Christina Haack and Tarek El Moussa might no longer be spouses, but they are still part of the same family. Separating in 2016, the duo is still working together nine years later.

Parents to kids Taylor, 14, and Brayden, 9, the former lovers have moved on from each other. In the aftermath of their split, the two of them even welcomed more kids into their lives. Haack welcomed Hudson, 5, with second husband Ant Antstead, and El Moussa had Tristan, 2, with wife Heather El Moussa.

With their kids getting older, questions of whether Haack and El Moussa’s kids will follow in their parents’ footsteps are becoming increasingly more common. When TV Insider prompted Haack and the El Moussas for their opinion on what their kids will do in the future, they all started nodding in unison. “I see all the kids getting into real estate,” Tarek said. “I see them getting into entertainment. I see them getting into really anything their heart desires. Because between the three of us, we do a little bit of everything.”

Haack confirmed this by stating, “If you ask like Taylor [and] Brayden, they say that’s what they want to do.” Heather has also noticed the children’s interest. “They’ve shown a lot of interest in it.  she remarked. “We talk about real estate and design a lot, and they’ve just been involved with it their whole lives.” However, she did mention that Tristan is still “too young” for any of those topics to come up.

All involved in their kids’ lives, the Selling Sunset alum declared, “Taylor and Brayden are the best brother and sister to Tristan. Tristan is absolutely obsessed with them. We have them 50% of the time. So when they come back home to our house, oh my gosh, Tristan just lights up. Follows Brayden.” And, don’t worry, Hudson is involved, too. Hudson was also a guest at Tristan’s second birthday party.

It’s worth noting that there’s no love lost between Haack and Tarek. Speaking to TV Insider the 43-year-old Flip or Flop alum revealed, “Christina’s family. We have two kids together. We filmed a show together. We’ve all been together, co-parenting for six years now, and we have to support each other, and we have to help each other.” He emphasized the bond Haack and his current wife share. This is apparent as the Selling Sunset star and Christina on The Coast host have both been excited to share their budding friendship and are now part of The Flip Off.

The El Moussas were right by Haack’s side when she decided to break up with her third husband, Josh Hall. “It was very difficult to see her going through what she was going through, and it was very difficult to see the kids upset. And in the end, I think it’s all working out for the best,” Tarek said.
