Christina Haack (formerly known as Christina Hall) is feeling like her old self again! The HGTV star shared that she had officially changed her last name back amid her ongoing divorce from Josh Hall.
“Officially a Haack,” Christina, 41, wrote alongside a photo of the legal paperwork on January 25. “Identifying as only married twice. Time to update the Wikipedia.”
The Flip Off star married Josh, 44, in 2022, but two years later, they decided to part ways. Josh was the first to file for divorce on July 15, 2024, and Christina followed suit hours later. It didn’t take long for the divorce to become messy and a little over a week later, the Christina in the Country host claimed that Josh had diverted “over $35,000” from the bank account she used for her rental properties without her knowledge.
“I am asking for Josh to account for the funds taken and return them to me as those funds are specifically used to pay any loans, obligations, property taxes, insurance, and maintenance for these rental properties,” the court documents read, per Entertainment Tonight.
In response, Josh claimed that he had used the money to pay for expenses relating to the rental properties and stated he had previously been responsible for the bills connected with that home. Christina ultimately agreed to pay Josh $100,000 to use for his legal expenses.
Josh eventually broke his silence regarding his split from the Christina on the Coast star via Instagram in August 2024.
“I will not publicly badmouth anyone as people have families, friends and others who respect and love them. Unfortunately, the internet is forever,” Josh wrote on August 3, 2024. “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.”
Less than a week later, Christina gave fans an update of her own via her Instagram Stories.
“I finally have my appetite back. I’m exercising again. My kids are happy and our house feels like home. Those poor kids adore me … anyone who knows us for real knows this and that’s what matters,” Christina wrote on August 9, 2024. “I’ve had some of my best nights with friends recently … laughed more than I have in forever. Work is going so good it feels like a dream. I have a life coach.”
The former spouses have continued to throw digs at one another on social media, including Christina documenting the removal of an infinity symbol tattooed on her wrist that was inspired by her relationship with the Texas real estate agent.
“4th times a charm (when it comes to tattoo removal),” Christina wrote alongside a video of the tattoo removal she shared via Instagram Stories on January 21. “Burns so good.”
She set the video to Sabrina Carpenter’s song “Feather,” which is about how much lighter someone can feel after ending a relationship.
