Christina Haack and New Love Christopher Larocca Share Romantic Kiss in LA

Christina Haack just confirmed her new romance without saying a word.

On January 30th in Los Angeles, the HGTV star was snapped locking lips with telecommunications CEO Christopher Larocca during a dinner outing. This occurred about two weeks after speculation about their relationship began. While waiting for their car, they openly displayed affection by engaging in public displays of affection (PDA). After the valet brought their vehicle, the businessman courteously opened the door for his date, and then they left together in the car.

For their evening adventure, the two opted for a relaxed style. The “Flip Off” actor donned a black blouse and slim-fit jeans, completed with stylish strappy heels, whereas Christopher chose a black long-sleeved shirt along with corresponding trousers and boots.

Initiated speculation about their romantic relationship on January 14th at the Los Angeles International Airport, when they were pictured together, approximately half a year following Christina’s divorce filing from her husband Josh Hall, who they had been married to for over two years.

On the show “The Flip Off,” an interior designer discusses her past relationship issues involving her first ex-husband, Tarek El Moussa, and his current wife, Heather Rae El Moussa, who is also known from the series “Selling Sunset.

Christina expressed to her co-star ex that Tarek doesn’t seem to appreciate her during the January 29 premiere of their HGTV series. She clarified that he often labels her as cocky, but she believes it’s a misunderstanding because she’s simply hardworking and not arrogant at all.

The celebrity from Christina on the Coast also mentioned that she had never desired divorce. She further stated, “I’m the sole member of my family to ever experience divorce.” Therefore, she feels it is more secure to be in a relationship again, however, she discovered that wasn’t safe either.

Presently, regarding her current stance on dating, Christina shared with TopMob News’ Will Marfuggi that she’s “aiming to approach things differently.

And she also isn’t ruling out marrying a fourth time one day.

She shared with Us Weekly in a January 10th interview that her affection for love is everlasting. She also hinted that she might remarry someday, but not for quite some time yet.

Moving forward in my personal life after the separation from Christina, I took the step of making my relationship with Stephanie Gabrys public on her birthday, January 13th, by posting a heartfelt tribute on Instagram.

On his Instagram story, Josh wrote, “Wishing you a wonderful 35th birthday! You’re like an angel in reality,” accompanied by a picture of the model snuggled up on his lap, near a cozy fire pit.

On his Instagram story, Josh wrote, “Wishing a happy 35th birthday to this heaven-sent beauty,” accompanied by a picture of her snuggling on his lap near a fireplace.

Look back at Christina and Tarek’s family tree..

Christina and Tarek welcomed their first child together on Sept. 22, 2010.

After their divorce, they both took on the role of joint parents for their daughter. This child, as Christina put it, possesses an old soul that exhibits a mature understanding of life’s complexities one moment, only to revert back to a carefree, childlike state the next.

She noted that Taylor’s strongest skill lies in engaging anyone, no matter the location, in meaningful conversations. In addition, she described Taylor as lively, intelligent, physically active, radiantly happy, and constantly surprising us.

Christina and Tarek welcomed their second child together on Aug. 20, 2015.

Besides their eldest child Taylor, they’ve both been working on raising Brayden following their divorce. Previously, Tarek has referred to their son as a bundle of energy and a boy with the kindest soul and the largest heart.

As I pour over each moment with him, I find it challenging to express just how radiant his presence makes mine. Yet, I am profoundly grateful for every day that I get to call myself his and Tay’s father. Witnessing his growth and development fills me with an unparalleled joy, making me the proudest and happiest dad one could ever be.

Approximately one year following her separation with Tarek, Christina began dating Ant, a British television host, in October 2017. They made their relationship public in January 2018 – the same month that Christina’s divorce from Tarek was finalized. The couple got married at their Newport Beach home in California on December 22, 2018, in a winter-themed ceremony.

Christina and her partner Ant, who shares daughter Amelie and son Archie with his previous spouse Louise Storey, became parents to their first child together, a son named Hudson, in the year 2019.

The pair had been wed for under two years when they announced their split in September 2020. Nine months after that, their divorce became official.

Since the split, Ant has moved on with actress Renée Zellweger.

On September 6, 2019, Christina and Ant were blessed with a newborn son. The little one came into the world weighing approximately 7 lbs 7 oz and stretching to a length of 19.5 inches.

Despite both parties reaching an agreement on joint legal and physical custody of Hudson when their divorce was concluded in June 2021, Ant later filed for full custody in April 2022, citing court documents that suggest his ex only spends approximately nine full days a month with their child.

In the next December, a mutual agreement was made between the former partners regarding custody. According to court papers acquired by TopMob News, they will continue to share both legal and physical custody of Hudson.

