Christina Haack and Tarek El Moussa got divorced while filming ‘Flip or Flop’ together

Tarek El Moussa and Christina Haack married in 2009 and had two children together, 11-year-old daughter Taylor and 6-year-old son Brayden. The couple launched their reality HGTV show Flip or Flop in 2013 and continued filming for 10 seasons, including after they divorced in 2018. 

In July 2021, TMZ reported an alarming incident on set, in which El Moussa went on a verbal tirade comparing Haack to his new love, Selling Sunset star Heather Rae Young, and calling the Netflix star “hotter and richer” than his ex.

Although they had some difficult moments throughout their divorce, Haack told People in April 2020 that the coronavirus pandemic helped her and El Moussa get on the same page and co-parent peacefully. 

“Tarek and I split four years ago. That’s a long time,” she explained. “When there are tough times like these, all of a sudden we’re totally a unified front and talk and email multiple times a day.”
