Christina Haack talks candidly about filming her soon-to-be-released series Flip Off with ex Josh Hall.
The HGTV star, 41, shared Party tonight that it was difficult filming her new show – in which she stars with ex Tarek El Moussa and his wife Heather Rae El Moussa – alongside Hall, with whom she split earlier this year.
“When someone is insecure in your favor and doesn’t like to see you win, it really gets in the way,” Haack told the paper. “I feel like I didn’t shine that bright, trying to keep him from feeling screwed over. But who wants to live like that?”
“It wasn’t fun, to be honest,” she added. “I didn’t enjoy filming with him, so the split made it, to be honest, a lot easier and a lot better in every way.”

Haack also said ET if Hall hadn’t left the series early in the middle of their split, “it would have been difficult to film.”
She also claimed Hall was “jealous” of her ex-husband Tarek, 43, with whom she shares children Taylor, 13, and Brayden, eight.
“[Hall] he doesn’t like our dynamic, because Tarek and I have our own dynamic, and some might call it ‘flirting,’” the reality star explained. “… It’s like a brother and sister to me.”
Haack also said ET that her breakup with Hall “wasn’t news” to Tarek, as she had been “telling him things were bad for at least a year,” or “probably 18 months.”

For his part, said Tarek ET that he also noticed a change during the filming of the show.
“She was going through it at first, you know, but she bounces back really quickly,” the ex Flip or flop said the star. “You can just tell that her energy is back. She is happy. She is excited about life, she is doing well.”
In the midst of Hall’s departure from the show, rumors began to circulate that Haack’s other ex, Ant Anstead, would be joining the show.
When asked if fans will see him appear on Flip OffTarek teased, “I think you will.”

Hall filed for divorce from Haack on July 15 after nearly three years of marriage.
The former Austin-based real estate professional cited “irreconcilable differences” and sought spousal support from the HGTV star. However, she responded with her own legal filing a week later, asking that neither be allowed to seek spousal support.
After filing, Hall opened up about the couple’s divorce on Instagram, saying in part, “I prefer privacy, especially during something as life-changing as a divorce I didn’t ask for.”
He added: “I will not insult anyone publicly because people have families, friends and others who respect and love them.”
Flip Off The premiere is scheduled for 2025.
