Ant Anstead Sends Best Wishes To Tarek And Heather El Moussa Following Pregnancy Announcement

TV presenter, Ant Anstead joined the droves of well-wishers to congratulate Tarek and Heather Rae El Moussa. Tarek and Heather announced they were expecting their first child together after getting married in October last year. They declined to mention the sex of their child, preferring to instead wait till the birth.

Tarek was previously married to Anstead's ex-wife, Christina Hall, in 2009. The duo divorced in 2016 after having two children, Brayden, six and Taylor, 11.

Anstead and Tarek have maintained a cordial relationship following the end of their respective marriages with the tv show host.

Heather first announced the pregnancy on her Instagram and was shortly followed by Tarek on his page. During their pregnancy announcement, Anstead congratulated the couple along with their family and friends, revealing he was thrilled about the news.

Anstead congratulated Tarek and Heather on the news that they were expecting their first child together. Heather announced the new addition to their home on her Instagram page and shared pictures of the family's photo shoot.

Tarek also announced the news on his page with the caption, "Surprise!!! Baby El Moussa coming early 2023!!" The two posts received several congratulatory messages from their family, friends, and co-stars.

One of the many congratulatory messages was from Anstead, who was previously married and shared a child with the tv personality's ex-wife, Hall. The congratulatory post read, "Huge congratulations, you two! Thrilled for you all!"

Prior to his marriage to Heather, Tarek was married to Hall and had two children with the television show host. The former couple separated in 2016, and by 2018, they finalized their divorce. Tarek married Heather in 2021 after meeting in 2014.

Although Heather had her hands full with the tv personality's children from his previous marriage, she soon decided to have her own child with him. During her recent interview with People, she said, "But as your love grows more and more and you fall deeper in love with someone, and you build this life together, I started picturing myself having a child with Tarek."

She revealed that at that point, she started thinking of having a baby with "the man I'm in love with."

"I'm just obsessed with my kids. They're my everything, so having another one is just icing on the cake. I'm so excited," Tarek added.

After the failed marriage with her "Flip Or Flop" co-host, Tarek, Hall met Anstead via a mutual friend and started dating a while later. They kept the relationship private for three months before making it public.

They tied the knot privately at their California home in New Port Beach.

The former couple were married for two years and had a son, Hudson, due to the union.

Anstead and Hall announced their divorce a year after welcoming their son via their respective Instagram accounts.

By early 2021, the duo announced that they were co-parenting their son, and things were going amicably. Anstead told People, "There's never been a scenario where I've asked for him and not had him and vice versa."

During a September 2021 interview with People Magazine, Anstead shed light on why he had such a good relationship with Tarek and Heather. According to the "Celebrity IOU: Joyride" star, the relationship resulted from the months he spent co-parenting Taylor and Brayden during his marriage with Hall.

The television presenter further revealed that despite not being with Hall, he still thought of the children as his. "I'm a big supporter of modern-day parenting. I'm a big supporter of modern families," he said.

The television presenter continued, "I think it's amazing how generations evolve to fit within the current times, and right now, we live in a time where blended families are common, and ultimately you have to have relationships that are healthy with all this extended family. And by default, I've inherited an extended family [in Tarek and Heather]."

Anstead continued, "To treat them in any other way would be dishonorable. I'm really proud of how we all kind of manage that modern blend."
