“Flip or Flop” star Christina El Moussa is one step closer to reconstructing her life after splitting from her husband.
The HGTV personality officially filed for divorce from Tarek El Moussa, eight months after the famous couple announced they were separating, according to court documents obtained by People magazine.
In her legal filing, Christina cited “irreconcilable differences” and requested joint legal and physical custody of their two young children.
Her decision to file comes a little over six months after Tarek submitted his paperwork for a divorce in January.
Tarek and Christina’s breakup saga continues to play out in the public eye, as it has since the duo announced their decision to end their seven-year marriage last December.
The split came months after a May 2016 incident that involved police coming to their California home due to reports that a male had left their house with a gun. Tarek has since confirmed he was the man with the weapon, but that he only brought the firearm with him to protect himself from animals during a walk.
The El Moussa’s referenced the incident in their joint statement announcing the split late last year.
“Like many couples, we have had challenges in our marriage,” they said at the time. “We had an unfortunate misunderstanding about six months ago and the police were called to our house in an abundance of caution. There was no violence and no charges were filed.”
Despite their separation, Tarek and Christina have continued to host their home remodeling show “Flip or Flop” together since breaking up. They signed on for an eighth season in April.
In June, Tarek said it wasn’t awkward working with his ex and revealed he was enjoying the single life.
“I’ve really never been single before, believe it or not,” Tarek told E! News. “It’s a whole new life and I am having a lot of fun.”
Christina and Tarek have two kids: 6-year-old daughter Taylor and son Braden, who turns 2 this Sunday.
