Christina Hall claims ex husband Josh Hall transferred $35k from her bank account – as he breaks his silence amid messy divorce

After filing for divorce twice in a row, Christina Hall is accusing her ex-husband Josh Hall of transferring $35,000 of her money into his bank account.

According to the legal documents obtained by ANDthe 41-year-old HGTV personality claimed, “Josh was able to transfer over $35,000 of my separate rental income into his account.”

She further wrote in the court filing: “I am asking Josh to account for the stolen funds and to repay them to me as these funds are specifically being used to pay loans, obligations, property taxes, insurance and maintenance on these rental properties.”

The money came from Christina’s various rental properties in Tennessee, which Josh, 43, was reportedly able to obtain via a text message he sent to the property manager on July 8. This is a significant date, as Josh claims it was the date they broke up, while Christina says it was the 7th.

Josh’s text read, “Hi. For payments in June, can we have the money sent to another account when the time comes? Thank you,” with the “we” seemingly indicating that both he and his soon-to-be ex-wife agreed to the request.

Also on Thursday, Christina posted a glamorous profile picture of herself with a prayer emoji in her caption.

According to legal documents obtained by ET, the 41-year-old HGTV personality alleges, “Josh was able to transfer over $35,000 of my separate rental income into his account.”

However, Christina, who included a screenshot of the message as evidence with her report, said she did not hear about the transfer until July 21.

She noted in her documents that she had “no personal contact with Josh on July 8, 2024,” adding, “I would not have asked him to send my money to himself the day after I told him we were getting a divorce.”

Additionally, she explained that the property manager executed the request “under the assumption that I had approved the account change and requested account information, and Josh provided his own account with Wells Fargo Bank.”

The documents were filed in Orange County Superior Court in California and the mother of three has asked a judge to order Josh to pay back the money.

She also wants exclusive use of the Newport Beach, California, home she once shared with her ex.

She acknowledges that the house is in both their names, but claims the money she used to buy the house came from the sale of a home she owned in Dana Point.

Christina also said that Josh’s attorney sent her a letter demanding that she “preserve electronic evidence without it being automatically deleted” from their home cameras, according to ET.

Christina responded, “I unplugged the cameras so the system wouldn’t automatically overwrite the hard drive. Every time Josh came home, he plugged the cameras back in, allowing him to keep an eye on me and my kids. I object to him having that access to my home.”

The Flip or Flop star also took action against alimony demands, stating on the record: “I understand that this court may at some point require me to pay alimony to Josh and reasonable attorney fees to his counsel.

However, I believe this is a simple case with simple accounting over a short period, [therefore] ‘All costs and fees must be kept to a minimum.’

It added: ‘Like all hardworking mothers, my life revolves around my children and my work. It is my understanding that Josh has his own income and therefore should not require spousal support from me.

“He has sufficient equity to pay his own attorney fees and costs. I am frankly shocked and concerned that on July 8, 2024, he transferred over $35,000 of my separate property money into his separate account.

“The fact that this is the same date he is now claiming as our date of separation, even though it is actually July 7, 2024, makes it clear why he chose the following day.”

Christina wonders, “What else don’t I know about his financial situation? That’s why I’m having a full forensic accounting done for the entire duration of our marriage.”
