Christina Haack is determined not to let life pass her by! The 42-year-old Flip or Flop alum has been enjoying a tropical getaway with her boyfriend-of-a-year, Chris Larocca, and their friends.
She took to Instagram to share envy-inducing snapshots of their vacation and left fans saying the same thing.
Christina posed in a series of bikini-clad images and added PDA packed photos with Chris too.
The HGTV star looked tanned and toned in a white bikini and also modeled a hot pink two-piece which she teamed with a mesh cover-up.
The group looked to be enjoying every second of their champagne-fueled adventure and Christina captioned the post: "Living my champagne life to the fullest."
Fans added "on-fire" emojis and asked for her workout routine, but most were fixated with how happy she looked. They wrote: "You look happy," and, "you shine differently with him."
Christina has been dating Chris for a year, after her messy divorce from her third husband, Josh Hall. While the former couple don't have any children together, Christina is a mom to Taylor and Brayden from her marriage to Tarek El Moussa, and Hudson who she shares with her second husband, Ant Anstead.
She's been open about feeling embarrassed that her marriages haven't worked and recently wrote a lengthy post about the growth she is undergoing.
"I just wanted to thank you all for still being here. This past decade for me has been a whirlwind and, at times, a total circus," before declaring: "In early 2024 I decided it was time to get off the roller coaster."
She confessed: "Since then I've gone through many battles with myself and my ego. Biggest battle has been embarrassment. Embarrassment over allowing myself to be treated certain ways and having 3 failed marriages - Trust me that one hurts and still at times makes me cringe. I've had to forgive myself and trust that things happen for a reason."
"I had to finally look myself in the mirror, do the work (with my amazing life coach) and ultimately decide to take ownership over my choices and most importantly- to forgive myself," Christina further shared, adding: "I am still a work in progress but I can say that one thing has changed, I don't have anxiety. And this came from self awareness within (not from smoking a toad or trying a quick fix)."
"I've had the wind knocked out of me so many times I'm shocked I'm still happy, motivated, and excited about life. But I am. I'll credit this to wanting to change, putting in the work to better understand myself, and only surrounding myself with people who are also happy, motivated and genuinely want me to succeed. That last one is SO important," she emphasized.
"I've been tested, humbled, and reminded of what truly matters: my kids (especially communication and them ultimately learning from my mistakes), my inner circle, and NEVER giving up on my dreams!" she went on, and concluded with: "If you're in the tornado, don't give up. I promise if you decide to make a change and stick with it, life can truly be peaceful, FUN and free."
