Heather Rae El Moussa opens up about co-parenting: ‘It wasn’t always perfect’
In a new episode of"The New Rules" with Jill Martin on TODAY, El Moussa admits she hasn't talked much about her journey as a stepparent.
"I'm a very happy, positive person, but I felt like I was always second," El Moussa says."No one ever made me feel that way, but I think when your significant other has such a long relationship with the previous spouse and a lot of love ... and it was a very public divorce and you're coming into it. You fall in love with each other, but you always kind of think of the ex. For me, I did.
The"Selling Sunset" star admits she needed to navigate her feelings,"along with falling in love with a man, raising children, getting a whole new family also filming my own TV shows." Husband Tarek El Moussa and ex-wife, Christina Hall announced their split in 2016 and finalized their divorce in 2018. The pair share two children — daughter Taylor, 12, and son Brayden, 7.
"It wasn't always perfect,' El Moussa tells TODAY of navigating her relationship with Hall."I mean, we've definitely had some ups and downs. They had ups and downs.""I think she realized how much I love the kids and they are number one to me over anything," El Moussa says."So any drama aside, the kids are the most important thing to all of us.
