Christina Haack opened up on social media this week, sharing her personal journey of self-discovery and growth in relationships. The HGTV star revealed that she recently learned about having an anxious attachment style and how co-dependency has been a challenge in her past relationships. She reflected on how difficult it has been for her to adjust to her current relationship with boyfriend Christopher Larocca, who is independent, has his own hobbies, and doesn’t show signs of jealousy—traits Haack isn’t used to.
Haack acknowledged that at 41, she is finally understanding the importance of healthy communication, independence within commitment, and not rushing into intense relationship dynamics. She confessed that she has often put pressure on others in the past and is now focused on working on herself, addressing her insecurities, and doing what she called “shadow work” to break the cycle of unhealthy relationship patterns.
Having been married three times and raising children with her previous partners, Haack’s post emphasizes her commitment to personal growth and creating a healthier, more balanced relationship. It’s refreshing to see her be so open about her journey—do you think it’s powerful for someone in the public eye to share this kind of personal reflection?
