  • Long Island Medium is back on TLC starting Friday, October 18 at 9 p.m. ET.

  • Prior to the premiere, TLC star Theresa Caputo gave GoodHousekeeping.com an update on her status with her ex-husband, Larry.

  • Theresa says Larry is still her "friend" and that fans should expect to see him on the show from time to time.


A new season of TLC's Long Island Medium begins on October 18, which means more celebrity readings, lol-worthy Caputo family time, and emotional moments are coming your way.

During last season, fans watched as the show's star Theresa Caputo and her ex-husband Larry navigated life after separating (their divorce was finalized in December 2018).

Even though they are now divorced, Theresa tells GoodHousekeeping.com that upcoming episodes of Long Island Medium will still occasionally show Larry, who is now living in California. After all, besides being co-parents of their children, Victoria and Larry Jr., they are still "friends."

"I never thought in a million years that Larry and I would be divorced, but the way that we still have our relationship [that is something I am so proud of]," she explains to us. "You know, we're able to communicate with each other and be there for our kids and still allow him to have that separate relationship with our children from myself."

For the Long Island Medium star, she credits their joint honesty, respect for one another, and strong communication for getting them through their divorce. But even though Theresa says she is in a good place with Larry, getting used to being single has been tough on her.

"It's hard because sometimes there are those times where I'll go, 'Oh, I'm going to go call Larry and tell him,' and then I go, 'Oh wait, I can't do that,'" she says.

She continues: "I still love Larry, it's ... how can I not? You know, we had 34 years together. Larry and I started dating when I was 18, you know? So, he was such a big part of my life, we have children together, so I still love him, just in a different way now."

Looking back on their decision to part ways, Theresa says she and Larry were both "not happy." After going through therapy, they ultimately decided that splitting up was best for them. Similarly, they jointly chose to be open about their marriage on the TLC show.

"He supported me with my gift and doing this and more importantly putting our lives on Long Island Medium. And people say, 'how could you handle that?' and I say, 'How could you not?' This is what we were going through," she says.

Theresa and Larry's transparency is also something the medium say she's really "proud of" on the show. But Larry aside, Theresa reveals the upcoming season will feature plenty of other notable family moments, as well.

"There are a lot of different changes," she teases. "We did a lot of different things with readings, Victoria's engaged and getting married ... and Larry [Jr.]'s still with Leah."

In other words, you'll want to cancel your Friday night plans for the next few months.
