Christina Haack Says Ex Josh Hall Asked for $65,000 Monthly Spousal Support, Per Docs

Christina Haack and Josh Hall’s divorce has taken a new turn.

The Flip or Flop alum accused her estranged husband of seeking an “outrageous” sum in spousal support, slamming the realtor for the alleged request.

“Josh Hall is requesting $65,000 per month in spousal support from [Christina] on a 2 year, 9 month marriage,” according to her court documents obtained by People, “which is outrageous when he is self-supporting.”

In the docs, Christina—who shares daughter Taylor, 14, and son Brayden, 9, with ex-husband Tarek El Moussa as well as son Hudson, 5, with ex-husband Ant Anstead—also claimed her ex recently spent $70,000 to pay off the lease on a Bentley, arguing that he therefore “has no need for spousal support.”

However, Josh refuted the claim on social media, taking aim at Christina’s lawyer Matthew S. DeArmey and alleging the legal filing was “riddled with lies and assumptions.”

“Interesting tactic for someone who is a licensed attorney and took an oath of integrity,” Josh wrote in an Instagram Story post Oct. 16. “Pretty sure making provably false statements to a judge is unethical.”

In a statement to E! News, his attorney Sara Yunus called Christina’s filing “a complete distortion of the truth,” saying she and her lawyer “entirely misrepresented terms of a confidential settlement offer.”

“In reality, Josh offered to waive spousal support as part of a global settlement, which Christina rejected,” the statement said. “Christina twisted his offer to make it appear as though it’s Josh who is being unreasonable.”

She concluded, “Josh will not put up with Christina’s continued bullying of him through the court of public opinion, particularly when she spreads lies.”

Christina’s rep and lawyer declined E! News’ request for comment on the filing and have not responded to requests for comment on Josh’s statement.

The former couple both filed for divorce in July after nearly three years of marriage. In separate court filings obtained by E! News at the time, Josh did request spousal support—though an exact amount was not listed—while Christina asked that neither party be awarded spousal support.

Another point of contention in the split is the exes’ $4.5 million farmhouse in Tennessee.

While Josh alleged he came to a temporary agreement with the HGTV star allowing him to live in the home when it’s not rented out, he claimed she put the house for sale despite his objections, per court docs obtained by People. According to the outlet, Christina said she “gave proper and timely notice” before putting the property on the market.

My dream man on the dreamiest island. Maui holds a special place in my heart. What an amazing night filled with love."

It would later be revealed that the two actually wed in October 2021.

The real estate agent celebrated the HGTV star's birthday with a sweet tribute.

"Happy 40th Birthday to my absolute stunner of a wife!" he wrote on Instagram. "This woman has accomplished so much, inspired so many and continues to impress me daily. I can’t say enough about what an absolute force she is and what she is capable of. Christina is about to make her 40’s the best decade of her life and looking better than ever while doing it!I’m a lucky man and thank my lucky stars that she chose me to take this ride with her that is now our life.

In July 2024, Josh filed for divorce from Christina, citing "irreconcilable differences” as the reason for their split and her listing the same in her own court documents.
