"And as he continued to do the right thing, we saw Ron more, and that’s why you see him on the season this year because he, you know, continued to do the right thing."
Since resurfacing on the series, Ron has sold his Los Angeles home.
After selling the property, he relocated to Miami and has maintained primary physical custody of his and Jenn Hartley's daughter Ariana.
