I totally get that I’m one of the few people around here who genuinely likes to gossip about the stars of HGTV shows. What can I say? Watching HGTV relaxes me and I enjoy some of the personalities on that network. I’ve paid attention to Christina and Tarek El Moussa’s situation over the years – they’re the hosts/flippers of Flip or Flop, which has now been franchised out in other cities. Tarek and Christina split in 2016, and only finalized their divorce this year. They still do Flip or Flop together (and it’s surprisingly watchable), and I have a feeling that they’re still very financially entangled with each other. Plus, they have joint custody of their kids, Taylor and Braden. Christina began dating soon after the split, and she settled down with Ant Anstead, host of Wheeler Dealers, pretty quickly. Well,Christina and Ant got married over the holiday weekend!

The star of HGTV’s “Flip or Flop” married Ant Anstead, host of the car series “Wheeler Dealers,” over the weekend at their Newport Beach, California home. The two told their 70 guests they would be watching the Newport Beach Christmas Boat Parade and surprised them by exchanging vows.

El Moussa was previously married to Tarek El Moussa. The two split in 2016 and finalized their divorce in 2018. They are parents to two children Taylor, 8, and 3-year-old, Braden. Anstead has two children of his own, Amelie, 15 and 12-year-old Archie.

I’m a little bit surprised that Christina would jump into another marriage so soon after her divorce. I’ve been watching the post-divorce season of Flip or Flop, and let me tell you – Christina and Tarek are still incredibly involved in each other’s lives, and it’s not just about co-parenting or being business partners. I believe Tarek is still in love with her, and it felt like he was still holding out hope that they might reunite. Maybe that’s why she got married? To really tell Tarek that there’s no chance for reconciliation?

People Magazine had some exclusive details on Christina’s Ines Di Santo wedding gown – go here to read. Apparently, the lace sleeves were added to an existing design, and then the sleeves were “detachable,” and Christina took them off for the party. Which… is very weird, but whatever.
