On-air spats, tabloid chatter, and high-profile court filings.
Christina Hall's relationships with her famous exes are far from simple.
Christina Hall has seen her love life make headlines since she was
married to her former "Flip or Flop" co-star, Tarek El Moussa. Of course,
their relationship became tabloid fodder once they announced their separation in 2016,
but the former couple continue to co-parent their two children, Taylor and Brayden. Despite their
public split, Hall and El Moussa decided to continue filming their hit HGTV series
together. In a February 2017 segment on ABC's "Good Morning America," Hall said,
Hall's "GMA" interview came just one month after El Moussa officially filed for divorce. At the
time, the former couple was filming Season 7 of "Flip or Flop," and Hall explained,
"Tarek and I, we met at work,
so we worked together before we ever started dating, and it's our normal."
El Moussa expressed a similar sentiment while appearing on "The Dr. Drew Podcast," saying,
"I mean, I'm not gonna lie, we're not gonna say it was easy."
Despite Tarek El Moussa and Christina Hall's attempts to work together while setting their
personal drama aside, this was easier said than done. Over the years, reports have surfaced
about their on-set squabbles, and their tension was often apparent just by watching the former
couple's interactions on "Flip or Flop." But the real shocker occurred in July 2021,
when TMZ revealed that an explosive fight had taken place during filming.
Sources claimed El Moussa got angry as he didn't like the way his ex-wife motioned
to him to resume filming. El Moussa reportedly shouted that his fiancé,
and now-wife, Heather Rae Young, was more attractive and wealthier
than Hall. He allegedly proceeded to call his ex-wife a "washed-up loser," and said
he should be credited for her career. He also suggested that everyone thought Hall was crazy.
The source told TMZ that El Moussa's anger likely resulted from Hall's admission to smoking toad
venom prior to meeting her latest partner, which El Moussa allegedly found concerning.
A week later, a source told People that El Moussa felt bad about the altercation, saying,
"You literally shut down every design idea I had."
In March 2022, it was confirmed that "Flip or
Flop" was ending after 10 seasons. At the time, El Moussa told People,
Hall shared similar comments, telling the publication,
Following her split from El Moussa, Hall started dating TV host Ant Anstead in
October 2017. The pair tied the knot in December 2018 and welcomed their son,
Hudson, in September 2019. But just one year later, in September 2020,
Hall announced their separation, writing in a since-deleted Instagram post,
By May 2021, Hall had officially filed for divorce from Anstead, and it was revealed that
the cracks in their marriage began to show after Hudson's birth. At the time, a source told People,
Although Christina Hall was the first to break the news of her separation from Ant Anstead,
the "Wheeler Dealers" host didn't remain quiet for long. In December 2020,
Anstead gave his first interview since the split, telling People,
However, this was not the first time Anstead had alluded to the breakup not
being his doing. Sharing a selfie taken with Hall, Anstead wrote on Instagram,
Following the split, Anstead decided to enroll in an online course for people
recovering from breakups, and a faith-based wellness retreat,
which helped him take better care of himself. As he told People,
In the months following their separation,
Christina Hall and Ant Anstead appeared to remain amicable at first. In August 2021,
a source even told Us Weekly that Hall and Anstead made good co-parents, adding,
However, People confirmed in April 2022 that Anstead had filed for sole custody of their son,
Hudson, suggesting that any smooth co-parenting arrangement had ended.
TMZ shared details of Anstead's temporary custody filing against Hall. According to the documents,
Anstead claimed that Hall had only spent, on average, nine days per month with their young
son over the previous 20 months. He also claimed that, on one occasion, Hall had dropped Hudson
off to him with a terrible sunburn and that she allegedly didn't seem concerned about it.
Anstead also alleged that Hall once returned Hudson without revealing that her family had
contracted COVID-19. According to the TV presenter, Hall's omission caused a
production his partner, Renée Zellweger, was working on at the time to be put on
hold. Anstead also cited Hall's revelation that she had been smoking hallucinogenic
toad venom as concerning. Hall responded to Anstead's claims, telling Us Weekly,
The exes made headlines again due to Anstead's claim that Hall was exploiting their son by
including him in promotional posts on social media. According to Us Weekly,
Anstead alleged in a court filing,
In response to Ant Anstead's many allegations about her,
Christina Hall denounced the claims and questioned his motives. In court documents
obtained by Us Weekly, filed on September 27, 2022, the "Christina on the Coast"
star said she was surprised by Anstead's continued claims against her, explaining,
The former "Flip or Flop" star also accused Anstead of filing his latest declaration
only to make disparaging statements about her. Discussing her preference for privacy, Hall added,
In October 2022, Hall revealed that she was tired of the drama, writing on Instagram,
In spite of her ongoing drama with ex-husband Ant Anstead,
Christina Hall quickly found love again with realtor Joshua Hall. After dating
for approximately a year, the pair tied the knot in April 2022. However,
any wedded bliss was seemingly interrupted when a very public fight broke out.
After announcing the end of "Flip or Flop," reports surfaced that Tarek El Moussa,
Christina Hall, and their new partners had gotten into an altercation. While attending their
daughter's soccer game, El Moussa was reportedly seen stopping an argument between his new wife,
"Selling Sunset" star Heather Rae Young, and his ex-wife, Christina. According to the Daily Mail,
El Moussa was later seen arguing with Christina's new husband,
Joshua, and the coach allegedly had to pull the two men apart.
Tensions were clearly running high after Christina's other ex-husband, Ant Anstead,
filed for full custody of their son, Hudson. Additionally, the spat followed a scary incident
involving Tarek and Christina's son, Brayden, who had been rushed to the ER for an emergency
appendectomy. Christina seemingly tried to smooth things over with an Instagram post, writing,
"Our primary focus is, and always will be, our kids."
These days, Christina Hall isn't on the best of terms with Ant Anstead amid his accusations
against her. As for her relationship with Tarek El Moussa, it appears as though the exes just
try their best to get along for the kids. However, an interesting bromance appears to
have developed between Christina's exes, Ant and Tarek. The two men allegedly hang out outside of
their co-parenting relationship with Christina, with a source telling Us Weekly in April 2022,
It's also been revealed that Tarek and Ant went car racing together in Arizona. While
it's unclear how Christina feels about the newfound friendship,
it's presumably more than a little awkward for her.
