Melanie Griffith Bonds With Daughter Stella After Ex Antonio Banderas Steps Out With Much Younger Girlfriend

While Antonio Banderas may have seemingly moved on from ex Melanie Griffith, the Body Double star is busy spending the holidays with the former couple's only child. 

The 57-year-old actress, who filed for divorce from the Zorro star in June after 18 years of marriage, stepped out on Tuesday in Aspen with her 18-year-old daughter,Stella. 

The pair was photographed running errands before the two embarked upon a little mother-daughter Christmas shopping, enjoying a low-key outing together before the holiday officially begins. 

Griffith and her daughter were both dressed warm for the chilly weather. The mother of three—who is also a parent to Dakota Johnson, her daughter from her first marriage to Don Johnson and the star of Fifty Shades of Grey, as well asAlexander Bauer, her son from her second marriage to Steven Bauer—sported a long black coat, cat-eye shades and black boots, flashing a subtle smile for the snap-happy paps. 

Her daughter, meanwhile (who, we might add, is becoming more stunning by the day), was also dressed casual in a puffy black jacket, jeans and tennis shoes. 

The most recent sighting of the actress comes just one day after Banderas wass potted out with his new girlfriend Nicole Kimpel, a Dutch investment consultant who is some 20 years younger than the Puss in Boots star. The two were photographed on a jog together in Marbella, Spain, and Banderas recently told The Olive Press that they are "in the process of getting to know each other."

"She is shy and doesn't have anything to do with my work," he added. "Which is no bad thing."

Since the exes announced their split, the two had been maintaining a low profile, but they seem to be finally stepping out ahead of the New Year.

"We have thoughtfully and consensually decided to finalize our almost twenty years marriage in a loving and friendly manner honoring and respecting each other, our family and friends and the beautiful time we have spent together," Griffith and Banderas said in a joint statement in early June when their divorce was first announced. 

Dakota Johnson & Stella Banderas: Sisters Bonding

Dakota Johnson, and her half-sister Stella Banderas, were seen out together in Los Angeles, Calif. on Friday (March 14). They bonded over shopping and getting manicures.

Stella – whose father is Antonio Banderas – looked like she got a matching nail color.

Last month Dakota talked about working on Fifty Shades of Grey.

She said, “It’s been a very smooth, fun and creative experience. I think going into something like this you kind of have all these different fears of what it could be like, and none of those things are happening.

“We all get a long really well, the crew is amazing and we’re just all trying to make this project the best that it can be.”

Melanie Griffith: Shoppin’ With Stella

Melanie Griffith and her daughter Stella Banderas, were spotted shopping in Aspen, Colorado last weekend. The pair bundled up in the snowy weather.

Melanie’s 24-year-old daughter Dakota Johnson is currently filming Fifty Shades of Grey.

The Working Girl actress defended Dakota winning the role of Anastasia Steele when some fans weren’t happy with the news.

She tweeted: “My beautiful child Dakota has been chosen to play Anna Steele in 50 Shades. Look out world! Here she comes!!! #proudmama.”
