The two were smiling and back together to take Milana to her first ever concert, which happened to be Imagine Dragons.
He captioned the photo carousel, “What an amazing night. Thanks to the Imagine Dragons for giving our daughter her first concert experience. She was absolutely over the moon. As were her mom and dad to be there to see her jump and sing along like the little super fan she is. Unfortunately there was no DRUM SOLOOOOO!!!! @imaginedragons.”
The former couple were amicably co-parenting, which is something Joe expressed in a December 31 post.

Joe announced he would be disbanding from his “Impractical Jokers” crew consisting of him, Brian “Q” Quinn, Sal Vulcano , and James “Murr” Murray.
In his Instagram announcement he also noted that he is going through problems in his personal life, and that he and Bessy had decided to part ways after eight years of marriage.
Joe started out, “Sorry in advance for the long and more-serious-than-usual note below, I just wanted to let you all know that I will no longer be involved with Impractical Jokers. Alongside my friends, I’ve devoted a decade of my life to building this franchise and couldn’t be prouder of what has been accomplished. However, due to some issues in my personal life, I have to step away. Bessy and I have decided to amicably part ways, so now I need to focus on being the best father and co-parent to our two incredible kids.”
The comedian also made sure to note that his compadres, Q, Sal and Murr will continue their legacy of brining laughs and happiness to fans. He also thanked the behind-the-scenes crew for all of their hard work.
“I know they will continue to make the world laugh. And even though the four of us are the ones who you all see, this show is only possible due to the hard work of the talented crew members who work behind the scenes. I am very thankful to have worked with each and every one of them,” he wrote. “To all of the amazing fans, thank you for allowing me to make you laugh with Jokers. They say that laughter is the best medicine, and I hope I’ve been able to provide some of that over the last decade. Seeing you laugh has been my own medicine, particularly in these weird and difficult times we find ourselves.
The "Impractical Jokers" star concluded, “As I work through the challenges I am facing, I hope to and am excited to create new ways to entertain you. Much love, Joe.”
