Tarek El Moussa Jokes He Was Outnumbered as Wife Heather and Ex Christina Haack ‘Ganged Up’ on Him on Set of ‘The Flip Off’ Season 2
HGTV star Tarek El Moussa is poking fun at his wife, Heather Rae, and his ex, Christina Haack, for "ganging up" on him during filming of their home renovation competition series, 'The Flip Off.'
The 44-year-old, who recently snapped up a new mansion with his wife, took to Instagram to tease his ex and his spouse for becoming "close friends" in a silly video.
In the clip, Haack, 42, and Heather, 37, stood on either side of Tarek and gave him a stern glare while he shrugged his shoulders.
The overlay text read, "Films a hit competition show with my wife and my ex-wife."
The video then cut to a photo of Haack and Heather hugging with the words, "They become close friends."
He captioned the post, "How did I not see this coming & now they like to gang up against me!"

The clip comes after it was confirmed that the series will return for a second season—having avoided the chopping block that has seen seven of the network's programs given the axe in recent weeks.
Haack teamed up with Tarek and Heather to share the happy news with a tongue-in-cheek Instagram video in which the trio poke fun at the many comparisons drawn between the two women.
The clip began with Tarek seated in the office of his new $5.2 million Newport Beach mansion taking a work call—before he was interrupted by a text message seemingly announcing his show's renewal.
Leaping up in excitement, the father of three exclaimed, "The king is back, baby!" before pulling a gold crown from his desk drawer and placing it atop his head.
Meanwhile, Haack and Heather hung around the sipping on champagne when they too received the same text announcing: "The Flip Off season two is a go!"
According to HGTV, Season 2 of "The Flip Off" will take the same format as the first, with Tarek and Heather teaming up in a renovation battle against Haack, who will bring in a series of guest helpers to assist in her home overhauls.
The trio's joint video post answered fan questions about the future of the series, which was put into serious doubt after it was revealed that HGTV had canceled multiple shows—including other franchises starring the El Moussas and Haack.
"Bargain Block," "Married to Real Estate," "Farmhouse Fixer," "Izzy Does It," "Christina on the Coast," and "The Flipping El Moussas" were all given the chop by the network, prompting outrage from viewers, some of whom even threatened to boycott HGTV as a result of the cancellations.


"Exactly what are they planning on airing?" one person questioned in a Reddit thread about the canceled series. "Everything is canceled."
Another chimed in: "It sounds like the end of the station."
"Those are all great shows! I’m very frustrated," one person added.
HGTV has not yet revealed the reasons for the cancellations; however, reports later emerged claiming that the network's viewership has plummeted by half in the past eight years, which triggered some major changes to its programming.
Deadline stated that HGTV averaged about 1.5 million viewers in 2017, citing Nielsen—but by 2024, that number had dropped to 773,000, the outlet claimed.
According to Deadline's story, the company is struggling to attract viewers aged 18 to 49, losing 26% among that demographic in the past year.

In 2017, viewers aged 18 to 49 averaged 425,000, while 2024 saw only 101,000.
The outlet noted that part of the reason for HGTV's troubles is the large budget it takes to produce and put on a home renovation show—which can reportedly cost upward of $500,000 per episode.
However, HGTV issued a statement on Aug. 21 announcing that its new slate of shows, confirming that several fan favorites will be returning, in addition to "The Flip Off."
Erin and Ben Napier's hit series "Home Town" will be making a return—along with a new spin-off, "Home Town: Inn This Together," while "Love It or List It," "Renovation Aloha," and "100 Day Dream Home" are all due to be broadcast again.
Hostess Alison Victoria will return in a new series entitled "Sin City Rehab," joining two other debut programs, "Cheap A$$ Beach Houses" and "Tropic Like It's Hot."
