Christina Haack traded winter layers for a bikini and a tropical getaway.
The HGTV star shared a series of vacation photos on Instagram from Kapalua, Hawaii, where she spent time soaking in ocean views and warm weather alongside boyfriend Chris Larocca.
Haack posed poolside with Larocca, wearing a white bikini top paired with a matching wrap skirt. She accessorized with oversized sunglasses and a purple lei as rows of pool loungers and palm trees framed the scene behind her.
Larocca stood beside her in a black T-shirt, white shorts and flip-flops as the couple smiled for the camera.
The 42-year-old mother of three shared a close-up selfie while lounging with a drink in hand, smiling broadly as she wore the same white bikini and lei.
Haack captioned the post, “Aloha 2026. Hands down my fav January yet. 🤍🌸” The couple enjoyed a romantic getaway, and Haack shared a glimpse of the stunning views with her followers.
Before heading to Hawaii, the couple bundled up for a blended-family winter trip to Park City, Utah.
In one photo from the New Year’s trip, Haack posed alongside ex-husband Tarek El Moussa, his wife Heather Rae El Moussa and boyfriend Chris Larocca as the group participated in après-ski activities. The foursome smiled for the camera while bundled in winter layers, marking the holiday together despite lighter-than-expected snowfall.
Haack acknowledged the conditions in the caption, joking that it was “the saddest amount of snow” she had seen in Park City, while noting that the blended family still made the most of the trip.

Another image from the post focused on the children, showing Haack’s 6-year-old son Hudson, whom she shares with ex-husband Ant Anstead, posing with her and El Moussa’s son Brayden, 10, along with Tarek and Heather Rae El Moussa’s 2-year-old son, Tristan. The kids appeared bundled against the cold as the snowy mountain landscape stretched out behind them.
The group’s vacation comes as Haack and Heather Rae El Moussa continue to collaborate professionally. The two star together on HGTV’s house-flipping competition series “The Flip Off,” which follows the women — alongside Tarek El Moussa — as they compete to see which couple can achieve the biggest profit renovating homes. The series was renewed for a second season set to air in 2026.

Despite their complicated history, Haack and El Moussa have embraced a collaborative blended-family dynamic, frequently sharing moments from group trips and holidays while continuing to work together on television.
Haack’s Hawaii and Park City trips come as the HGTV star continues to navigate a highly public personal life that has unfolded alongside her television career.
Haack first rose to prominence alongside former husband Tarek El Moussa, whom she married in 2009 after the two met while working as real estate agents in California. The pair later starred together on HGTV’s hit series “Flip or Flop,” building both a business and a family before their relationship ended.
Despite their split, Haack has spoken candidly about how her relationship with El Moussa has evolved over time. During an appearance on SiriusXM’s Radio Andy in January 2025, she reflected on how he has changed since their marriage.
“He’s way different,” Haack said. “He’s much more calm. Thank God for everybody. And I think he wants to make his relationship work.”
Haack also addressed her dynamic with El Moussa’s wife, Heather Rae El Moussa, noting that the two developed a strong working relationship while filming together.
“I actually really like her,” Haack said. “She’s a hard worker, she puts up with Tarek and she’s a great stepmom.”

Haack later married real estate agent Josh Hall in October 2021, a relationship that ended in a contentious split, with the divorce not finalized until May 2025. Speaking openly on Radio Andy, Haack detailed the status of the divorce proceedings back January 2025.
