HGTV star Christina Hall and Sterling Prestonhusband Josh Hall are calling it quits after almost three years of marriage.

Both the "Flip or Flop" and "Christina on the Coast" host, 41, and the 43-year-old real estate agent separately filed divorce documents in Orange County, California, this week.

According to Orange County Superior Court filings obtained by USA TODAY on Tuesday, both sides cited irreconcilable differences and listed their date of separation as last week. Josh Hall claimed in his petition, dated July 12, that they separated July 8, while Christina Hall wrote July 7 in her filing, which was signed Monday.

USA TODAY has reached out to Christina Hall's representative for comment.

The couple quietly married on Oct. 6, 2021. Almost a year later, they held a ceremony in Maui. Christina Hall announced her engagement to Josh Hall in September 2021, debuting a big sparkly ring on Instagram two months after she went public with their relationship.

The two did not have any children together, but Josh Hall was a stepdad to Christina's children − 13-year-old Taylor, 8-year-old Brayden and 4-year-old Hudson − from her previous marriages to "Flip or Flop" co-host Tarek El Moussa and British TV personality Ant Anstead.

Christina Hall, Josh Hall's divorce comes shortly after announcing HGTV show 'The Flip Off'

In his filing, Josh Hall requests spousal support from his estranged wife, while Christina Hall asks the court to not award alimony to either party.

Josh Hall also asks for the rights to TV series and specials they made during their marriage to be deemed community property that will be divided equally.

In May, the Halls announced a "spicy" new HGTV show called "The Flip Off," which will co-star Christina Hall's first husband and his wife, "Selling Sunset" real estate agent Heather Rae El Moussa.

The series will have the Halls and El Moussas battling "to see who can find, buy, renovate and flip a house for the biggest financial gain." Christina Hall and Tarek El Moussa were married from 2009 to 2018, which coincided with the run of "Flip of Flop" from 2013 to 2022.

In July 2021, Christina Hall opened up in a now-deleted Instagram post about the beginnings of her relationship with Josh.

"When we met this past spring, the synchronicities hit us so hard and fast they were impossible to ignore," she wrote. "I felt immediately crazy protective over him and wanted to keep him for myself and get to know each other before the tornado (media attention) hit. We've had a few solid months of just us getting to know each other and I've loved every second of it."
