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

Following their back-to-back divorce filings, Christina Hall has now accused estranged husband Josh Hall of transferring $35,000 of her money into his bank account.

Per legal documents obtained by ET, the 41-year-old HGTV personality has claimed, 'Josh was able to divert over $35,000 of my separate property rental income into his account.'

She went on to say in the court paperwork, 'I am asking for Josh to account for the funds taken and return them to me as those funds are specifically used to pay any loans, obligations, property taxes, insurance, and maintenance for these rental properties.'

The money came from Christina's various rental properties around Tennessee, which Josh, 43, was allegedly able to obtain via a text sent to the property manager on July 8 — a significant date as Josh claims it to be their date of separation while Christina says it was the 7th.

The text message from Josh read, 'Hi. For June payments, can we please get it sent to a different account when it's time? Thank you,' with the 'we' seemingly indicating that both he and his soon-to-be ex-wife were on board with the request.

Also on Thursday, Christina posted a glamorous profile photo of herself as she added a prayer emoji in her caption.

However, Christina, who included a screenshot of the message as evidence in her filing, said she found out about the transfer on 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 himself my money the day after I told him we are getting divorced.'

Furthermore, she explained the property manager followed through with the request 'believing I had authorized the change of accounts and asked for account details and Josh provided his own Wells Fargo Bank account.'

The documents were filed in Orange County Superior Court in California, and the mother-of-three has requested that a judge order Josh to return the money. 

Additionally, she is seeking exclusive use of the Newport Beach, California, residence she and her ex once shared. 

She recognizes that the home is titled in both of their names, but maintains that the money used to purchase the home came from the sale of a house in Dana Point that she owned.

In another twist, Christina shared that Josh's attorney sent her a letter demanding that she keep 'electronic evidence without it being automatically deleted' from their home cameras, per ET.

Christina noted in response, 'I unplugged cameras so the system would not automatically overwrite the hard drive. Each time Josh has returned to the house he has plugged the cameras back in, which would allow him to keep me and my children under surveillance. I object to him having that access into my home.'

The Flip or Flop star also got in front of spousal support orders, officially stating, 'I understand that at some point this court may require that I pay some spousal support to Josh and reasonable attorney's fees to his counsel.

'However, it is my belief that this is a simple case with straightforward accounting over a short period of time, [therefore] any fees and costs should be minimal.'

It was added, 'Like all hard-working mothers, my life revolves around my children and my work. It is my understanding that Josh has his own income and therefore he should not need any spousal support from me. 

'He has sufficient assets of his own to pay his own attorney's fees and costs. Quite frankly I am shocked and concerned by the fact that he has diverted over $35,000 of my separate property money to his separate account on July 8, 2024. 

'The fact that this is the same date he now alleges to be our date of separation, even though it is actually July 7, 2024, makes it clear why he chose the next day.'

Following the diversion of cash, Christina says she is now wondering 'what else I am not aware of as it relates to his financial situation and that is why I am having a full forensic accounting performed for the entire term of our marriage.'
