Christina Hall has deleted a three-year-old post about the beginnings of her secret romance with Josh Hall amid the news that he filed for divorce from the HGTV star.
The same week the couple’s relationship became public in July 2021, the Christina on the Coast star, 41, shared a lengthy Instagram post, letting her followers in on how the relationship came to be and why she kept it away from the public eye..
"I met Josh when I wasn't in a state of fear or fight-or-flight," wrote Christina, whose divorce from her second husband Ant Anstead had been finalized the previous month.
The HGTV star also noted that she’d taken a break from social media and began working on herself spiritually at the end of 2020.
"When we met this past spring, the synchronicities hit us so hard and fast they were impossible to ignore," she added. "I felt immediately crazy protective over him and wanted to keep him for myself and get to know each other before the tornado media attention hit."
Christina also explained that she and Hall had "a few solid months" of getting to know each other without the public knowing, and that she "loved every second of it."
Two days before the post, Christina and Josh were photographed together at Los Angeles International Airport as they boarded a flight to celebrate Christina’s 38th birthday.
"When I saw a camera behind us at the airport my heart started beating out of my chest and my hands shaking - And not for me but for him," she said of Josh, who works in real estate.
The HGTV star, whose first husband was her Flip or Flop co-star Tarek -
El Moussa, expressed concerns over Josh’s private life and "the price of fame."
