Christina Haack’s (formerly Hall) marriage to Josh Hall took a surprise turn in July 2024 when the pair filed for divorce just two months after their new competition show, The Flip Off, was announced. The HGTV star wasn’t single for long as by early 2025, Christina already began dating her new boyfriend, Christopher Larocca.
Who Is Christina Haack’s New Boyfriend After Josh Hall Split?
Christopher is a California businessman and has been the president and chief executive officer of Network Connex since 2021. The Illinois-based company is a “global leader in communications infrastructure design, implementation and future-proofing,” according to its website.
“He has more than 20 years of experience successfully leading and managing highly profitable, growth-oriented companies,” his biography boasts. “He held CEO and executive management positions at Dover Corporation, General Electric and Luminance Brands. He holds an MBA from the University of Southern California and a BS in Civil Engineering from Clemson University.”
Christopher is a single father to a 17-year-old daughter. He was married to his ex-wife for eight years before their divorce in January 2015, per The Daily Mail.
When Did Christina Haack and Christopher Larocca Start Dating?
Christina had reportedly been dating Christopher “for a few months,” when The Daily Mail confirmed their relationship on January 10, 2025.
“They’re always together and out and about around Newport,” a source told the outlet. “They even have traveled abroad and visited other countries together.” The insider was “surprised” the news of their relationship hadn’t already gone public since “they certainly don’t hide that they’re together.”
Christina and Christopher had made various public outings before news of their relationship made headlines. The Daily Mail showed a photo of the couple attending a Christmas party hosted by Laguna Beach, California, lifestyle influencer Amy Sexton on December 14, 2024. The outlet also reported that the pair had already taken trips overseas together, including one to Italy in October 2024. Christina posted a photo from the trip on her social media profiles at the time but didn’t indicate she was with anyone.
That same month, sources told Life & Style that Christina planned to take her relationship with Christopher slow and wouldn’t “be rushing into another marriage.”
“Christina has wasted no time in getting her personal life back on track. She’s dating Christopher Larocca, who she’s been friends with for a while,” the insider explained on January 14, 2025. “He’s divorced and raising a teenager with his ex-wife, and as far as I know, he’s completely smitten with Christina and vice versa.”
According to the source, Christina said she “learned her lesson” in regards to jumping into marriages, and wants “to be engaged for at least five years.”
Christina and Christopher Were Photographed for the First Time in Public
Days after their relationship reveal, Christina and Christopher were spotted for the first time in public while boarding a plane. In the photos obtained by The Daily Mail, The Flip Off star and tech CEO were seen getting out of a limousine on the tarmac at LAX on January 14, 2025. Chris appeared at ease with his new flame, gently placing his hand on Christina’s back as he guided her toward the plane’s steps.
