Christina Haack is embracing a carefree attitude following the cancellation of her HGTV series, “Christina on the Coast.” Recently spotted enjoying a day out with her boyfriend, Christopher Larocca, in Newport Beach, Christina showcased her upbeat demeanor by wearing a playful white tennis skirt and crop top. In a light-hearted social media post addressing the show’s cancellation, she humorously remarked, “Canceled looks good on me,” while sharing moments with her children and Larocca. Christina is a mother of three: 14-year-old Taylor and 9-year-old Brayden with ex-husband Tarek El Moussa, and 5-year-old Hudson with ex-husband Ant Anstead.
HGTV’s decision to cancel “Christina on the Coast” was part of a larger reshuffling, as the network announced the discontinuation of five shows, including “Battle on the Beach” and “Farmhouse Fixer,” back in June. Alongside these cancellations, it was reported that both Christina’s show and “Flipping El Moussas,” featuring Tarek and Heather Rae El Moussa, were also at risk. Despite this setback, Christina continues to have a presence on the network, as her other show, “The Flip Off,” which she co-hosts with Tarek and Heather, is set to return for a second season. However, specifics regarding filming and airing dates remain unclear.
In an earlier interview, Christina, Tarek, and Heather discussed their collaborative dynamic on “The Flip Off.” Christina candidly expressed her initial apprehension about working with Heather, questioning the chemistry between them. Heather shared similar concerns, wondering whether their personalities would mesh well on-screen. Tarek light-heartedly commented on his worries of the two women potentially teaming up against him, highlighting the playful rivalry that can arise in a collaborative environment.
Ultimately, the trio managed to cultivate an enjoyable working atmosphere. Reflecting on their experiences, Christina remarked on the pride she feels about their ability to adapt and succeed together, noting, “I can’t believe we did that.” Their collaboration appears to be a testament to the growth in their relationships, as they navigate the complexities of both personal and professional tie-ups.
Heather emphasized that working alongside Christina was not uncomfortable, largely due to their shared interactions through their children. Having established a routine of attending school and sports events together, the two found it naturally easy to cooperate and create entertaining content. This comfort also extends to Tarek and Christina’s working relationship. Tarek shared that over the past couple of years, they have achieved a harmonious relationship, taking almost a decade to reach this point. Their shared experiences have fostered a deeper understanding, making it easier to engage in business ventures together.
As Christina navigates the changes in her career, her resilience shines through in her upbeat outlook. Despite the cancellation of “Christina on the Coast,” she continues to prioritize her happiness and that of her children, focusing on the joys of life beyond television. Her playful interactions with Larocca and her dedication to her family showcase her positive spirit, reinforcing that success isn’t solely defined by a television show, but by personal happiness and fulfilling relationships.
