Tarek El Moussa and Heather Rae Share Fun but Tense Competition With Christina Haack on ‘The Flip Off’

The upcoming HGTV reality competition The Flip Off has already sparked excitement among fans, but it seems there’s more going on behind the scenes than meets the eye. Tarek El Moussa and his wife Heather Rae recently opened up about their friendly rivalry with Tarek’s ex-wife, Christina Haack, who’s also competing on the show. The former Flip or Flop duo, now joined by their current spouses, were initially set to compete as two couples. However, after Christina’s separation from Josh Hall, the show has taken a new dynamic with the trio.

Tarek El Moussa, known for his wit, hinted that the only real “tension” comes when Christina realizes she’s losing. In a light-hearted conversation with Fox Digital News, Tarek revealed, “The only time there’s tension is when she realizes she’s losing. Outside of that, things are pretty good.” The competitiveness, while playful, adds an extra layer of fun to the show.

Heather Rae also chimed in, noting how far the three have come in their blended family journey. After five years together and nearly three years of marriage, Heather shared that the three of them are in a good place and enjoying the competition. “It’s been like a fun, friendly competition,” Heather said, emphasizing the excitement fans feel about seeing Tarek and Christina, who had a public divorce, back on screen working together again.

With its unique blend of rivalry, humor, and the El Moussa-Haack dynamic, The Flip Off promises to deliver a fun ride for viewers. Despite past headlines about their personal lives, the trio’s playful competition has fans eager to tune in and see who will come out on top.

You can catch The Flip Off soon on HGTV, while all episodes of The Flipping El Moussas are available to stream on Max.
