Tarek El Moussa explains secret to coparenting with ex Christina Hall
Tarek El Moussa says that he and ex-wife Christina Hall are friendly after a dramatic divorce, and that they’re able to coparent together by putting a focus on their two children.
Christina Hall joked about her "cheaper & safer" alternative to a husband after vacationing with her kids.
Christina's tropical vacation came weeks after she filed for divorce from her estranged husband, Josh Hall. After returning home, Christina shared a video on her Instagram story of her large suitcase at the bottom of her stairs.
"When you need a man to do the heavy lifting," she wrote, before adding, "Actually, just a really strong assistant. Cheaper & safer choice," including a winking emoji.
Shortly after, Christina shared a video of herself getting a tattoo removed from her wedding ring finger.

Christina and Josh filed their own divorce petitions in July, each citing irreconcilable differences as the reason for the dissolution of their marriage. Josh requested spousal support and asked the court to terminate Christina's ability to receive spousal support from him. Meanwhile, Christina requested the court terminate both of their ability to be awarded spousal support.
"I prefer privacy, especially during something as life-changing as a divorce I did not ask for," Josh wrote on Instagram after the divorce news broke. "I will not publicly badmouth anyone as people have families, friends and others who respect and love them. Unfortunately, the internet is forever."
"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."

Christina has since accused Josh of transferring $35,000 from her bank account into his personal account just one day after the filing.
"I would not have asked him to send himself my money the day after I told him we are getting divorced," Christina stated in the documents.

"I understand that at some point this court may require that I pay some spousal support to Josh and reasonable attorney's fees to his counsel," she stated. "However, it is my belief that this is a simple case with straightforward accounting over a short period of time, any fees and costs should be minimal."
"Like all hard-working mothers, my life revolves around my children and my work. It is my understanding that Josh has his own income, and therefore he should not need any spousal support from me."
