Josh Hall<\/strong><\/a>, the estranged husband of Christina Hall<\/strong><\/a>, broke his silence on the former couple\u2019s divorce. While he had previously posted photos<\/a> on social media, Josh had yet to officially acknowledge their breakup.<\/p>\n \u201cI prefer privacy, especially during something as life changing as a divorce I did not ask for. I will not publicly badmouth anyone as people have families, friends and others who respect and love them. Unfortunately, the internet is forever,\u201d Josh, 44, wrote via Instagram<\/a> on Friday, August 2, alongside a photo of himself lying next to his dog.<\/p>\n The Los Angeles realtor continued, \u201cWe are real humans, this is our life and I am not here to entertain people I don\u2019t 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.\u201d<\/p>\n Christina, 41, had previously opened up about their split and slammed her ex<\/a> one week after she filed for divorce on July 17<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u201cOver here waiting for the typical hired PR speech of \u2018how I was blindsided and how I\u2019m working on myself and taking time to heal at her ranch,\u2019\u201d the HGTV star wrote in a statement via her Instagram Stories on July 25. Meanwhile, I\u2019m over here not as nice and quiet as I used to be.\u201d<\/p>\n In the following slide, Christina added, \u201cI have worked my ass off to build this life for myself and my children, and anyone who would try and take what they do not deserve\/what they did NOT work for should be ashamed. An insecure man with a large ego can sure try and derail you \u2013 but, \u2018still I rise.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n She continued, \u201cFor those that aren\u2019t aware \u2026 Divorces do not happen overnight \u2026 [and] there is always a breaking point. This one is personal.\u201d<\/p>\n Christina and Josh\u2019s divorce seemingly became messy as the former couple bickered about finances. On July 24, Entertainment Tonight<\/em><\/a> reported that the Christina on the Coast<\/em> star claimed that Josh had transferred a hefty sum of cash<\/a> out of her personal bank account without her knowledge.<\/p>\n \u201cJosh was able to divert over $35,000 of my separate property rental income into his account,\u201d Christina alleged in the court documents obtained by the outlet. \u201cI 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.\u201d<\/p>\n On Wednesday, August 1, Josh posted a photo of a sculpture that spelled out the word \u201chope,\u201d and the following night, Christina clapped back, mocking the message. The Flip or Flop<\/em> alum reshared the photo on her own Instagram Story and implied that she had offered Josh \u201cmillions\u201d of dollars in the divorce.<\/p>\n \u201cI \u2018HOPE\u2019 she pays me millions more than what she\u2019s already offered me.\u2019\u201d Christina wrote.<\/p>\n Josh reportedly disputed the claim and a source told Page Six<\/em><\/a> that Christina \u201cdidn\u2019t offer him millions\u201d and claimed the exes \u201chadn\u2019t even started negotiations.\u201d<\/p>\n However, a separate source that is allegedly close to Christina explained to the outlet that the Christina in the Country<\/em> star had offered Josh a \u201cseven-figure settlement,\u201d<\/a> but he \u201cdeclined\u201d and said that the offer was \u201ctoo low.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
