The Flip or Flop star showed off her new beau as she made out with him outside Los Angeles restaurant Baltaire last Thursday, as seen in pictures shared by Backgrid. The news comes weeks after a source told the Daily Mail that Haack had been “secretly” dating Larocca amid her messy divorce from Josh Hall.
The three-time divorcee has been candid about her previous relationships in interviews. Last month, she chatted to her first husband, Tarek El Moussa, on his show, The Flip Off, about her romance woes. “I feel like I try to hide and act like I’m not affected but then I just do more stupid things to try to make myself feel better,” she explained. “I just keep doing it and getting into things too fast that I know aren’t right.”
The 41-year-old said she “never wanted to get divorced”. “I’m the only person in my family to ever get a divorce,” she said. “So I just felt like it’s safe to be back in a relationship, but ultimately, that was not safe either.”
Either way, she seems smitten with her new man. Here’s what we know about him.
Christopher Larocca is the president and CEO of Network Connex
