Christina Haack & Josh Hall Split After Two Years Of Marriage
Christina Haack is sharing devastating new details about her breakup from estranged husband Josh Hall.
In a first look at her and first husband Tarek El Moussa’s new real estate reality series The Flip Off, the HGTV star gets emotional while detailing the end of her third marriage
While meeting up to talk business, Tarek asks a distressed Christina, "You good?" to which she replies, "No. Josh and I officially split up."
"We had a blow up," the 41-year-old continues in the preview, released Dec. 12. "Middle fingers in my face. Things with Josh have been bad for a long time."
The Christina on the Coast host then makes a devastating revelation involving her and Tarek's children Taylor, 14, and Brayden, 9.
"The kids literally asked me to leave," Christina—also mom to 5-year-old Hudson with second husband Ant Anstead—tells Tarek, who she divorced in 2016 after seven years of marriage. "They told me he’s not nice to me. Why would I stick around?"
Christina then breaks down in tears while reflecting on not just her ongoing divorce from Josh, but also her dramatic breakup from Ant, who she split from in 2020 after two years together.
"I feel like I’m in a tornado all the time and I just can’t get out of it," she says through tears. "Everything since like 2016 has been so hard and so horrible. It’s really taken a really bad toll on me."
Tarek—now wed to Selling Sunset’s Heather Rae El Moussa since 2021— then attempts to comfort his ex in her time of need.
"I understand that feeling of feeling a little bit lost," he tells her. "And I acknowledge that I'm a big part."
Following Christina and Josh's breakup this summer after two years of marriage, she called out her estranged husband amid their divorce proceedings. (They both cited irreconcilable differences in divorce docs, however Christina listed their date of separate as July 7 whereas he wrote July 8.)

"I have worked my ass off to build this life for myself and my children and anyone who would try and take what they do not deserve/what they did NOT work for should be ashamed,” she wrote in a July 25 Instagram Story. “An insecure man with a large ego can sure try and derail you- but 'still i rise.’”
"For those that aren't aware ... divorces do not happen overnight,” she added, “& there is always a breaking point. This one is personal.”
For his part, Josh spoke out claiming it was not his decision to end their relationship.
"I prefer privacy, especially during something as life changing as a divorce I did not ask for," the 43-year-old wrote on Instagram Aug. 2. "I will not publicly badmouth anyone as people have families, friends and others who respect and love them. Unfortunately the internet is forever."
Josh was also noticeably absent from the first look at season two of Christina in the Country, which was filmed prior to the former couple's messy split.
See the drama play out when The Flip Off premieres Jan. 29 on HGTV.
