Heather Rae and Tarek El Moussa Speak Out on Christina Hall's Divorce From Josh Hall

Tarek El Moussa and Heather Rae El Moussa aren't flipping out over costars Christina Hall and Josh Hall's divorce. 

The HGTV couple—who recently announced that they'll be facing off against Christina and Josh in their new The Flip Off competition show—confirmed that the series will go on despite their castmates' breakup.

However, as Heather noted in an exclusive E! News video, the show will now just be "us against her."

"But we support her," the Selling Sunset star shared of their off-camera dynamic, with her husband saying that he's confident Christina will "get through this" challenging chapter of personal life.

"Life's tough, s--t happens," Tarek—who was married to Christina from 2009 to 2018—continued. "We got one shot at life and we gotta do what's best for us, so whatever she needs, we're here to help."

Indeed, Tarek and Christina have developed a friendly relationship in recent years as they co-parent kids Taylor, 13, and Brayden, 8. In fact, Heather will even side with Christina instead of Tarek on occasions.

"We do like to gang up on him," Heather told E!, with Tarek joking that it's likely "at some point, it'll be the girls against me" on The Flip Off.

"Interactions were fairly limited on camera," he admitted, adding that he doesn't really have the details on how the show will address Christina and Josh's split. "There's a lot of really funny scenes though."

Tarek added, "The show's going to be a lot of fun."
