I don't think so unless of course they have children and in that case should be limited to discussion of the children.
If they were such "good friends" and were "so close", they wouldn't be Ex's now would they?
I have a standing rule and it has worked out pretty well for me. If a partner has had a friend and they can't or won't be my friend as well, then it's simple...THEY GO!
When we become a couple, we become one and if there's some reason they don't feel comfortable with me as part of the deal, to me it spells trouble and shows they have an agenda with their "friendship".

That depends on the situations. If children are involved from the prior marriages, then of course you should be communicating with your ex. Most of the time they are an "ex" for a reason. Either they did something you couldn't deal with... or they were a person you decided you could no longer live with. If no children are involved, you should keep communication down to a minimum out of respect for your new spouse. Being "friends" is fine, just be careful making it an issue. Don't make it "something they couldn't deal with" and make them another ex. Stop the cycle and move on. Look to the past as a lesson. Look to the future as a new horizon.

I think it depends on the individuals involved.
My ex and I have a son together, and we seem to get along OK.
She also get's along with my wife well. And buys our kids birthday or christmas gifts also.
My ex also had breast cancer and chemo. I took her to her appointments. My wife wanted me to do that. Her family lives out of State and I was probably the most logical one to help her out.
She and my wife talk often as well as my son comes to our house or our kids go there to stay.
So, in my case it is a good thing...especially where the kids are concerned.

If both parties still have feelings for their old flames then they shouldn't communicate with them.

Sometimes you have to if you have a child together. Other than that, as long as your current spouse or partner knows about it and doesn't have a problem with it.
