‘Flip Or Flop’ Stars Divorce Update: Christina El Moussa's Main Focus To Be On Children After Split With Tarek
"Flip or Flop" star Christina El Moussa has promised to focus on important things in her life, like her children, amid her ongoing divorce proceeding with Tarek. The main stars of the HGTV show are officially divorcing, just a month after announcing their separation.
On Wednesday, Christina took to Instagram and shared a sweet picture of her daughter, Taylor, standing on a stage alongside other students in front of a cross on the wall.
“A lot going on lately….. But making time for what’s important is what’s really important. #priorities #tayAndbray,” Christina captioned the picture, referring to her two children, Taylor, 6, and son Brayden, 1.
Tarek and Christina reportedly split in May following a gun incident, which resulted in police being called to their home. The former couple announced their separation in December 2016, but claimed that the gun incident was a misunderstanding.
The news of their split gave rise to speculation that the fate of the HGTV show may be in jeopardy. However, a source told Entertainment Tonight on Wednesday that the ex-couple continues to film for the show. Tarek and Christina resumed filming for "Flip Or Flop" after the holiday break last week, and will continue to appear on-screen together, the source reportedly said.
"It's business as usual for them," the source added. "They're committed to their business and to their future together as they work together on the show." The source also said: "They're flipping houses, so [their production schedule] is all dependent on the construction, contractors, et cetera, but for the immediate future, they're still continuing to film."
On Monday, Tarek filed for divorce against Christina, and court documents revealed that the former is requesting joint legal and physical custody of his two children. Along with this, Tarek is requesting spousal support from his estranged wife and asking that Christina pay his attorney's fees. He has also requested that the court's ability to award alimony to her be terminated.
While announcing their split last year, Tarek and Christina revealed that they have been dating other people after they separated but were not involved with anyone during their marriage.
The source also revealed that both Tarek and Christina "have been dating since they separated," and that they've been living separately since the split, as well.
"We have both dated other people following the separation, but neither of us is ready to announce anything in terms of another relationship," Tarek and Christina told People at the time. "We plan to continue our professional life together by being professional, by doing our jobs well, by being prepared and by working hard," the estranged couple added.
