>> Do-over.
There's no winning here.
Nobody won.
>> Do-over.
>> Tarek el Moussa stars
alongside his ex-wife Christina.
>> He also has "Tarek's flip
side" and another show coming
out.
You're busy.
>> Yeah, very busy.
>> You look good.
You look healthy.
Are you feeling good?
>> This is the best I've ever
felt.
I went through a rough run for
five years.
I was real sick.
And today I'm healthy, happy.
My kids are doing amazing.
My career is doing wonderful.
>> Isn't life a wild ride?
>> I've lived a lifetime.
>> I've lived about 50 lives.
>> It works with you and
Christina on this show.
How did "Flip or flop" the
original, even come about?
>> It was back in 2010, I had
this crazy idea.
I met this guy who had a local
TV show.
He's like, I'm selling more
houses.
I told Christina, we have to get
on TV.
She's like, you're crazy.
I know.
I started submitting to
production companies and that
was it.
I worked so hard building all my
companies and getting the TV
show.
Everything kind of happened.
It was so weird.
It was like meant to be.
>> Was there ever a point before
that where you were like, I
really want to get on TV?
What was that moment for you
that you were like, we got to do
this?
>> I never one time in my life
ever thought about TV until the
second I send that first email.
>> Really?
>> Yeah.
>> And the other thing about
your show, everybody that
watches it is like, I could do
this.
I could do this.
What's the biggest mistake
people make out there when
trying to flip or flop?
Or they're just trying flip it?
>> The biggest mistake is
they're not educated.
It's important to know what
you're doing.
I'm coming out with a lot of
digital products that show
people how to invest in real
estate.
And the biggest mistake is just
because the house is a piece of
junk doesn't mean it's a good
deal.
Make your money when you buy.
You have to buy right.
>> Interesting.
>> I buy high and sell low.
It's not been good.
>> Opposite.
>> I do the same on my own
houses.
>> Opposite.
You guys seem to work really
well together.
You and your ex-wife.
Has it been better to get along
on the show having separate
lives now?
>> It makes it fun to watch.
It just does.
>> You know, season 8 just
started.
One episode has aired.
There's an all new episode at
9:00 P.M.
It's a lot easier today than it
was going through the separation
and the divorce.
>> Really?
>> Easier today?
>> Easier.
Let's be honest.
Right when we first separated
trying to film together, it was
>> That was hard.
>> And I felt bad for both of
you and the kids.
You did a great job
professionally.
But now it seems like a good
working friendship, and are we
off the market?
>> Sounded like you said good to
date.
Better to date today.
>> Well, I -- okay, the first
time I'm talking about this.
I did meet somebody.
Her name is Heather ray young.
>> And is she here?
Is this her?
>> She's not here actually.
She's here in spirit, but she's
going to be meeting up here in a
little bit.
>> Sorry cute girl that I'm
pointing to.
>> And it's super --
>> Lovely.
>> She's great, too.
They're great.
I've been on my own for three
years.
I've been looking and looking.
I finally met Heather.
And you, she's amazing.
She's brilliant, has a huge
heart.
She's killing it.
She did "Selling sunset" on
Netflix.
And she's just a superstar.
She's like the coolest girl I
have ever met.
I just adore her.
>> Question for you, as you move
forward with dating, this is
like an honest -- I'm just
curious.
As you move forward with date,
at what point do you introduce
her to your family?
Is that a -- I'm sure you
protect that.
>> So last night she met my
kids, my mom, my dad, my sister,
the entire family.
>> Tarek, this is happening.
>> Yeah, it's happening.
>> Congratulations.
>> I'm happy for you.
>> I never thought I'd say these
words again, but I do have a
girlfriend.
>> Now here is the big question.
Will you work with a future
girlfriend/wife again?
Would you work with your partner
again on TV?
>> I think the best thing in the
world is to go to work with your
best friend in the world.
I have no idea what the future
holds, but I'm open to it.
>> We just got a bunch of scoop
out here.
>> All right, Heather.
>> You got the juice today.
>> We got the juice.
Has it -- what has it been like
to see the -- we talked -- what
was it a couple months ago,
about Christina when she moved
forward and got -- announced the
wedding and things like that.
No one knew.
How has it been now on the other
side of all of that for you
guys?
>> Which side?
The flip side?
>> The flip side.
>> Good turn.
>> I don't think I totally
understand the question, but --
>> How have you guys been --
>> Scott is on cough medicine.
>> How have you guys been now?
The relationship was it --
>> Oh, we're doing good.
I'm excited for her.
We do have separate lives.
You know, she's having the baby
soon and our kids together are
really excited.
And I'm happy for her.
I'm glad things are working out
well.
>> I love your kids.
It's been so fun watching them
grow up.
That's a fun side for me for the
show.
What's the new show, or the two
new shows.
Start with the digital one.
>> The digital series which I
already shot on hgtv.com.
It's called tarek's flip side.
And it's probably my favorite
project I've ever done because
it shows the world how I live
outside of being the house guy.
And I got to be a lot of fun
stuff with my kids, and I just
loved shooting that.
That's a digital series that's
available now.
And then I just started filming
last week an all new solo series
called "Flipping 101 with
tarek el Moussa."
I come in and help rookie
flippers.
It's really, really, really a
good show.
Going into it, I was like, I
don't know how good a show it's
going to be.
I'm a professional.
I'm going to tell them what to
do.
It's going to be boring.
Like for the pilot episode, I
told them what to do, and I came
back and they did nothing.
>> You think you can do this,
this is going to be good.
>> Like I always like, I guess
500 houses, I must be wrong.
>> Do what you're going to do.
>> These people, it reminds me
of season one of flip or flop.
Their life savingsor the line.
If this goes bad, they're done.
It's a really pun show.
>> This is all of us trying to
do it right.
Tarek, congratulations on
everything.
We're really happy for you.
"Flip or flop" airs tonight at
9:00 on HGTV.
And catch tarek's "Flip side" on
