Christina Haack and Ant Anstead recently marked a significant milestone in their co-parenting journey, as their son Hudson turned seven years old. The former couple took to social media to share heartfelt tributes celebrating their son’s birthday, highlighting their shared commitment to raising him despite their past relationship.

Haack, the well-known HGTV host, shared a series of seven pictures on Instagram, showcasing Hudson’s growth over the years. The carousel included charming snapshots of him interacting affectionately with various animals. In her post, she expressed her deep affection for her son, writing, “Happy 7️⃣ Birthday Hudson!! My sweet boy, I adore you and your kind soul!!” She described Hudson as “smart, adventurous, helpful, silly and a full-on Virgo when it comes to organisation,” conveying her pride in being his mother.
In a show of unity, Anstead commented on Haack’s post, affirming their parental partnership by stating, “We are doing a good job! X.” Anstead, the host of “For the Love of Cars,” shared his own tribute through a compilation of videos and images that documented Hudson’s life from birth to his seventh year. He expressed his pride and joy in a touching message: “Hudzo, you were born with a light! An unmistakably GLOW around you! You shine with a beautiful blend of fun, cheekiness, love and so much kindness!”
As he continued to reflect on his son’s nature, Anstead remarked, “You are an utterly brilliant boy, and it is a privilege to watch you grow and thrive.” He concluded his post with a loving wish for his son: “Happy 7th birthday, Hudzo. Keep on GLOWING! X.”
The ex-spouses, who share two children from their prior relationships each, showed a united front when they attended Hudson’s recent school performance together. Their collaboration at the event highlighted their commitment to maintaining a supportive family environment. Anstead previously shared his enthusiasm for the festive time of year while praising Hudson’s performance: “Ahhhh man! This time of year is the best!! Hudzo and his classmates CRUSHED this morning’s Christmas gingerbread man performance!”
Haack echoed this sentiment in her Instagram Stories, calling it the “cutest class play.” The images shared from the day illustrated the pride they both felt in Hudson’s achievements and offered a glimpse into their amicable co-parenting dynamic.
In an inspiring turn of events, Haack and Anstead recently reconnected after years of primarily communicating on custodial concerns. Their reunion came ahead of Anstead’s guest appearance on Haack’s HGTV series, further uniting them in a professional context. Haack revealed the emotional nature of their interaction, stating, “He gave me a huge hug. We hadn’t hugged in years.” She added, “He just said, ‘I’m so sorry for everything you’re going through, and I’m here for you no matter what you need.’ It was a very nice moment.”
The pair’s joint photo on social media, featuring them proudly alongside Hudson, was their first collaborative post since their separation in 2020, which followed a marriage of fewer than two years. They captioned the image with words of encouragement and pride: “Our little gentleman CRUSHED his school performance this morning. He’s thriving x,” followed by emojis expressing applause and love.
With Hudson now seven years old, both parents seem committed to fostering a positive relationship, embracing the joys of co-parenting while nurturing their shared son. The birthday celebrations serve as a poignant reminder of the love they continue to have for their child, transcending their personal history. As they each celebrate Hudson’s milestones, it is clear that the focus remains on providing him with a happy and supportive upbringing.
