Christina Haack and Tarek El Moussa have been bringing celeb relationship drama to HGTV since 2013 once they had been nonetheless a bickering married couple on Flip or Flop, and the drama continues as we speak. Nevertheless, on their new present The Flip Off, which simply premiered on the 2025 TV schedule, Haack is bickering with third husband Josh Corridor. He doesn’t final lengthy, although, as the primary episode, aptly titled “The Breakup,” reveals Haack asserting that she and Corridor are divorcing. It seems neither El Moussa nor his spouse Heather Rae had been too stunned by the announcement, and Haack defined how they’d seen it coming.
The Flip Off had a clumsy premise to start with, pitting exes Christina Haack and Tarek El Moussa in opposition to one another in a house-flipping competitors with their respective spouses to see who may flip a much bigger revenue. Issues rapidly went off the rails, with Josh Corridor even saying on digital camera, “My spouse’s pissing me off,” and Haack was single once more earlier than the top of the episode. Seems the El Moussas had been aware of a number of the BTS particulars of the Halls’ marriage, as Christina instructed Folks:
I had been speaking to each of them about it. They had been conscious that there was points, and it’s one thing that we needed to sidebar in, with reference to how all of us had been going to deal with even filming with Josh as a result of there was already some issue there. So that they weren’t stunned and so they had been additionally very, very supportive.
It is sensible that Christina Haack must preserve the El Moussas within the loop of what was occurring together with her and Josh Corridor, merely on account of the truth that they had been going into enterprise collectively. Nevertheless, Haack made it sound like bother had been brewing even earlier than they determined to do The Flip Off.
I additionally received the impression from that first episode that Josh Corridor was in no way a fan of his spouse’s pleasant relationship together with her first ex-husband. Christina Haack and Tarek El Moussa share two kids, although, so I’d suppose pleasant co-parenting is far most well-liked to the on-set tirades of their post-divorce Flip or Flop days. El Moussa spoke to that when discussing the Halls’ cut up, saying:
Actually, her well-being is essential to us. Not simply due to her however due to the youngsters, too, proper? In the end we’re all household, and it’s exhausting to see her undergo a difficult scenario. [Christina,] I do know that you simply guys did work exhausting, or YOU labored exhausting, you guys tried to work by way of it. I do know you actually put within the effort, and in the long run it simply wasn’t an excellent place for her or the youngsters. I feel they’re all in a greater place now.
I really like this world the place Tarek El Moussa can sit subsequent to Heather Rae and categorical how a lot they each care about his ex-wife and the way necessary it’s for his or her entire household that Christina Haack is OK. Followers beloved it too, as not solely had been they celebrating Josh Corridor’s exit halfway by way of “The Breakup,” they confirmed assist for Haack and appreciation for the way in which El Moussa took duty for his wrongdoings in opposition to her.
Actually just a few years in the past, I don’t know if I’d have believed that Christina Haack and Tarek El Moussa may get to such a mature house with one another. I’m undoubtedly extra stunned by that than the El Moussas had been about Josh Corridor getting the boot.
