Alexa and Brennon Lemieux are putting their differences aside for the holiday season.
Just weeks after the Love is Blind season 3 alums announced their divorce, Alexa shared a photo of her estranged husband cuddling up with their daughter on Christmas morning.
In one photo shared to Alexa’s Instagram Story on Dec. 25, 17-month-old Vienna Ziva Lemieux is seen surrounded by Christmas gifts as she looks through a picture book. In another, the little one is seen in her dad’s lap as she shows off her adorable holiday pajamas.

The sweet holiday reunion comes after the former couple shared a joint statement on Instagram announcing their split after four years of marriage.
“We entered this relationship with love and optimism, and we leave it with gratitude for the experiences that shaped us and the growth we each gained along the way,” the statement explained. “While our journey as a married couple is coming to an end, we remain supportive of one another, devoted to our daughter, and committed to navigating this transition with compassion.”
According to documents obtained by PEOPLE, Brennon filed for divorce nearly a month before the pair announced the news publicly. The petition filed Nov. 5 states that “the marriage has become insupportable because of discord or conflict of personalities between” Alexa and Brennon “that destroys the legitimate ends of the marriage relationship and prevents any reasonable expectation of reconciliation.”

The documents also noted that the parents of one plan to come to a written agreement outside of court regarding the custody of their daughter.
In August, the pair celebrated Vienna’s first birthday with a The Summer I Turned Pretty-themed party, calling the soirée “The Summer Vienna Turned One.”

Both parents gushed about their daughter at the time, with Alexa calling the first year of Vienna’s life “the greatest gift” following a “really hard” journey with infertility.
“Being Vienna’s mama is something I’ve never taken for granted,” Alexa told PEOPLE. “She is the most loving, kind, silly, and beautiful little girl. Watching her grow over the last year has been the greatest gift. I can’t remember life before her and can’t imagine life without her.”
Echoing the sentiment, Brennon said his daughter has “turned my world into something more beautiful than I ever imagined.”
