In a recent interview, Hall is opening up about how she was able to continue filming with her ex-husband Tarek El Moussa following their split. “There were hard, tense days, but it wasn’t a reality show based on a marriage; it was still about the houses, so that made it easier,” Hall told Us Weekly. “We had to show up, do our jobs and then went home and didn’t have to talk to each other.” Hall starred with El Moussa on Flip or Flop for 10 seasons and in the same interview, she recalled how she got started on television. “The short version is Tarek submitted information to the production company we were with [during] Flip or Flop.
