"The main thing is it is all about the kids. It really is. These kids are gorgeous, I miss them dearly. I was with them for a month straight and they're just incredible kids. They're young enough and hopefully this will all be behind them. The kids are still in California with Charlie and the nanny. "

Galanter refused to comment on Brooke's exact location but says she is with her mother to rest and recover from pneumonia and infection. He did not explain why someone would fly across the country with pneumonia rather than seeking top medical care available in Los Angeles.
