Christina Haack Blames Expensive Divorce for New Budget
Haack and Hall finally settled their divorce in early May 2025 after splitting in July 2024. Haack shared the news on social media, celebrating that she could put the messy situation behind her.
On May 1, Haack wrote a thank you note to her lawyers on her Instagram Stories. “You are all a true class act. I loved watching you in action and how you handle everything and everyone with class and grace. I appreciate you all beyond words,” she shared. “I have learned so much under your guidance.”
She added, “And I’m grateful to have this behind me. I can’t wait to move on with my life and focus on what’s ahead and all my blessings.”
The HGTV star took to her Instagram Stories on May 7 to share a great clothing bargain as she remarked how the divorce expense made her cut back on spending.
Haack posed at the For Your Consideration Emmy event for “The Flip Off” in a long-sleeved black mini dress. “Paying for this divorce hasn’t been cheap so I’ve been trying to cut down on my spending especially when it comes to clothes,” she noted. “This dress was super cute and only $65.”
She provided a link to the Princess Polly Kato Body-Con Mini Dress from Nordstrom.
Christina Haack Says She Wishes She Had a Prenup
During the February 26 episode of “The Flip Off,” Haack’s friend Cassie asked, “What’s going on with the divorce?”
Haack responded, “It’s crazy,” noting how Hall allegedly kept requesting large amounts of money in the divorce. “He wants to retire off me,” she said.
She continued, “Honestly, if I would’ve really understood the repercussions of all of this, I would’ve gotten a prenup or I never would have married him.”
The HGTV star shared how Hall was making her “offers” as they sorted out their messy divorce.
“Especially someone that didn’t have to work for a few years that would take this much advantage of me,” Haack said. “Literally, the last offer he made, I thought was asinine. The next one is worse. More money.”
