Christina Haack Finalizes Divorce from Josh Hall, Swears Off Marriage

Christina Haack, the renowned HGTV star, has officially concluded her divorce proceedings from her third husband, Josh Hall. The resolution comes nearly ten months after both Haack and Hall independently filed for divorce in July of last year.

"Christina is pleased to confirm that a settlement has been reached through mediation," a representative for Haack stated to Fox News Digital on Saturday. "She extends her sincere appreciation to her attorney, Laura Wasser, and her team for their professional guidance and support throughout the process." Details regarding the specific terms of the settlement between Haack and Hall have not been publicly disclosed.

The "Christina on the Coast" host celebrated the resolution of the divorce on Friday with an Instagram Story post, expressing gratitude to her legal team, particularly Wasser, whom she affectionately referred to as the "disso queen." "You are all a true class act," Haack wrote. "I loved watching you in action and how you handle everything and everyone with class and grace…I appreciate you all beyond words. I have learned so much under your guidance. And I’m grateful to have this behind me. I can’t wait to move on with my life and focus on what’s ahead and all my blessings." Haack later shared a video of herself clinking wineglasses with a friend, indicating a celebratory mood.

A representative for Hall declined to comment on the settlement.

Haack’s marital history includes a previous marriage to Tarek El Moussa, spanning from 2009 to 2018. During their marriage, the couple had two children, Taylor, 14, and Brayden, 9. They also co-starred in the popular HGTV show "Flip or Flop" from 2013 to 2022, showcasing their house-flipping expertise and dynamic partnership.

Following her divorce from El Moussa, Haack married "Wheeler Dealers" star Ant Anstead in December 2018. They welcomed a son, Hudson, 5, in September 2019, before ultimately divorcing in June 2021.

Haack and Hall’s relationship began in March 2021, and they secretly married in October of the same year. The couple later held a formal wedding ceremony in Hawaii.

In July, both Haack and Hall filed for divorce, citing irreconcilable differences as the reason for the dissolution of their marriage. Hall requested spousal support and sought to terminate Haack’s ability to receive spousal support from him. Haack, in turn, requested the court to terminate both of their abilities to be awarded spousal support, arguing in a court filing that Hall "should not need" spousal support due to his own independent income.

The divorce proceedings were not without their share of public drama. Following the initial announcement of the divorce, Hall expressed his desire for privacy on Instagram, stating, "I prefer privacy, especially during something as life-changing as a divorce I did not ask for. I will not publicly badmouth anyone as people have families, friends and others who respect and love them. Unfortunately, the internet is forever. We are real humans, this is our life and I am not here to entertain people I don’t know with my private matters. Those details will be handled fairly behind closed doors with our respective counsels in due time. Those who know each of us, know who we are."

However, despite Hall’s initial plea for privacy, the split between Haack and Hall became increasingly contentious, with both parties reportedly engaging in social media exchanges that were perceived as critical of each other.

Prior to filing for divorce, Haack and Hall had filmed footage for the HGTV show "The Flip Off" alongside Tarek and his second wife, Heather Rae El Moussa. However, Hall only appeared in the premiere episode of the show due to his separation from Haack.

During a February episode of "The Flip Off," Haack provided an update on their settlement negotiations, alleging that Hall had continued to make her "financial offers" and "wants to retire off me." She expressed regret over not having obtained a prenuptial agreement, stating, "Honestly, if I would’ve really understood the repercussions of all of this, I would’ve gotten a prenup or I would’ve never married him," according to People.

In a March appearance on Sirius XM’s "Jeff Lewis Live," Haack mentioned that she and Hall had "mediation next month, hopefully." However, when asked if they were close to settling, she responded, "No. I don’t know. Hopefully. It has not been close, but you know, mediation’s good."

Since their split, both Haack and Hall have seemingly moved on with their personal lives.

In January, Hall posted a birthday tribute on social media to model Stephanie Gabrys on his Instagram, seemingly confirming their relationship. "Happy Birthday to this real life [angel emoji]," he captioned a photo of Gabrys sitting on his lap.

Haack has also moved on with boyfriend Christopher Larocca, CEO and president of Network Connex, and has been sharing glimpses of their relationship with her followers on social media.

Following the finalization of her divorce from Hall, Haack has publicly stated that she is swearing off marriage. This declaration marks a significant shift for the HGTV star, who has been married three times in the past. It remains to be seen whether this decision will impact her future relationships and personal life. The focus for Haack now seems to be on her career, her children, and her new relationship with Larocca, as she embarks on a fresh chapter in her life. The details of the settlement and the future projects of both Christina Haack and Josh Hall remain subjects of considerable interest to fans and industry observers alike.
