Subject: Mom VS Step mom
Spill It to BravoandCocktails.com: The reason for the fight is simple. Mom wants stepmom to know her place. She is sick of communicating with only her and not her ex husband. She is sick of the posting. She is sick of her act. Mom has had it with stepmom and in this most recent situation where emotions were obviously high as everyone is upset mom just lost it. Let’s see if stepmom acts any better going forward!

Heather always refers to the kids as “my kids”/“our kids” which seemed odd to me. My step parent never did that. Maybe seeing that on the reunion that just dropped got Christina upset again…?
Looks like they got in a screaming match over the weekend. I get she’s the new Mrs buuuut I’m willing to bet Christina 2.0 oversteps all the time.
I thought it was weird how she constantly talked about being a mom and raising her kids. Like Christina is not also a reality star that we see with her children.
Thank you for cleaning things up Christina! Keep us updated lol

Christina + Heather
Christina and heather el moussa
Christina with all the last names and Heather. All of them are thirsty for attention but Tarek and Heather always appear awkwardly posed to me.
Heather was talking on the reunion as if she was the mom, not the step mom ? this girl REALLY needs to know her place… imagine how much she would suffer if they break up!?
? So agree with this!! I am a mom and stepmom, and for me they are all my boys. No one gets treated differently. They already suffered through divorces, so we (all parents involved) try to give them the best example of family unity. That’s what makes co parenting work and that is was caused less stress on the kids (not having to see the parents argue). I would rather my sons be treated kindly and be loved from their stepmom rather than be treated like they were not wanted.
Ugh all these comments. You’re all aware that a divorce is a choice parents make, not kids. How are you supposed to move forward when everyone is claiming ownership over the children. How about we ALL parent as if they’re are own children. Odd concept right? And yeah, I’m divorced, my daughter has 2 moms, 2 dads, I support her relationship with her dad and mom in that home & they in ours. The child never feels she’s betraying anyone and I don’t ever make her (step)mom feel like she has no place. In her home, that is her daughter and she’s raising her. These comments of “know your place,” disgraceful. As women we should do better for our children and our future.
Rant over.
Girl, yes!!! All of this!!! At least one person on this thread is normal. I’m sure it’s so hard to adapt but all is in the best interest of the children!!
Yes omg. I always make a point as step mom to celebrate their mom. We make Mother’s Day gifts and birthday presents for her. I take them for lunch at her office sometimes. But you can’t tell me that those aren’t also “my kids”. Because when they’re in our home, I’m the one kissing booboos and cuddling them when they have nightmares.
What idiots to be fighting over the privilege of being their parents! My bonus son called me mom the minute I married my husband. He calls his moms husband dad. It bothers none of us. How amazing he has FOUR loving parents. It’s not a freaking competition
Someone had to say it!
Maybe Tarek & Heather shouldn’t be publicly insulting Christina in the press and on tv. Saying that Heather is the “hotter, richer version” of Christina and Tarek saying that she’s a “washed-up loser” and that he “made”her. How do you successfully co-parent when two of the four are insulting and degrading the kids actual mom. When the kids are old enough to google their parents I think they’ll be disappointed at their dad and stepmom.
Exactly. And how do they think that will make Taylor feel when she is the spitting image of her mom.
As a stepmom, you need to know your place. Sounds like a lot of immaturity & insecurity on heather’s part. Christina isn’t going anywhere, she’s always going to be their mom. You can’t just jump in and change that ??♀️
Thank you! Step mom here too! The kids need to know they are absolutely loved by all, but there are times that step parents need to step aside
As a step mom you should know your place but if you see that the real mom can’t play the part of a real mom and only wants in when it’s continent, of course you will step in.
Ant called out Christina for being less than involved and I’m sure this is the case for the other side
Maybe Heather feels like Christine has checked out of parenting? Ant her ex feels that way and wants full custody of his Son. Does Josh Hall have any children? I heard Hall on IG yelling at a dog to “get away” causing Hudson to say the same thing mimicking Hall. He doesn’t want the kids just his new bride. SAD!
heather is more in love with being part of a family than she is with tarek. if those kids didn’t exist, would she even be with him? she’s so annoying to me
Been there. I do all the communicating with my husband’s ex. Why? NOT because I’m trying to control anything. But because he can’t stand her and doesn’t want to talk to her. All I’m doing is communicating necessary stuff and keeping the peace. I don’t like it, but it is what it is. I’m sure there are bonus moms and dads out there doing the same because they do want to control. But I wouldn’t assume anything here.
Such an interesting point that I relate to sooo much. I’m the child of a second marriage (first marriage was at 19 which “made/produced/whatever the proper term” three amazing half-siblings), but my dad can barely stand to be in a room with his ex-wife. They severely dislike each other. My dad is the most gentle/avoid conflict person so it’s just hard for him to interact with her after everything that happened (verrrry long backstory)…I guess I just want to second your comment that sometimes it’s actually easier for stepmom and birth (real) mom to communicate than for ex-spouses to communicate. It’s not as if anyone is vindictive or evil, but, in my case, communication broke down between my dad and his ex-wife and my mom stepped in. Not to say Heather is in the right, but there are many situations where exes prefer not to communicate/only communicate through the court mandated system of monitored emails/texts so if someone can step in to take that role without getting the court involved, great! But I also agree with every comment…it’s really really weird she refers to them as “her” children. Totally get that they are, in a way, hers….but I’m pretty positive she literally said in a scene on SS that “her children” are so adorable/going to a party for “her” children. She can 100% be the most amazing stepmom but I would tire of her ownership of her step kids/my kids. Sorry, rant over. I guess I just feel like I lucked out in a second marriage situation and even though my dad/his ex-wife aren’t besties, there’s no love lost between me and my siblings and for that I’m grateful.
Christina is so fake. I used to love her but not anymore. It’s ironic after the news leaked that she only spent a week out of a month with her baby she started posting pictures everyday. I guarantee she’s the one sending this stuff in. Wouldn’t be surprised is Tarik and Heather have the older kids more than she does. Nothing wrong with a step mom loving on your children but I guess Christina is prob the one whose insecure and jealous. Why else would you get mad?
Ya know this one is really hard for me cause I see things on both sides. I’m the mom and my exes wife from the very beginning has plastered my daughter all over social media like she’s such a great bonus mom blah blah while being extremely controlling over my ex husband and being way too involved in our parenting relationship. She likes a image and the image isn’t the reality. Not that I necessarily think that that is how Heather is per say. But ya know it pisses me off just like it probably pisses Christina off.
it BLOWS my mind that Heather insists all communication go through her, and that Tarek is okay with that. it’s the most insecure, petty, gatekeepy move I’ve seen and only makes Heather look even more nuts that she already is.
Nothing wrong with step moms loving on their step kids. But Heather takes it way too far with demanding communication thru her and the social media posts
