Christina Hall’s Ex Josh Hall Debuts New GF Stephanie Gabrys Amid Bitter Divorce Battle
Giving romance another shot! Josh Hall debuted his new girlfriend amid his bitter divorce from Christina Haack (formerly Hall).
Josh, 44, hard launched his relationship with Stephanie Gabrys in an Instagram Story on Monday, January 13. It showed the model sitting atop the former TLC star’s lap in front of a roaring outdoor fire pit. Josh wrote at the bottom of the photo, “Happy 35h to this real life angel,” while tagging his new lady.
The pair were dressed for chilly weather, with Stephanie donning a hat with a pom-pom on top and fuzzy boots. Rolling mountains could be seen behind the couple, who appeared to be on a balcony as the top of a tall Christmas tree was visible in the background.
Josh seems to have a type, as Stephanie looks nearly identical to Christina, 41. Both are stunning blondes with blonde hair and trim figures. Stephanie’s Instagram page is filled with numerous modeling photos, primarily in bikinis and other swimwear.
The Flip Off star has been living in Leipers Fork, Tennessee, after filing for divorce from Christina on July 15, 2024, listing their date of separation as July 8, 2024. Christina followed suit the next day, filing her own paperwork with the Orange County Superior Court in California.
“Josh met someone wonderful in Nashville, and they have been happily dating for some time,” a source told Us Weekly on January 10.
“He hasn’t made a show of the relationship, but it’s not a secret. Josh is just low-key,” the insider told the outlet. “He is very happy with his life and looking forward to 2025 and what’s on the horizon. This is the happiest he’s been in some time.”
The source also noted that Josh “wasn’t trying to date,” but when he came across Stephanie, he found his “perfect match.”
Josh going public with his new romance came after Christina admitted their divorce battle is about to get even uglier.
“[We’re] not even close,” she said on the Sunday, January 12, episode of Radio Andy’s Jeff Lewis Live about any chance of a settlement. “We’re going to be going to trial, I hear. He doesn’t want to do mediation. It’s gonna be fun. Can’t wait.”
The Christina on the Coast star said she fears she’ll end up having to pay Josh’s attorney fees. “They haven’t ordered me yet, but he’s been asking. I’ve already had to give a little something,” she revealed.
Christina went on to accuse Josh of wasting what money she has given him on a flashy new car.
“I gave him money to live and then he bought a Bentley, but then he also doesn’t have a job,” California native explained. “But he drives a Bentley, so I’m sure he’s pulling a lot of chicks.”
Josh and Christina started dating in March 2021, six months after she split from second husband Ant Anstead in September 2020. The Beach Bargains star made her then-boyfriend Instagram official in July 2024, telling haters that she was saying yes to “another relationship,” as she and Ant, 45, finalized their divorce the month prior.
The former couple’s whirlwind romance moved at warp speed. They got engaged in September 2021 and married the following month, a fact that was only revealed in Josh’s divorce paperwork. Christina and Josh went on to have a formal wedding in Hawaii in 2022, while fans were unaware the pair was already married.
The Christina in the Country star found romance again after her split from Josh, as she’s currently dating Orange County businessman Christopher Larocca.
“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,” an insider told Life & Style on Tuesday, January 14.
“Christina had a very tumultuous break up with Josh, she’s still going through it, but at the end of the day, she deserves happiness,” the source continued. “And you have to give her credit for not giving up on love. She’s already told friends not to worry, she won’t be rushing into another marriage. She’s learned her lesson, now she says she wants to be engaged for at least five years.”
