thank you! I honestly don't get it.

But I dislike the other HGTV couples, too - the Gaines (I realize this one is unpopular as they seem to be beloved) and the couple from HomeTown.

I just was truly annoyed when they kept pushing she and Tarek as a couple when everyone was aware of their not so nice split

I'm the PP you replied to. I don't care for Chip and Joanna, either, but I do like Ben and Erin and think they're talented. His woodworking is beautiful and her graphic designs (she had her own business before the show) were, too.

Tarek’s new blond won an Oscar?!

People like Christina did exactly this when they were single women and unencumbered. Went from boyfriend to boyfriend quickly. She and Tareq met in 2006 and moved into together the same month they started dating. Which was right after she broke up with her college boyfriend.

It just looks trashy now because children are involved.

Oh well.

She has a great body after 3 kids and paying a plastic surgeon $50,000.

Its her job to be on TV and look good. You don't see anyone on Selling Sunset with an overweight BMI either.

I'm the opposite. I can't stand Ben/Erin or their show. I was yelling at the TV yesterday - their renovation is so shoddy and bad. They literally paint over 50-year-old siding, patch holes in rotten wood floors, leave piping and electricity untouched, and just put in a new load-bearing beam or two into porches with sagging slats everywhere.

The other day they were replacing a window and discovered it was infested with insects. They were afraid it was termites, and it turned out to be ants that they just sprayed for.

My question was - what would have happened had they not taken the damned window out and it was termites? They would have just kept painting and tiling without even realize the house was falling apart?

Ben and Erin are worse than flippers. They're dangerous.

They'd have less problems if they just looked for a man 20 years older than them and married him. But that wouldn't go with the image they want of the young, fun family.

Why are celebrities (well, sort of in her case) so incredibly against being single?

I think its more than just 'celebrities' its women (and men) whose entire identity is based on being seen as a 'beautiful family' complete with a husband/fiance who proposes in under a year.

Look at Jennifer Lopez, Rachel Hollis, Eva Amurri (HappilyEvaAfter), Meghan Edmonds King, and yes - Christina.

All of them practically moved a boyfriend right in post-partum in the case of the last three.

And for what?? They can all provide very well for themselves, and have friends, minions, and hangers-on galore. I don’t get it. I guess it is an image thing or they need to keep themselves relevant in the media.

I think they spent so much time chasing a husband when they were young that it became a defining feature in their lives 'look I'm getting married, look we're pregnant'. Then when the divorce(s) reared their ugly heads and suddenly they were single moms (the dreaded thing they secretly and not so secretly sneered at when married) they realized they're on the bottom of the social totem pole.

That and their married friends may not want to hang out as much with a pretty, single 'competitor'.

Her 1, 5, and 10-year-old's nowhere to be found as well.

Gmab. She’s allowed to have a life and go on vacation. I’m sure her kids are perfectly happy with their dads for a few days. It’s the embarrassing publicity seeking behavior and over sharing that are the problem.
