Christina Hall (née Haack) stepped out for the first time since news of her divorce from Josh Hall surfaced — and her left hand was a little lighter.
The HGTV star, 41, ditched her wedding ring as she made her way to Gen Foot Spa in Costa Mesa, Calif., on Wednesday.
In a move signaling their separation to the public, Hall, 44, removed Haack and her children from his Instagram bio.
Previously, he included the first initials of her three children — daughter Taylor, 13, and sons Brayden, 8, and Hudson, 4 — referring to himself as their “protector.” He also had Haack tagged, but the bio section of his page is now empty.
Haack also adjusted her Instagram account amid the couple’s split by reportedly deleting a 2021 post that detailed the start of her relationship with the real estate agent.
“I met Josh when I wasn’t in a state of fear or fight-or-flight,” she wrote in the now-deleted post, per People, after finalizing her divorce from her second husband, Ant Anstead, the month before.
“When we met this past spring, the synchronicities hit us so hard and fast they were impossible to ignore,” she added. “I felt immediately crazy protective over him and wanted to keep him for myself and get to know each other before the tornado [media attention] hit.”
This move also follows the “Flip or Flop” alum’s recent deletion of an Instagram photo from her wedding with Hall just hours after he filed for divorce on Tuesday, reported People. The image showed the now-estranged couple holding hands with beaming smiles at their 2022 ceremony in Hawaii.
“My dream man on the dreamiest island. Maui holds a special place in my heart. What an amazing night filled with love,” the mom of three captioned the now-deleted image.
Hall filed for divorce on July 16 in Orange County, California, citing “irreconcilable differences.” He listed July 8 as the separation date, per documents obtained by TMZ.
Haack filed to end their marriage on Monday.
According to the documents, Hall has requested spousal support and for the “Christina on the Coast” star to pay his legal fees. Haack asked the court not to award alimony to either party, reported Us Weekly.
While the former couple doesn’t have a prenup, Hall seeks all rights to his property before he and Haack married and equal division of community property acquired during their union, including any rights to the Discovery and HGTV shows they developed, produced, or contracted.
An inside source told People the couple “had issues in the marriage for quite some time.”
This marks Haack’s third divorce, having been previously married to “Flip or Flop” co-star Tarek El Moussa and Anstead. She shares daughter Taylor and son Brayden with El Moussa and son Hudson with Anstead.
In May, HGTV announced a series called “The Flip Off,” where the newly estranged couple would face off with El Moussa, 42, and his current wife, Heather Rae El Moussa. The show marked Haack and El Moussa’s first time working together since “Flip or Flop” ended in March 2022.
HGTV hasn’t revealed how the recent divorce will impact the new show.
