Working with exes isn’t foreign to her as her first ex-husband, Tarek El Moussa, is on The Flip Off, and they had 10 successful seasons of its predecessor Flip or Flop, some of which was filmed post their divorce. The new show will also feature Tarek’s new wife, Heather, as they compete against Haack.
Tarek and Haack were married for seven years until 2016. They share a daughter Taylor, 14, and son Brayden, 9.
Anstead and Haack share a son, Hudson. She says the two have been focused on co-parenting civilly. “Ant and I share Hudson… and I feel like he deserves to have us get along,” she said recently.
Hall filed for divorce on July 15 after nearly three years of marriage, citing irreconcilable differences, and requested spousal support from Haack, which she asked a judge to deny in her response.
Their divorce has been less than amicable. The estranged couple have fought over everything from money to property.
In October, Hall denied that he’d asked Haack for $65k monthly in spousal support. In her court documents, Haack alleged: “Josh Hall is requesting $65,000 per month in spousal support from [Christina] on a 2 year, 9 month marriage, which is outrageous when he is self-supporting.” He’s claimed both she and her lawyer are lying.
