Just hours after announcing her engagement to boyfriend Joshua Hall on Monday, Christina Haack proudly flaunted her dazzling new ring on her Instagram Story.
The Christina on the Coast star, 38, expressed gratitude to Benny Hayoun of Los Angeles-based Benny and the Gems for crafting the emerald-cut diamond ring, which rests on a pavé diamond band. “Thank you @bennyandthegems – great friend and best jeweler,” Haack wrote in her caption.
To share the happy news of her engagement, Haack posted three photos featuring her and Hall enjoying a romantic sunset dinner in Los Cabos, Mexico — where they were celebrating his birthday. In two of the photos, Haack’s sparkling ring is clearly visible, while the third captures the couple sharing a sweet kiss.
Haack accompanied her post with five emojis: a heart, an infinity symbol, a lock, a key, and a ring. Fans quickly filled the comments with congratulatory messages for the newly engaged couple.
The HGTV personality and mother of three also updated her Instagram bio to read: “Mommy. Josh Hall.”
Just one day before the engagement reveal, Haack had shared a beach photo with Hall in honor of his birthday, writing a touching tribute to her now-fiancé.
“Happy birthday baby. You give me that teenage kinda love vibe and manly protection,” she captioned the post. “It’s a combo for a lifetime of happiness + success.”
“Thank you for reminding me what life and love are like when you put down the technology,” Haack added. “I love you Josh.”
The engagement comes just two months after exclusively confirmed in early July that Haack was in a new relationship. The pair celebrated her 38th birthday with a Mexican getaway at the time.
Haack later revealed that she and Hall had actually been dating for several months, writing in an Instagram post, “When we met this past spring, the synchronicities hit us so hard and fast they were impossible to ignore.”
This will mark Haack’s third marriage. She was previously married to her Flip or Flop costar Tarek El Moussa from 2009 to 2018 and to Celebrity IOU: Joyride host Ant Anstead from 2018 to 2021.
Interestingly, El Moussa proposed to his fiancée Heather Rae Young last year with an eight-carat, colorless, emerald-cut diamond ring — also designed by Hayoun of Benny and the Gems, the same jeweler chosen by Hall.
“The diamond is perfect all the way around, just like Heather,” El Moussa told at the time. “I also picked this ring because eight is a lucky number.”
On Monday morning, Hayoun posted a photo on Instagram showing Young flashing her ring during Sunday’s episode of Celebrity Family Feud, captioning it, “Only one ring can blind the bling empire and leave them speechless.”
Haack shares daughter Taylor Reese, 10, and son Brayden James, 6, with El Moussa, as well as son Hudson London, 2, with Anstead.
