The TV star Tarek El Moussa (42) was at his lowest point! His life couldn’t actually look nicer at the moment. In October 2021, the investor said yes to Heather (36). Two years later, the Selling Sunset actress and the TV star were also able to look forward to having offspring. The two are currently sharing their happy family life with fans in their own reality series “The Flipping El Moussas”. However, life wasn’t always so rosy for Tarek.
The marriage to Heather is not the TV realtor’s first. Tarek married his then colleague Christina Hall in 2009. When the marriage suddenly broke up ten years later, a dark time began for him, as he now admits in the podcast “The Jeff Fenster Show”. “After the separation, I lived in a rehabilitation center because I couldn’t cope on my own,” says the father of three. He needed 24/7 care, things were so bad for him. He continues: “It was a difficult time because I had lost everything, seemingly overnight.”
The entrepreneur wants to give hope to others with his story. Heather also seems to be at peace with his past. The new woman at his side is happy to be a supportive stepmom for his two children from his first marriage. Tarek’s daughter Taylor even called her “the best mom ever.”
