Victory Hereafter

“You two should lead seminars,” Fleming tells Virginia (Rita) and her ex-husband Victor of how they maintain a strong family unit and exemplary co-parenting since their divorce. And it’s a relationship that’s had perhaps more than its fair share of challenges. Having had their first son Victor at the end of high school, they credit both of their parents for helping them raise a new baby while just becoming adults themselves. Though they’d eventually realize they were better off as good friends, they continued to prioritize their sons above all, and now each socializes, attends family functions and even vacations with the other’s new spouses. Their foundation of respect is evident even in the way that Rita alternately turns to prompt Victor’s opinion on a topic, after she’s given her own.Join the conversation to hear Victor Sr.’s ambivalence toward protests against gun violence, the strength of his and Rita’s faith, and the one issue he and Rita ever argued about as co-parents.
