Christina Hall is kicking off her sexy single era by offering an olive branch to one of her three ex-husbands, Ant Anstead. The move just happened to come soon after the “Christina in the Country” star suddenly found herself partnerless ahead of the premiere of her new HGTV series, “The Flip Off.”
On the show, Christina was supposed to work alongside her husband of less than three years, walking red flag Josh Hall. However, the pair’s divorce drama just seems too messy for them to have any chance of making like Christina and her ex-hubby, Tarek El Moussa, by trying to work together. Then again, Christina is trying to rebuild some semblance of a relationship with Anstead, so who knows what the future holds?
According to Us Weekly, Christina began following Anstead’s Instagram account after announcing her split from Josh. In response to an Instagram follower who suggested that Anstead could be her new partner on “The Flip Off,” Christina also revealed that she’s receptive to the possibility. “LOL that would be genius ‘ratings’ idea just sayin,” she wrote. There’s no word yet on how her ex feels about this idea, but Christina and Anstead previously faced off in an ugly custody dispute over their son, Hudson, that thankfully ended in 2022. Fans also have their own idea for what they want the new iteration of “The Flip Off” to look like — and some of them aren’t impressed with Christina’s cordial overture.
What game is Christina Hall playing?
Christina Hall and Antstead’s public custody battle seemed to be not only about spending time with their son but also about who would come out looking like the better parent and bigger person. Maybe Hall is doing the same by trying to make nice with Anstead — she’s already working with Tarek El Moussa on “The Flip Off,” so just imagine how magnanimous she would appear to be if she could work with Anstead as well. Some fans think she might also be trying to get under Josh Hall’s skin. “This seems like her just trying to mess with Josh. ‘SEEEE I get along fine with my other 2 ex husbands!'” read one comment on the HGTV subreddit. Another person wrote, “She’s only doing it to save the new show because one of her fans suggested she swap out Josh for Ant.” Some fans even think Christina wants to break up Anstead and his girlfriend, Renée Zellweger.
On “The Flip Off,” Tarek and Heather El Moussa were supposed to compete against Christina and Josh Hall to see whose house flip makes the biggest profit. Tarek told E! News HGTV is sticking with the concept, but Christina is going to be solo.
One Redditor suggested that Christina could use the show to renovate her love life by working with a new bachelor each week. Another fan quipped, “Design of Love! ‘Seven handsome contractors stand before me, but I only have 6 mallets …'”