On the Fourth of July in 2019, Tarek encountered a cast member from ‘Selling Sunset’ at a marina in Newport Beach, California. Their boats were docked side by side, and they crossed paths while celebrating on their vessels. Towards the end of that month, photos emerged of them kissing on a yacht. In August, Tarek publicly acknowledged their relationship to TopMob News, stating, “I never thought I’d use this phrase again, but Heather Rae is my girlfriend, officially.

In the heart of summer 2020, I found myself taking that all-important step forward with my beloved, sealing our commitment in July. Then, under the golden California sun on October 23, 2021, we officially became husband and wife, exchanging heartfelt vows amidst a beautifully romantic outdoor ceremony nestled near Santa Barbara.

Heather frequently describes herself as Tarek’s “extra mother” to his two older children, Taylor and Brayden. Previously, she told TopMob News that she feels like she has two children of her own. She takes care of Tarek’s kids half the time, and they essentially spend 50% of their lives with her. She proudly calls herself a wonderful bonus mom and loves them dearly as if they were her own.

On January 31, 2023, Tarek and Heather joyfully welcomed their newborn son into the world. At birth, he weighed a healthy 7 lbs and 7 oz.

According to Heather, it was intended that he should be called Tristan, but instead, his parents ended up naming him Tarek.

His middle name is a nod to Heather’s dad.

Following her separation from her second spouse, Ant, in the year 2021, Christina started seeing Josh. They made their relationship known to the public in July of that same year. Christina disclosed that they had been together for several stable months prior to this revelation.

As the star of the show Flip or Flop shared, she encountered Josh, a real estate agent licensed for the job, during that particular spring season. At this point in her life, she was no longer in a state of panic or survival instinct, and had instead decided to step away from social circles, engaged a spiritual guide, and partook in a mind-altering substance derived from the Bufo toad, all with the intent of rejuvenating her mental state.

Christina and Josh got engaged that September and tied the knot on Oct. 6, 2021.

It wasn’t until July 15, 2024, when Josh filed for divorce, that the specific wedding date of the couple became known. He stated that the reasons for their separation were irreconcilable differences.

On July 11, 2024, during an episode of “Christina on the Coast,” I found myself utterly captivated as she revealed the transformation of her childhood home. Up until then, she had mostly kept her roots under wraps, providing mere glimpses of her parents in their role as grandparents.

Last year, I joyfully expressed on Instagram that my family and Tarek’s gather together to witness Taylor’s enchanting performances at her school’s traditional Christmas concert.

As an ardent admirer, I’ve always maintained that this is simply marvelous. I’ve noticed that quite a few divorced pairs (even Tarek’s parents among them) do the same thing, and honestly, it makes life so much more manageable for everyone. To top it off, Taylor’s eyes sparkle with joy whenever we gather in unison to cheer her on.

While Josh gained public attention due to his connection with Christina, his sisters had already become famous during the 2000s.

Stacie, often referred to as “Stacie the Bartender” by some fans, was well-known for being the recipient of Spencer Pratt’s advances on the show “The Hills”. She also made an appearance on “Vanderpump Rules”, notably in season three where she served as one of Scheana Shay’s bridesmaids.

Regarding Jessica, not only was she a former Playboy model, but she also shared the screen with her best friend Kendra Wilkinson on various shows such as The Hills, The Girls Next Door, Kendra, Kendra on Top, and Kendra Sells Hollywood.

 

In simpler terms, Angelique – Tarek’s older sister – owns Latitude 33 Hair Artistry located in Anaheim, California. On an episode of Flip or Flop from 2014, she bought one of the homes that Tarek and Christina had flipped. In 2019, she collaborated on a digital series with her HGTV co-host brother.

Tarek El Moussa’s mom, Dominique, is no longer with his father, whose identity remains private. At present, she is married to Robert, who affectionately calls her “my life’s love” on Instagram.

Instead of saying “Tarek has never shared his father’s name,” you could rephrase it as “Tarek hasn’t revealed the name of his father.” In the November 2017 Facebook post, he acknowledged that his elder or older man had reached the age of 70 years old.

The bond between a parent, particularly a father, and their kids is invaluable. I was fortunate enough to have a nurturing and inspiring father who instilled in me the belief that I could conquer any challenge life threw at me. This photo captures our family celebrating his birthday. Honestly, I wouldn’t be where I am today without my dad’s encouragement. I plan to share with my own children all the wisdom he’s imparted upon me.

In an interview with Country Living, Tarek shared that his father was brought up as a Catholic in Lebanon and later in Egypt in the Middle East. It was during his teenage years in Europe that he encountered Tarek’s mother, who hails from Belgium.
