Christina Haack is back to her maiden name (again) amid her divorce from Josh Hall. The 41-year-old HGTV star has changed her name back to Haack, which she previously used before marrying Josh Hall. This recent name change comes just three months after her estranged husband filed for divorce in July, marking yet another chapter in her personal life. Notably, a press release from Home and Garden Television announced the season 2 premiere of her spinoff series, Christina in the Country, where she was identified as Christina Haack on October 15.
This marks Christina’s fifth name change following a split, having previously gone by El Moussa, Anstead, Hall, and now Haack again. Christina was first married to Tarek El Moussa from 2009 to 2016, with whom she shares two children, Taylor and Brayden. She then married her second ex-husband, Ant Anstead, from 2018 to 2020, and they share one son named Hudson. As she navigates through this transition, Christina's public persona continues to evolve alongside her personal life.
According to Life & Style, Christina's most recent breakup occurred in July when Josh, 44, filed for divorce from her, citing "irreconcilable differences." He mentioned their separation date as July 8, while Christina filed for divorce the next day, claiming their separation date was July 7. During her filing, she requested the court to restore her maiden name, Haack, as confirmed by legal documents obtained by Life & Style.

Josh publicly addressed the split about a month later, expressing it was a “divorce he didn’t ask for.” He wrote on Instagram that he would not publicly disparage anyone, emphasizing the importance of respecting families and maintaining privacy. He stated, "We are real humans, this is our life, and I am not here to entertain people I don’t know with my private matters." This indication of maintaining dignity reflects the complex nature of their relationship, especially in the public eye.
Christina has also shared her journey post-breakup, telling her followers she would "never ever give away my peace again." In her Instagram stories, she revealed feeling revitalized, exercising, and cherishing her time with her children. Christina expressed that her life is getting back on track, stating that she has had some of her best nights with friends, laughing more than ever. Additionally, she mentioned enjoying success at work, which has helped her navigate this challenging period.
The split continues to unfold publicly as the former couple was set to star in a new HGTV home renovation competition show, The Flip Off. Reports indicate that the show will proceed without Josh, who accused Christina of employing "scorched-earth divorce tactics" and attempting to exclude him from the project amid their legal battles, according to court documents obtained by In Touch.
As Christina Haack reclaims her identity amid these changes, her story resonates with many as a reminder of resilience and personal growth in the face of life's challenges.
