“Flip or Flop” star Christina El Moussa said she has “nothing but respect” for “Fixer Upper” alum Joanna Gaines.
Nov. 21 (UPI) — Christina El Moussa isn’t at “war” with fellow HGTV star Joanna Gaines.
The 35-year-old television personality denied reports of a feud with Gaines in an Instagram post Tuesday, saying she has “nothing but respect” for the Fixer Upper alum.
“What a load of [expletive],” El Moussa captioned a photo of a report from InTouch Weekly. “#intouchmagazine this is disgusting.”
“I have always been a huge supporter of female entrepreneurs… #girlboss is my motto. Nothing but respect for @joannagaines #goodvibesonly,” she added.
InTouch said El Moussa, who stars on Flip or Flop, was “feeling outshined” following word Gaines and her husband, Chip Gaines, will star on a new HGTV show. The couple announced the news Nov. 9 on The Tonight Show .
“We signed a non-disclosure and it said, quote-unquote, you can tell your mother, but that’s it,” Chip said during the interview. “So, Mom, I just wanted to make a quick announcement: We are coming back to television!”
Discovery, which owns HGTV, confirmed the news in a statement to CNN .
“Discovery is thrilled to confirm that we are in exclusive talks with Chip and Joanna Gaines,” the network said. “The Gaineses are exceptional people, true authentic storytellers and creative visionaries who will nourish millions of people with quality, family-friendly programing accessible on a 24/7 network and across all screens.”
Fixer Upper ended in April after a five-season run on HGTV. Gaines and Chip welcomed their fifth child, son Crew, in June.
