"I can't believe James Wilkie is an adult!" host Ripa says in the candid interview.

He is then asked by Consuelos how his twin girls are going.

"They're great. They can be nice to their dads, usually. They can be a little hard on the mums sometimes. But..."

The actor then pauses, realising his daughters may be watching and he may need to be careful what he says.

"Got it, got it!" the hosts say as the studio audience laughs along.

However, the father then reveals his twin daughters are getting ready for a big transition in their lives.

?"They're going to high school next year so they're very excited about that. Big step in their lives."

Then when asked what their relationship is like as twin sisters, Broderick revealed that it's constantly changing.

"They said they wanted to go to separate high schools, they were very serious about that. ?But then when it was time to decide for real they were like, 'No we're going to the same high school'."

"They're extremely close?, but they also definitely want their own space, and their own friends, and their own time."

He said ?Tabitha and Marion seemed to have found a good balance, revealing more about their unique relationship as twins.

"They're extremely close?, but they also definitely want their own space, and their own friends, and their own time."
