Sean‘s daughter Dylan recently opened up about his relationship with ex Madonna, who he was married to from 1985 to 1989.

“I think he just really admires her work,” Dylan explained while promoting her feature film debut, The Condemned (via ET). “They’re just really good friends and [I think] it’s sweet that they can have this relationship.”

“It was kind of surreal to meet her,” Dylan added. “Like, my Dad’s ex-lover.”
