subsequently taking a "Modern Family" vacation together with their tot, and even rocking out, sans Luca, at the Coachella Music and Arts Festival last month.
"We're not in a rush for anything," the former Disney Channel star explained. "So we're just trying to enjoy our lives and figure out what makes us happy and it's working for us." Though the two aren't technically back together, the parents remain open to seeing what happens before possibly moving forward with their divorce.
"We have Luca as our main priority," Duff reiterated, "but we do care a lot about each other. We're adults and we're making our way through life. Sometimes you do that together and apart and we're gonna be and we're going to do it in the most peaceful way possible."
The parents have had their hands full in recent months now that baby Luca is a toddler! "He's two!" Duff gushed of her baby boy. "So he definitely has a strong personality!" Laughing, she recalled, "He opened his own door today, I couldn't believe it! I was like, 'Wow, when did that happen?' Like when he can actually twist the doorknob and push the door open?"
Duff added to Us that she empathizes with her "spirited" child. "He's a little frustrated that he can't fully express what he wants," she explained. "We're still telling him what to do at certain points of the day when he's like, 'That's not what I want!' So I would say spirited is a great word [to describe Luca]. For the most part he has a really great demeanor. He loves to share and he's a kind kid."
Along with mommy-hood, Duff has also been busy helping big sister Haylie plan her upcoming wedding to Matt Rosenberg. "Actually we just started," Duff revealed. "We don't have a date or anything, but she's starting to throw out ideas for venues and she's obsessed with Pinterest. It's exciting."
The Duff family, it turns out, approves of entrepreneur Rosenberg for 29-year-old Haylie. "We really love him," Hilary gushed to Us. "He's a great guy—his name is Matt—and we think it's going to be beautiful."

Hilary Duff: ‘I Feel Extremely Guilty’ as a Busy Working Mom
Stars get mommy guilt too! Hilary Duff certainly keeps busy with her work on TV Land’s Younger, but the former child star, now 28, also takes the time to focus on her most important role of all: mom.
In the new February 2016 cover story for Redbook, the single mother opened up about raising her son, Luca, 3, after filing for divorce in February 2015 from estranged husband Mike Comrie.
“It’s hard to say that you really can have it all,” she told the magazine. “I think you can to a certain degree, but fully loaded, pedal-all-the-way-down is tough. You’re missing out on something, either on the career or on the family. When I’m really busy with work, I feel extremely guilty.”
Family is always the priority for Duff, who hasn’t ruled out having more kids, married or not.
“I don’t want to say I wouldn’t get married again, but it’s not important to me,” she told Redbook. “I don’t feel I would need to be married to have another child. If I felt strongly enough toward someone or if someone felt strongly about it, I might say OK. But it’s not essential.”
Duff and hockey player Comrie, 35, wed in August 2010 and welcomed their son in March 2012. In January 2014, the couple announced that they would be separating, but have remained close, coparenting Luca.
On December 19, Duff Instagrammed a black-and-white pic of her growing boy, writing, “About to kisssssss this face right off.”

Hilary Duff Files For Divorce from Mike Comrie: Report
Hilary Duff and Mike Comrie
GETTY
Hilary Duff has reportedly filed for divorce from her estranged husband Mike Comrie after nearly five years of marriage.
TMZ reports that the 27-year-old actress filed divorce papers shortly after rumors popped up about Comrie, 34, having a wild night out with friends at a restaurant in Beverly Hills, California.
The pair announced their separation in January 2014, but TMZ reports that Duff lists their separation date as January 2013.
The website also reports that Duff is seeking primary custody of their nearly 3-year-old son, Luca.
At the time of their split, Duff's rep maintained that she and her former NHL player husband would continue to co-parent their child.
"They remain best friends and will continue to be in each other's lives," Duff's rep said in a statement to PEOPLE back in January 2014. "They are dedicated to loving and parenting their amazing son, and ask for privacy at this time."
The former couple did stay true to their word about remaining close, even going on a Valentine's Day family vacation to Hawaii together with their son just a few weeks after announcing their split.
As Duff and Comrie remained friendly, rumors continued to pop up that the pair had reconciled, and they were spotted holding hands while leaving a Halloween party together in LA last year. However, they never confirmed that they had gotten back together.
Duff hasn't made any references to her official split from Comrie on her social media accounts. She did share a funny shot of Luca wearing a bag over his head on Valentine's Day, writing, "My Valentine is a weirdo."

Hilary Duff Hints She Lost Her Virginity to Joel Madden in Her Teens, Talks "Massive Friend Cleanse"
She’s been the girl next door since age 14, but Hilary Duff doesn’t have a problem shedding her good girl image from time to time. In the April issue of Cosmopolitan, the Younger star, now 27, opened up about the public’s perception, and her reality.

“I don’t have to prove to people that I’m an adult now. I am an adult,” said Duff, who indeed is mom to son Luca, 2, with future ex-husband Mike Comrie. “It’s frustrating to be put in a box, but I never needed to wild out to show that I’m grown-up.”

