Asking for a friend: My new partner doesn't want to meet my kids or have anything to do with them. Will he ever come around to the idea?

I have two young children, and he refuses to meet them and says he doesn't want to be involved in any child-related activities or even conversation. It makes me really sad as my children are such wonderful little people, but he just doesn't want anything to do with them. I split up with their dad years ago and we co-parent well without any issues.
