Tarek El Moussa and ex-wife Christina Hall’s coparenting Christmas will look a little different this year.
At Kathy Hilton’s DirectTV Christmas Party on Tuesday, December 10, Tarek’s wife, Heather Rae El Moussa, exclusively told Us Weekly that the couple will be spending Christmas Eve with Hall, 41.
“We usually have [Tarek and Christina’s kids on] Christmas day. She has them [on] Christmas Eve, but [this year] I think we’re gonna spend Christmas Eve together,” Heather, 37, said. “[For] one of the first times.”
Tarek, 43, shares daughter Taylor, 14, and son Brayden, 9, with Hall, while he and Heather share son Tristan, 22 months. Hall, meanwhile, is also mom to son Hudson, 5, whom she shares with ex-husband Ant Anstead.
While their marriage didn’t work out, Tarek and Hall are still in business together. Their new HGTV show, The Flip Off — which also stars Heather — is slated to premiere in 2025.

“Oh, my Gosh, it is so good,” Heather told Us of the show, which will pit Hall against Heather and Tarek as they complete a series of home renovation challenges. “One of us wins. We can’t tell you who.”
Tarek added, “There’s a lot of ‘oh s—’ moments that people would never expect that when they tune in, they’re gonna find out what I’m talking about.”
Tarek and Heather Rae El Moussa have Christina Hall’s back amid her divorce from Joshua Hall. “We support her,” Heather, 36, told E! News in a joint interview with Tarek, 42, published on Tuesday, July 23. “[Christina] will get through this,” Tarek added. He continued: “Life’s tough, s—t happens. We got one shot at life […]
Christina’s estranged husband, Joshua Hall, was also slated to be on The Flip Off, but production resumed without him after he and Christina split in July. In November, Christina told Entertainment Tonight that she “did not enjoy filming with” Josh, 44, prior to their separation.
“Having split up made this so much easier and so much better in every way. The show would have been hard to film,” she said, noting that Josh wasn’t fond of her “dynamic” with Tarek. “Some would call it ‘flirty.’ It’s more, like, a sibling-type thing.”
Christina also claimed that Josh was “insecure,” which put “a damper” on the project.

“I feel like I was not shining as bright to try and not make him feel emasculated, but who wants to live like that?” she said.
Former spouses Christina Hall and Tarek El Moussa have come a long way over time. “I feel like [Tarek and my husband Josh’s relationship] gotten definitely better throughout the years,” Hall, 40, exclusively told Us Weekly on Tuesday, July 2, while discussing the new season of Christina on the Coast. “All of us are at […]
As Christina navigates her third divorce, Tarek and Heather have her back.
“We’ve been supporting her since we found out,” Selling Sunset alum Heather told Us on Tuesday. “We’re just here for her, no matter what she needs. [We’re] raising the kids together and just keeping them happy. And she’s good. She’s in a good place.”
Tarek echoed the sentiments, saying, “She’s doing well. Strong girl. She is a tough cookie.”
Christina is determined to wrap up her divorce proceedings with Josh sooner rather than later. Last month, she hired powerhouse attorney Laura Wasser to expedite the process. A source exclusively told Us at the time that Christina “decided to go with the best divorce attorney out there to try and wrap this up quickly and fairly.”
Wasser has previously represented high-profile clients including Angelina Jolie, Kim Kardashian, Ryan Reynolds and Jennifer Garner.
