"Flip or Flop" hosts Tarek and Christina El Moussa recently met with a life coach to help them deal with their divorce.
According to TMZ, the estranged couple were spotted having dinner with Tim Storey in Orange County last week. Sources close to the pair claim that they got a life coach to discuss about their highly publicized split. The sit-down was allegedly Tarek's idea because Storey has already been helping him cope with the breakup. It is reported that Tarek wanted to bring Christina in to the conversation to talk about their friendship and co-parenting. The meeting was not recorded for the show, and the sources stressed that the goal of the meetup was not to get back together.
An acclaimed author/motivational speaker, Storey has worked with a lot of popular celebrities in the past like Kanye West, Charlie Sheen, and Robert Downey Jr. He also had a guest spot on "Oprah" back in 2015.
After the renovation duo's breakup in late 2016, more eyes have been keeping track of the El Moussa couple's personal and TV lives. Tarek and Christina are proving that the show must go on, as HGTV is reportedly planning to make more seasons of "Flip or Flop" in the coming years.
"They were convinced when the news broke about their separating that it was going to hurt the show, especially as more details about their fighting and the nature of their relationship came out," an insider tells E! News. "Everyone thought it would be their last season, but ratings and ad sales for the show skyrocketed."
Some fans initially thought that HGTV will drop "Flip or Flop" after Tarek and Christina's divorce because viewers might no longer tune in to the show. However, what happened was the complete opposite, as the program's ratings even went higher since the stars' breakup.
"Flip or Flop" is currently airing its sixth season, and HGTV confirmed earlier this month that the next installment was in production. In addition, multiple spin-off programs set in major cities in the United States are underway.
