Actress Paula Patton has finally come forward publicly about her divorce from the 'Blurred Lines' singer, Robin Thicke, and how she's been able to cope with it along her four year old son who she's claimed joint physical and legal custody of.

For those that may not know, the couple married in 2005 and only just filed for divorce in October of last year. Patton appeared on the 'Good Morning America' talk show in good spirits and spoke with Robin Roberts.

On the brighter side, she began with stating that she's doing "very well."

She continued with:

"I mean, the honest truth is, it has been challenging, but it has been a year of growth - learning about all new things. I feel like everything happens for a reason, and then you have to move on and grow from there."

She then talked about how she seeks solace and strength in her son Julian.

"The thing is, you can't wallow in sadness or stay in bed when you have a child. And they're so full of life and wonder. And he brings me so much joy."

"Usually the positive in your life outweighs that. And you have to just be thankful for what you have right no."

Although Paula has never spoken on what exactly caused the divorce, Thicke has admitted in an interview with Oprah that his ego and use of drugs and alcohol attributed to the split.
