EXCLUSIVEChristina Hall pictured for FIRST TIME since split from Josh Hall as glum HGTV star DITCHES wedding ring ahead of third divorce

Christina Hall was seen for the first time since her shock divorce from Joshua Hall was revealed - as the star ditched her wedding ring.

The thrice-wed reality star, 41, whose split from Joshua, 44, was revealed on Tuesday, failed to raise a smile as she walked with her dog on Tuesday while flashing her ring-free finger.

She wore an all-black ensemble which flashed her abs and showed off a cryptic tattoo of a heart-shaped lock on her hand - which appeared to be in the process of being removed.

It is unclear when the star got the romantic inking - although now-estranged husband Josh has an 'infinity ring' tattooed on his wedding finger. 

The star wore her blonde locks in soft waves and sported shades as she took a series of serious calls.

A source dished to PEOPLE that Josh and Christina 'had issues in the marriage for quite some time' before Tuesday's divorce filing.

This comes exactly four months after Josh declared on Instagram that he and his wife were 'still going strong' after tying the knot in October 2021.

TMZ claimed that the Christina In The Country TV stars submitted their paperwork in Orange County, California on Tuesday. The ex lovebirds stated July 8 was their first day of separation.

Joshua is asking for alimony from Christina and does not want to have to give her any money, the site added.

It was also claimed that Joshua has asked the court to 'divvy up what was theirs respectively before they got married.'

The reality TV stars wed in October 2021 in Maui, Hawaii and have no children together.

This will be a third divorce for Christina who was previously married to Tarek El Moussa (2009-2018) and Ant Anstead (2018-2021).

This comes after Christina and Joshua signed on to star on the 2025 HGTV renovation show The Flip Off with her ex Tarek and his new wife Heather Rae El Moussa.

Christina and Tarek built a home-flipping empire during their show Flip Or Flop which lasted 10 seasons. But it ended after a very publicized divorce.

This year they have been working together again on the new spinoff called The Flip Off with Tarek's wife Heather and Christina's now estranged spouse Joshua.

The show is set to air on HGTV in early 2025 with a two-hour premiere.

'During the series, Tarek and Christina, along with Heather and Josh will compete to see who can find, buy, renovate and flip a house for the biggest financial gain (and a chance at major bragging rights),' HGTV said on its site.

Christina and Joshua seemed to be doing well earlier this summer as they were seen with her children in Instagram posts.

In March they were seen holding each other and kissing when on the beach in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico.

They were also pictured kissing in the ocean.

'Weekend getaways to Cabo with you are my favorite. (love how it worked out & we traded couple pics on the beach with a professional photographer @allysimonsphoto),' she wrote in her caption as she pointed out she was staying at the Montage in Santa Maria Bay, Los Cabos San Lucas.

Josh also posted: 'Still going strong…03/2024⏪️03/2023⏪️03/2022⏪️03/2021. Cred: @ruthfernandez5.'

Christina then responded to his post: 'Stilllll love you & Cabo.'

And Christina also has son Hudson, three, with ex-husband Ant Anstead, who now romances Renee Zellweger.

'Family vacation last week. Not ready (but ready) for kids to go back to school,' she said in her caption.

Last year he gushed over her on her birthday.

'Happy 40th Birthday to my absolute stunner of a wife!' shared the hunky TV star who appears with her on her shows. 

'This woman has accomplished so much, inspired so many and continues to impress me daily. 

'I can’t say enough about what an absolute force she is and what she is capable of. 

'Christina is about to make her 40’s the best decade of her life and looking better than ever while doing it!

'I’m a lucky man and thank my lucky stars that she chose me to take this ride with her that is now our life. Ride or die baby, love you more than anything ❤️.

And she made a post too.

'Had the best 40th birthday celebration thanks to my husband and best friend,' Christina wrote on Instagram of her spouse.  

'I walked into the most incredible party where they thought of everything and made all my champagne dreams come true. 

'I feel very lucky to have such amazing people in my life.

'Going into this new decade my goal is to slow the f*** down,' she continued. 'Enjoy the small moments and not rush through life. Take it easier on myself and mostly have fun and enjoy the ride.'
