Christina Haack, known for her role on HGTV and her former marriage to ‘Born Mechanic’ host Ant Anstead, has recently shown her support for her ex-husband’s touching Instagram post dedicated to his girlfriend, award-winning actress Renée Zellweger.
In the post shared on February 13, Anstead expressed his excitement for the premiere of Zellweger’s latest movie, Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy, the fourth instalment in the beloved Bridget Jones film series. Anstead praised the film as “utterly brilliant” and shared his admiration for Zellweger’s performance, urging fans to enjoy the movie.
The post included a photo of Anstead holding a sign that read “Team Jones” and a slide featuring the movie poster. Anstead has been openly supportive of Zellweger throughout the film’s production process and even attended the London premiere with his two older children, Amelie, 21, and Archie, 18, whom he shares with his previous partner.
Haack’s gesture of liking Anstead’s post is just one of the subtle ways she has shown her support for his relationship with Zellweger. Previously, when Anstead shared a birthday tribute to their son Hudson, Haack acknowledged their shared love for their child along with Zellweger’s affectionate nickname from him.
After their divorce in 2021 following a challenging separation, Haack and Anstead have managed to mend their relationship and co-parent their son. Despite rumours suggesting tension between the trio, Haack’s recent support towards Anstead’s relationship with Zellweger showcases a harmonious dynamic between the former spouses.
Haack’s current romantic status includes dating businessman Christopher Larocca, as confirmed by PEOPLE in January. Despite her past marriages to Tarek El Moussa and Josh Hall, Haack seems to be focused on her present relationship and maintaining an amicable co-parenting relationship with Anstead.
As Haack continues to navigate her personal life in the public eye, she has extended an invitation to Anstead to appear as a guest judge on her show The Flip Off, where he offers critiques on design choices alongside Haack’s ex-husband, El Moussa, and his wife, Heather. The forthcoming episode is set to feature Anstead in a role of authority, evaluating the contestants’ house-flipping skills.
The evolving dynamics between Haack, Anstead, and Zellweger demonstrate a mature approach to navigating relationships post-divorce and prioritising the well-being of their shared child. Despite their past differences, they have shown that mutual respect and support can pave the way for healthy co-parenting and harmonious interactions.
Haack’s supportive actions towards Anstead’s relationship with Zellweger exemplify a positive shift in their post-divorce journey, setting a commendable example for others in similar situations. As they continue to co-create a new normal for their family, Haack and Anstead’s journey serves as a testament to the power of understanding, empathy, and growth in navigating complex relationships.
