Christina & Joshua Hall Were Having Problems In Their Marriage LONG Before Divorce Filing: SOURCE

Christina and Joshua Hall’s divorce filings may have been a shock to their fans. But their marriage has been in trouble for a looong time before the news of their split broke!

As we previously reported, the 43-year-old realtor filed for divorce on Tuesday, citing “irreconcilable differences.” He also listed the date of their separation as July 8 — one day before her 41st birthday. Ouch. But it turns out the estranged couple’s relationship was on the rocks way before that. A source told People Josh and Christina “had issues in the marriage for quite some time” before the divorce filing.

As for what caused their marital troubles? Unfortunately, the source didn’t give any more details. Joshua’s documents also gave zero insight into what happened. So, we’ll just have to wait and see if more information comes out, especially once Christina’s own divorce filing is processed.

Although we have no other details about what led to the sudden breakup, it does sound like things will get nasty between the exes! For instance, he’s gunning for all the rights to the HGTV and Discovery Network shows or specials they produced together, including their upcoming series The Flip Off with her ex-husband, Tarek El Moussa, and his wife, Heather! He also demanded alimony from Christina and the removal of her ability to collect from him. And you can bet the reality star will fight him on both these matters! Especially since they do not have a prenup! After two other divorces, one would think she would make sure to have a prenup in place!

Oh, and then there is the fact that Christina already wiped all traces of her estranged hubby from social media! Even their wedding pictures are gone! Clearly, the real estate investor is NOT on good terms with Josh as they head into this divorce process! Oof. We just want to know how the pair got to this place now! Reactions, Perezcious readers? Sound OFF in the comments!
