Inside HGTV star Christina Hall’s third high profile divorce: ‘She’s fighting back’

nypost.com:

she filed for divorce from husband Josh Hall, 43, in Orange County, California.The pair co-starred together on two seasons of “Christina in the Country,” and Josh was also credited on one episode, from 2022, of “Christina on the Coast.” More recently, they were shooting — alongside El Moussa and his wife, Heather Rae Young, 36, from “Selling Sunset” — a new HGTV series called “The Flip Off.” It was slated to air in 2025.

But, behind the scenes, Christina and Josh hadn’t quite built a happy life together. “He was really piggy backing off her,” an HGTV insider told The Post. “I’m sure this show ‘The Flip Off’ was probably the last straw for [Christina].

He wasn’t good on camera.”“She tried to make it work, and there’s a breaking point,” added a source close to Christina. “Things have not been great for a really long time.”Christina’s rep, Cassie Zebisch-Schienle, said that her client is “looking forward to moving forward in this chapter of her life.” Josh, who did not respond to request for comment for this story, filed for divorce the same day as Christina, citing irreconcilable differences. (HGTV also did not respond to a request for comment.)According to court documents filed in Orange County Superior Court and obtained by The Post, Christina is asking a judge to order Josh to give back $35,000 that she alleges he transferred to his personal bank account the day before she requested a divorce.

Christina feels he was trying to “steal money from her,” a source told The Post. The reality star is asking that Josh pay her attorney fees and also seeking to maintain exclusive use of their $12 million Newport Beach, California, residence, according to the docs.
