Blended households are one thing, aren’t they? A gaggle that is aware of rather a lot (or, if a current chat is to be believed, perhaps not a lot) about such a factor could be the celebrities of The Flip Off (which survived a summer time of HGTV cancellations and was simply renewed for Season 2), Christina Haack, Tarek El Moussa and his second spouse, Heather Rae El Moussa. The Promoting Sundown star shared a video not too long ago that reveals the group making an attempt to determine how their children are associated, and whereas I didn’t have this convo on my 2025 bingo card, their questions are definitely truthful ones.
To be completely truthful to the Haack/El Moussa/Anstead clan, theirs is a comparatively twisty household combo. Christina Haack not too long ago went by way of a (very contentious, costly and public) divorce from her third husband, Josh Corridor, after first being married to and divorced from Tarek El Moussa (they share children Taylor and Brayden), after which being wed to Ant Anstead (with whom she shares son Hudson). El Moussa married Heather Rae in 2021, and so they have a son, Tristan.
Fortunately, not solely have have Christina, Tarek and Heather been ready to determine co-parenting the youngsters (together with Haack and Anstead mending their as soon as damaged fences for the good thing about Hudson), however the trio has really turn into shut sufficient that they’re in a position to work on the favored home flipping competitors, The Flip Off to fantastically chaotic success.
However a current video from Heather, which was reposted to Christina’s Instagram Tales, reveals that they won’t be fully clear on how everybody’s associated now. They have been hanging out with Christina’s new boyfriend, Chris Larocca, resulting in this change:
- Chris: [to Tarek] So, with Hudson, what’s your relationship? Are you his ex-stepdad? Ex-uncle?
- Tarek: Uncle? Am I her brother? That is really an excellent query.
- Christina: Wait, wait, wait…Brayden’s his half-brother and also you’re his half-dad…half step-dad [laughs]. Half ex-step-dad?
Wow. Even contemplating all of the ins and outs of who has children with whom and such, it is a wild dialogue. It continued backwards and forwards till Heather (who was the one recording it) seemed on the digital camera and requested:
- Heather: Ought to we ChatGPT this, you guys? Can anybody inform us what Tarek could be to Hudson?
- Tarek: It is a actual dilemma, really.
- Heather: That is what tequila does. I want to essentially suppose this by way of…
I imply, actually, if everybody right here has had tequila, that explains a variety of this! From my fundamental understanding of the timeline of marriages and births, as a result of Christina and Tarek have been married first, he and Hudson (once more, he’s her son along with her second husband, Ant) have been by no means technically associated, even by way of marriage. Although, in fact, Hudson is half-siblings with Taylor and Brayden (all of them share Christina as their mother), whereas Taylor and Brayden are additionally half-siblings with Tristan (all of them share Tarek as their dad).
See what you are able to do sober?! I even have the wonders of caffeine on my aspect, however I assume that’s a subject for one more article.
At any fee, I can solely assume that the HGTV stars do know precisely how everybody of their familial circle is said (or not) to one another, however a bit of little bit of boozy enjoyable and a direct query merely threw them off for a bit.
