Christina Haack revealed her divorce battle with estranged husband Josh Hall is far from over.
“[We’re] not even close,” Haack, 41, said on the Thursday, January 9, episode of Radio Andy’s Jeff Lewis Live. “We’re going to be going to trial I hear.”
The HGTV star alleged that Hall, 44, “doesn’t want to do mediation” and inferred he wasn’t moving the process along.
“It’s going to be fun,” she told host Jeff Lewis. “Can’t wait.”
Haack and Hall both filed for divorce in July 2024 after more than two years of marriage.
According to court documents obtained by Us Weekly, Haack — who hired divorce attorney Laura Wasser — requested that neither party receive spousal support and wanted Hall to pay her lawyer fees. Hall, meanwhile, was seeking spousal support from his ex and asked her to pay his attorney fees.
“[The court hasn’t] ordered me yet but he’s been asking me [for money],” Haack alleged in her latest interview. “I’ve already had to give a little something but then he bought a Bentley. I gave him money to live and he bought a Bentley but he also doesn’t have a job so.”
In response to Haack’s latest interview, Hall’s spokesperson told Us: “Hall is not available for comment, as he’s continuing to live his life in the present and celebrating his beautiful new girlfriend’s birthday. With that said, it’s sad Christina must resort to low blows about her ex Josh to promote her new show. She should focus on her new boyfriend and stop talking about Josh. As the great Mariah Carey once sang, ‘Why you so obsessed with me?’ We wish Christina the best.
Hall’s rep added, “Christina knows nothing about Josh’s life, and it’s sad she keeps speculating. Her accusations are baseless.”
Haack is now reportedly dating Christopher LaRocca, who is the CEO of Network Connex in Orange County, California. As for Hall, an insider previously told Us he is dating Stephanie Gabrys, a model based in Nashville.
During the interview, Lewis, 54, also tried to play a game where he asked his guest to name the ex who most applies to the question.
Haack was previously married to Tarek El Moussa from 2009 to 2018. They share Taylor, 14, and Brayden, 9. She also shares Hudson, 5, with ex-husband Ant Anstead.
When asked to share the best travel companion, Haack said “myself.” Anstead, 45, was named for best ex in a crisis while El Moussa, 43, was named best dressed.
When being pressed about the best kisser, Haack stayed quiet. “I can’t,” she said before playfully putting her head on the table.
All jokes aside, Haack does appear to be in a good place with some of her exes.
Later this month, the HGTV star will team up with Tarek and his wife, Heather Rae El Moussa, on a new series titled The Flip Off.
Haack also exclusively told Us that her relationship with Anstead improved after her split from Hall — especially when it comes to coparenting Hudson.
“When Josh and I split up, I hadn’t really talked to Ant in years,” Haack shared in her Us Weekly cover story. “The whole time I was with Josh, I would worry [thinking about how] Hudson’s sports [games] are coming up, we’re going to have to be on the field together, how’s Josh going to handle it?”
After her romantic relationship with Hall came to an end, Haack said things took a turn.
“[After we broke up] I was dropping Hudson off at Ant’s house, and he gave me a big hug and was like, ‘I’m here for you and I’m so sorry you’re going through this,’” she recalled to Us. “He said, ‘I feel like Josh is the source of the problem [and why] I couldn’t communicate.’ Now we’re back on track.”
