Inside Christina Haack and Joshua Hall's Whirlwind Relationship Timeline Josh's shock divorce filing brought an end to their marriage of more than two years . The pair tied the knot in April 2022, and followed it up with a formal wedding ceremony with friends and family in Maui, Hawaii, several months later.
"Shared vows in front of family and our close friends," Christina wrote in the caption of an Instagram post showing photos of the ceremony, including her stunning lace wedding dress. "Everything in life has led me to where I am right now, which is exactly where I want to be. My dream man on the dreamiest island. Maui holds a special place in my heart. What an amazing night filled with love."
Fans were skeptical of Christina's whirlwind romance with Josh, as it came on the heels of her September 2020 split from Ant, 45. The Wheeler Dealers host made it clear she was the one who initiated the breakup , and Christina filed for divorce two months later after 23 months of marriage. The dissolution was finalized in June 2021, one month before the reality star confirmed her relationship with Josh.
After photos emerged of the pair looking cozy on a Mexican getaway, Christina took to Instagram to confirm and defend her romance with the realtor.
"I met Josh when I wasn’t in a state of fear or fight-or-flight … When we met this past spring, the synchronicities hit us so hard and fast they were impossible to ignore,” she told fans in a July 8, 2021, Instagram post while sharing photos of them together.
“I may be a bit crazy and I’m definitely not perfect, but I will never live my life based on other people’s judgments or opinions," Christina defiantly added. "So yes ‘another relationship’ and guess what. I’m 38 — I’ll do what I want.”
The former couple got engaged two months later in September 2021, one year after her split from Ant.
Christina was very open about how she thought she really got it right by settling down with Josh.
The reality star shared a post to celebrate one year of dating , showing a picture from her first date with Josh along with a new photo of the pair in an embrace. "Nashville: March 2021 and March 2022," she wrote in the caption then added the lyrics to Chris Stapleton 's song "Starting Over."
"When nobody wins afraid of losing. And the hard roads are the ones worth choosing… Someday we'll look back and smile and know it was worth every mile," Christina wrote.
For Josh's birthday in September 2023, Christina shared a photo of the couple kissing on the beach and wrote, "Happy Birthday to my gorgeous husband. My ride or die, protector and the best step daddy. I truly appreciate everything you do for me and the kids. Love our life baby, let’s live it like there’s no tomorrow."
