Disheveled Dad At The Hotel

SOLVED!

EXCLUSIVE!

[Blind Gossip] When you stay at a hotel in Southern California, you just never know who you are going to run into!

This man is half of a duo that stars on a successful cable TV show. His marriage is over, but he has to keep working with his wife because of their financial situation.

Let’s talk about where he was a couple of weekends ago. He lives in Southern California, but instead of staying at a house, he was staying at a boutique hotel.

He came in drunk, late at night, making quite a racket in the process.

He wasn’t alone.

Late the next morning, he was seen exiting his room, bleary-eyed and disheveled, with a guest.

Wait a minute. Make that guests. Plural.

He came stumbling out of his  room with two super young girls. They looked about 18. They looked like the local FIDM (Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising) girls that show up to parties for coke. All of them were very disheveled. He looked very sheepish.

Why would he be sheepish?

What’s more classy than a Dad of two young children stumbling out of a hotel room after having a drunk night with a couple of teenagers half his age?

Don’t flip out. We are not saying that they had a threes*me.

Although there was only one bed in the room, he could have slept on the floor so that he could test out the quality of the carpeting, right? And the girls might have just been there to interview positions as an overnight nanny!

When his kids are old enough, they are going to be so proud to learn all about how Dad was so completely devoted to his business and his kids… that he spent the night in a hotel room with a couple of drunk teenage girls.

What a great guy.

Dad: Tarek El Moussa

TV Show: Flip or Flop

The divorce of Flip or Flop stars Tarek El Moussa and Christina El Moussa was just finalized. From Extra TV:

‘Flip or Flop’ Stars Christina & Tarek El Moussa Finalize Divorce

Christina and Tarek El Moussa have finalized their divorce.

While details have not yet been released, we do know what the reality stars were seeking when Tarek filed in January 2017, and Christina in August.

According to court documents obtained by “Extra,” Christina wanted joint legal and physical custody of their two children, Taylor, 7, and Brayden, 2.

She cited irreconcilable differences, and asked for spousal support and for Tarek to pay her legal fees.

Christina listed their separation date as May 23, 2016.

When Tarek filed in January, he also cited irreconcilable differences, asking for joint custody and spousal support. Christina asked that his request for spousal support be terminated.

Despite the split, the exes continue to star on HGTV’s “Flip or Flop.”

Christina has since moved on with British TV presenter Ant Anstead.

Christina may have moved on with a British TV host, but last year, Tarek El Moussa moved on with a couple of young girls!

Our blind item took place at the Landsby Hotel in Solveng, CA one weekend in March 2017.

We don’t know if they had a threes*me, but witnesses report that both girls looked like teenagers and they both spent the night in his hotel room.

Classy!

Did you catch the clues? The El Moussas are house flippers, so we included clues like “house”, “carpeting”, and “Don’t flip out.”

Congratulations to Buddypal for being first with the correct answer!

    Dad: Tarek el Moussa

    TV Show: Flip or Flop

    Clues: “don’t flip out”, test the quality of the carpet, lives in Southern California, two small children

  2. barb8571 says

    Used to love the show but can’t watch it now knowing how he treated her on set. It just makes me cringe. Too bad. Lots of others to pick from though.

  3. Marvella says

    It’s Tarek. I am kind of sympathetic toward him. He’s a cancer survior. He’s single now and he’s doing what most guys would do in his situation. He’s somewhat famous and enjoying what fame brings him. As long as he’s single good for him.

    dad tarek el moussa

    show flip or flop

    clue “don’t flip out” cable show 2 kids

    him and his wife recently divorced….they need the show because you had a blind that said they make twice the money on each house they flip on the show compared to the other houses and they were blowing through the money big time

    was just announced that they are starting another season of flip or flop after all

    Tarek El Moussa
    Flip or flop
    Clues: Don’t flip out
    I’m not a fan of his show, they do the same decor every house with heavy, dark wood and granite…..yuck!

