'Heather is on maternity leave': Tarek El Moussa shares update as 'The Flipping El Moussa' halts filming
NEWPORT BEACH, CALIFORNIA: Heather Rae El Moussa is prepping herself to go on maternity leave! Husband, Tarek El Moussa, took to Instagram to share the news and how things will change for the couple, work-wise.
Heather may have found filming her new HGTV show, 'The Flipping El Moussa', bittersweet because her maternity leave is fast approaching. Tarek took to Instagram on Tuesday, January 17, to update his followers that production for their new series had been halted due to "some construction delays/permit issues." This has made things tough, and their goal of completing "10 projects together" has become a lost cause. However, the former 'Flip or Flop' star seems delighted as he shared that the premiere date of 'The Flipping El Moussa' will be announced soon.
