Christina Haack, an HGTV reality star and American real estate investor, has been in
several dating relationships, engagements, and marriages over the years.
Keep watching for an inside look at Christina Haack's dating history.
We first came to know Christina Haack as the wife of her Flip or Flop co-star, Tarek El
Moussa.
The two met in 2005 while working together in real estate.
Once El Moussa ended a previous relationship, things moved quickly; Haack told Good Housekeeping
that they moved in together the day they, quote, "officially started dating" in October
2006.
They married in 2009 and welcomed daughter Taylor in 2010.
Unfortunately, they had fallen on hard times after the 2008 financial crisis.
Their big break came after submitting an audition tape for a show about house flipping, which
the two had considered as a potential career change.
The tape caught HGTV's attention and in 2013, Flip or Flop became an instant success.
Viewers loved both the couple's home transformations and their story.
There were major triumphs, including the growth of their family, but there were also personal
setbacks: El Moussa's cancer diagnosis after a nurse/viewer contacted him about a lump
she noticed on his neck; their struggle to conceive their second child through IVF; and
their shocking 2016 split after a largely publicized incident involving a gun, which
turned out to be a, quote, "misunderstanding."
Despite her divorce from El Moussa and the occasional ups and downs, Haack continues
to work with her ex on Flip or Flop and co-parent their two adorable kids.
Soon after news of Christina Haack's separation from Tarek El Moussa made headlines, Haack
was linked to Gary Anderson — a contractor who had worked for her and her ex.
In fact, according to The Hollywood Gossip, Anderson was at the El Moussas' home the day
police responded to Haack's frantic 911 call, which she made after El Moussa grabbed a gun
and went for a walk.
Anderson allegedly witnessed the incident and told Haack to call 911.
In January 2017, In Touch shared the first photos of Haack and Anderson, who were seen
going for a walk near Anderson's home in Yorba Linda, California.
A source who witnessed the former couple said, “They seemed so relaxed and comfortable
together — totally in sync.
Christina looked adoringly at him.
She was beaming!”
Although Anderson provided a shoulder to lean on during Haack's darkest days following her
split from El Moussa, this relationship wasn't meant to last: Us Weekly reported that the
romance fizzled out in February 2017, largely due to, quote, "too many outside pressures."
In March 2017, shortly after her split from contractor Gary Anderson, Christina Haack
was rumored to be seeing NHL player Nate Thompson — a former player for the Anaheim Ducks
who currently plays for the Philadelphia Flyers.
A source told ET at the time, "Christina and Nate have gone on a couple
dates together.
It's still very new and they're seeing where it goes."
In the end, it didn't go very far.
By April, ET had confirmed that the two were no longer seeing each other.
A source told the outlet that nothing dramatic happened and that the two were, quote, "super
casual from the start."
Additionally, the source said that timing got in the way and that they remained friends.
By June 2017, according to ET, Christina Haack had reconnected with Doug Spedding, an ex
she dated before Tarek El Moussa.
Just a month later, the two were getting somewhat serious: A source noted to ET that Haack had
even introduced daughter, Taylor, and son, Brayden, to Spedding, who was a successful
car dealership owner.
They also met his six kids.
However, by October of that year, the two called it quits for a dramatic reason.
A source told In Touch that Haack ended the relationship when she discovered his drug
use and convinced him to return to rehab.
The source said, "Christina is the type of person who sees
the best side of others, and that's how she was with Doug.
Caring about someone does not save someone and Christina knows that.
She just wanted to help him."
A second source told In Touch that Spedding was allegedly cheating on the HGTV star with
an ex-girlfriend.
This source claimed that Christina saw text messages on Spedding’s phone between him
and his ex.
Christina Haack's next relationship was with Ant Anstead, the British host of the show
Wheeler Dealers.
Us Weekly confirmed their relationship in January 2018, though Haack revealed in a now-deleted
Instagram post that they had begun seeing each other in October 2017.
Things moved quickly for the couple.
A December 2018 surprise wedding took place in the backyard of their Southern California
home, all of which was shared on Haack's solo HGTV series, Christina On the Coast.
"So not only do we want the engagement to be a secret, we want the whole entire wedding
to be a secret."
A month later, she changed her last name on Instagram.
And, in March 2019, she announced her pregnancy with their first child, which made for a blended
family: In addition to Haack's two children, Anstead has two children from his previous
marriage.
By September 2019, Hudson London Anstead was born, and all seemed to be going well.
That's why it came as a shock to many when the pair revealed their separation in September
2020.
A source shared with People that the couple began struggling after the baby was born and
that, despite appearances, the Christina On the Coast star felt, quote, "lonely and unhappy."
Shortly after their split, Anstead revealed on Instagram that the separation was not his
idea.
By June 2021, their divorce was finalized.
After her split from Ant Anstead, Christina Haack returned to her maiden name and didn't
seem interested in dating.
So, we were shocked to learn in July 2021 that Haack had moved on with Joshua Hall — a
realtor living in Austin, Texas.
As noted by Us Weekly, the two began dating in April 2021 after initially meeting several
years earlier while Haack was with Anstead.
By August, it was clear from an Instagram photo that Haack's new man had already met
her kids and by September, she confirmed their engagement.
Reflecting on her past and present, she said, "Some people are lucky enough to get forever
the first time but no one should be shamed for things not working out and no one knows
what goes on behind closed doors."
"This woman/mama is still lucky enough to have this man choose me."
Haack has had to fight off haters who feel she jumped the gun with Hall.
However, the star remains firm that this is the real deal.
She explained in another post, “I met Josh when I wasn’t in a state of
fear or fight-or-flight [...] When we met this past spring, the synchronicities hit
us so hard and fast they were impossible to ignore.”
As a result, she initially kept her relationship with Hall — who doesn't have social media
— more private.
