What condition does Christina Haack have?

Anxiety and mental health diagnosis

  • Christina Haack has spoken publicly about experiencing severe anxiety, describing feeling “at war with my brain” in an interview with People (via House Beautiful).

Public statements about her health

  • In December 2022, she said a quantum biofeedback test showed mercury and lead poisoning, which she believed came from remodeling “gross” houses (Wikipedia).
  • She also stated she had small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) and intended to treat it with herbs and IV treatments (Wikipedia).
  • House Beautiful reported that Christina suspected her breast implants might be contributing to health problems and scheduled consultations about possible removal (House Beautiful).

The implication: While the exact causes remain unverified by traditional medicine, Christina has been open about a cascade of health issues — anxiety, heavy-metal exposure, and gut problems — that she attributes to her years flipping distressed properties.

The catch

The biofeedback test she cited is an alternative diagnostic tool not recognized by most medical boards, so the mercury and lead levels were never confirmed by a standard lab test.

Why did Christina and Tarek split up?

Reasons for divorce separation

  • Christina and Tarek El Moussa divorced in January 2018, but they continued co-hosting Flip or Flop after their split (TV Insider).
  • The couple had been married since 2009 and have two children together (House Beautiful).

Timeline of their marriage and divorce

  • 2009: Married in a private ceremony (TV Insider).
  • 2013: Flip or Flop premieres (source above).
  • 2018: Divorce finalized; continue working together (TV Insider).
  • 2022: Flip or Flop ends after 10 seasons (Wikipedia).

The pattern: The professional partnership outlasted the marriage — a rare arrangement that speaks to their commitment to the show’s success despite personal difficulties.

Who is richer, Tarek or Christina?

Comparison of net worth between Tarek El Moussa and Christina Haack

According to House Beautiful (citing Celebrity Net Worth), Christina’s net worth is estimated around $25 million, while Tarek’s is around $15 million (House Beautiful).

Sources of wealth for both

  • Both derive income from real estate flipping, TV salaries, and endorsements. Christina’s solo shows have added to her earnings (YouTube – Net Worth explainer).
  • A 2023 analysis suggests Christina’s net worth topped $25 million, up from about $15 million in 2017 (YouTube – Net Worth explainer).
Why this matters

The gap may have contributed to their split: when one partner is worth significantly more, power dynamics and co-parenting decisions often get more complicated.

The comparison shows: Christina appears to have the higher net worth among the two, but both have done well enough to rank among HGTV’s wealthiest stars.

Metric Christina Haack Tarek El Moussa
Estimated net worth ~$25 million ~$15 million
Primary income TV shows + real estate TV shows + real estate
Number of solo HGTV series 3 1 (Flipping 101)
Years on TV 2013–present 2013–present

How much did Josh Hall get from Christina?

Details of any divorce settlement

  • No public record of the settlement amount exists. Josh Hall filed for divorce in July 2024, and the details are sealed or unreported (Nicki Swift).
  • Christina and Josh had a private wedding in April 2022 and co-founded a production company, Unbroken Productions (House Beautiful).

The pattern: Without a court filing or official statement, any number floating around is speculation. The lack of transparency on the settlement is typical for high-profile divorces.

What to watch

If Josh Hall proceeds with a claim for spousal support or a share of her post-marriage earnings, the amount could become public through court documents — but so far, nothing has surfaced.

Is Christina Haack in a new relationship?

Current relationship status

  • In January 2025, People reported that Christina was dating Christopher Larocca, CEO and president of Network Connex. The two had been together for about three months (People).
  • This follows her split from Josh Hall, who filed for divorce in July 2024 (People).

Recent dating history

  • Before Josh Hall, Christina was married to Ant Anstead (2018–2021) and Tarek El Moussa (2009–2018) (Wikipedia).

The trade-off: Each new relationship draws intense tabloid attention, making it hard for Christina to keep any romantic life private for long.

What is Christina Haack’s net worth?

Estimated net worth from real estate and TV

  • Estimates vary widely: a 2023 YouTube analysis puts it at over $25 million, while an earlier Nicki Swift clip cited around $12 million (YouTube – Net Worth explainer; Nicki Swift Facebook).
  • House Beautiful reports the $25 million figure from Celebrity Net Worth, but notes that other sources are lower (House Beautiful).

Breakdown of income sources

  • TV salaries alone may exceed $5 million per year, according to some breakdowns (YouTube – Net Worth explainer).
  • Real estate investments, her interior design business, and brand partnerships add to the total (TV Insider).

The catch: None of these estimates are audited or official. Christina’s actual net worth could be higher or lower depending on debt, investments, and settlement payouts.

How many children does Christina Haack have?

Number and names of her children

  • Christina has three children: Taylor (often Taylor Reese) and Brayden (often Brayden James) with Tarek El Moussa, and Hudson London Anstead with Ant Anstead (House Beautiful; People).

Co-parenting arrangements

  • Christina shares custody with Tarek for Taylor and Brayden; she and Ant Anstead have a co-parenting relationship for Hudson (TV Insider).

The implication: With three children from two fathers, co-parenting logistics are complex — especially when both exes are public figures who also have their own shows.

Timeline

  • 2013: Flip or Flop premieres (Wikipedia)
  • 2018: Divorce from Tarek finalized; marries Ant Anstead (TV Insider; Wikipedia)

Quotes

Christina Haack’s public life is a case study in how difficult it is to keep personal health and finances private when you’re a TV star. The verified facts — her birth, her three children, her divorce timelines, her health disclosures — are solid. But the key numbers (net worth, settlement amounts) remain estimates at best. For readers following her story, the clear takeaway is that most of what the tabloids claim should be taken with a grain of salt. For fans of HGTV, her professional arc is more transparent: she built a flipping business from near-collapse during the 2008 recession and turned it into a multi-show career. The choice ahead for Christina is whether to keep sharing so publicly — or to pull back and let the homes and renovations speak for themselves.