One naughty allowance she did make: a top secret friend with benefits!
“I’ve enjoyed myself,” she said when the Cosmo reporter asked if she previously had an “eff buddy.” “I think everyone should have something where you know it’s not exactly what you’re looking for but you just have a wicked good time. That was freeing for me and a bit of an awakening. It’s fun to have a secret.”

Many fans have been fixated on when (and with whom) the newly single mom first lost her virginity.
“I had a 26-year-old boyfriend,” Duff said of Good Charlotte rocker Joel Madden, whom she dated from ages 16 to 19. “So everyone can make their own assumptions about what I was doing.”

Madden, 36, is currently married to Nicole Richie, whom he began dating a month after splitting from Duff in 2006, and the couple shares daughter Harlow, 7, and son Sparrow, 5.
One way the former child star has been able to keep it classy is thanks to eliminating the negative people in her life.
“At 19, I did a massive friend cleanse,” she revealed. “That was really hard, to sit down with people and say ‘We can’t be friends anymore.’ They were like ‘That’s f—ked up; you’re a bitch.’ But having a good reputation was important to me. That’s not to say I didn’t screw up and do little naughties here and there.”
I Know What Makes Me Happy: Hilary Duff
Hilary Duff wants to explain her outfit. The reason she has come to out interview in leggings, a battered t-shirt and a pair of golden goose sneakers? She's heading to dance rehearsal after lunch to prep for a video for her new album. it just happens to be the first album she has put out in seven years—and the kickoff single, "All About You," is already earning raves. But let's be honest. One quick peek at her Instagram shows what Hilary is really all about: enjoying ordinary moments with her son Luca, 2. Over the past two years, the singer and actress, 27, has scaled back on work to raise Luca—and also to navigate one of the most difficult times in her life. She and her husband, Mike Comrie, separated last January after 3 1/2 years of marriage. Now Hilary is in the midst of more change: She moved to New York City to film her new show, Younger, which debuts in January on TV Land.
As she scans the menu, I can't help noticing all her tiny tattoos, so she gives me the tattoo tour, which charts her life from her Texas childhood to her Lizzie McGuire days at Disney, through career highs (her first four albums, three novels, more than a dozen films) and family milestones. She has a wishbone on her arm because she and her older sister, Haylie, used to break them apart. A little anchor that reminds her to keep her feet on the ground. Her son's name. And an arrow that matches ones her mom and sister have, symbolizing "always moving forward and having a goal," she explains. "I believe in having good luck charms. I think if you focus on something good, then good things will come to you."
Your TV show, Younger, from Sex and the City's Darren Star, sounds like a must-watch. Do you remember the moment you were like, 'This is the one!'? Or was the timing just right?
No, the timing was terrible! And I think that's when everything works out: When the timing is terrible and it's going to totally screw your life up, sometimes you just go for it. I absolutely loved the script, but I was like, "I can't move to New York, so I'm going to have to turn it down." It was right after Christmas. Mike and I were just getting ready to separate, Luca was about 18 months old and I was halfway through making my record. But I get a call from Darren, and he's like, "Can you just come shoot the pilot? I will make your work schedule so easy."
Cliff Watts
You have an album coming out in the new year. Why was it important to return to your music career?
I really missed performing. And I missed writing and talking about what I'm going through, what I love. (She picks up a shrimp with her fingers.) By the way, I love to eat with my hands. I think my manners went downhill since I've had a child. He's in the high chair, and I'll be standing up eating with him. I'm like, "Hilary, get it together!"
So what's the worst thing you've eaten with your hands that has made you think, If anyone saw me doing this right now...?
Noodles. Do you know how disgusting it is to eat noodles with your hands? I'll get food on my face from eating some of Luca's food. We'll go upstairs to get in the bath together, and I'll look in the mirror, and I'm like, "Sweet. Food on my face. How long has that been here?" Thank God we're alone.
It seems like you and Mike have a very good relationship while you co-parent your son.
We really didn't see it going any other way. We have a 2-year-old together. We love each other. Obviously it wasn't a rash decision that we made. We really are just trying to figure out how we are the most happy—whether together or apart—and we're doing it as lovingly as possible. We would hang out without Luca; we think it's important to keep a strong relationship no matter if we're married or not married. And we love our son. We both want to fight for happiness.
What has helped you stay centered during all these life changes?
I have found that since I had Luca and took a substantial time off, it really helped me. Before, I would make a record and be working on a movie and then do a tour, so I didn't have time to sit and breathe and just be comfortable with me. I got a broken heart during that time, and I had to do a lot of soul-searching. It was rough. It was an emotional two years.
Before Hollywood, you grew up in Texas. Do you think there is a little Texas still in you?
A lot of Texas in me! We grew up outdoors, going to the rodeo, running around barefoot and climbing trees. It was just very simple. And I think I was always scared of repercussions, like, how you would affect your family by doing this or that. That doesn't mean I haven't messed up. But my parents were the first to knock me down to earth when I bought my first house in L.A. and we were all living there. They were tough on me. I think it helped me hold on to my dignity.
What is your biggest health regret?
Constantly worrying that my body is not good enough. I work my butt off in the gym—and, yes, it's because I want to be fit, but it also puts me in a positive mind-set. If I don't have that for a week, I start to get more agitated and impatient; I get in a funk.
