Awkward Beginnings

In an Instagram video shared May 5, 44-year-old Tarek reflected on how strange it felt to work with both his ex and his current wife. He reminded viewers that he and Christina spent ten years on Flip or Flop (2013–2022), raised their children Taylor (15) and Brayden (10) in public, and were once a top cable show in 2016–2017. The pair first met in 2005, when Tarek was 24 and Christina was 22; they were married from 2009 to 2016.