  13. Yogapantsonly says

    So the guy is single, the girls aren’t proven underage (just ‘looked’ like teens), no drug use was seen, and the three had (presumably) consensual sex. So… what? Nothing to be ashamed of or sorry about there!

  16. pj33558 says

    Appears to be aimed at Tarek… of Flip or Flop.

    Clues: well known they have financial issues and have to keep working to pay off the yacht’s and her expensive habits/wants… and that boat…

    I always liked him but she annoyed me with her… everything from voice to … yeah, yuck. Sadly, I feel for her if this is true, not to mention those kids when they grow up.

  20. athena says

    Easy peasy-Tarek; Flip or Flop; cable show, “don’t ‘flip’ out”, 2 kids and works with wife on show- I guess now we know what he’s spending his money on…as for the show- the dynamic between the two always made me uncomfortable.

    TV Show: Flip or Flop

    Clues: working together/money issues, kids comment

    [Optional] Are you a fan of his/his show? Nope. .And haven’t been for a looong time. They are BOTH very boring and his soon-to-be ex is so annoying! TLC blew it (parden the pun) with signing them back for another season.

    I have yet to watch an episode of the show.

    A friend of mine was a Fashion Merchandising major in college. She said others on campus called them FMs for F8ck Me’s.

    Clues: “Don’t flip out,” “instead of staying at a house,” “test out the quality of the carpeting (his business is renovating and flipping houses,) “girls might have been there to interview positions as an overnight nanny,” ( he was briefly seeing his kids’ nanny.)

  29. Sour Lemon says

    TV Show: Flip or Flop

    Clues: “Don’t Flip Out”, “overnight nanny” (Tarek dated his nanny), the words floors, carpeting, racket…they all refer to gutting a house…

    I used to like the show but now it’s a tad boring…they need to change the formula

  30. calumsmom says

    Don’t flip out– clever!! It’s Tarak from Flip or Flop. And I admit to watching the show — I do like it, even though Christina’s voice is the most irritating imaginable.

  32. DenverJayhawk says

    Tarek & Christina from HGTV. Wow. I never really liked him but yikes. how skeezy.

  35. aaaSabs says

    Tarek from Flip or Flop

    There were sooo many clues lol! Southern Cali, two young kids, don’t flip out…

    I used to be. Not anymore.

  36. Laughing1 says

    Tarek El Moussa

    Flip or Flop

    Broken marriage but still working together, 2 young kids, SoCal, don’t flip out

  39. MizGrandma says

    Dad: Tarek El Moussa

    Show: Flipping Out

    Clues: “Don’t flip out;” “overnight nanny;””two young children”

    Fan? Not really, as the episodes of “Flipping Out” are formulaic, & they make a lot of stupid mistakes in their RE purchases. The couple’s design aesthetic has not really evolved since the show’s beginning. It bothers me when Tarek takes a sledgehammer to decent cabinets that could be recycled/donated.

  40. mimib says

    Tarek El Moussa

    Clues: He has to keep working with his wife because of their financial situation, 40+ year old Dad of two young children, don’t flip out, etc.

    [Optional] Are you a fan of his/his show? Not especially. Mostly bc her designs are repetitious.

  46. micabay says

    Sounds like it might be Tarek from Flip or Flop. I believe he is continuing to work on the show with the ex because of their financial situation. I think one of the clues was mentioning the hotel carpeting 🙂
    I don’t blame him for having fun, he’s newly single. Just stay clear of the drugs.
    I was a fan of the show, it’s lost its appeal now.

  48. Incarnadine says

  65. radmom says

    Obviously Tarek el Moussa, “Flip or Flop ” . They’re both a train wreck now. If they weren’t broke, they wouldn’t have to do the show together.

    Never watched the show. With those types of antics of over spending, $ on drugs, etc. no wonder they are broke!

  74. High Steppa says

    The Flip or Flop guy. Tarek or whatever his name is. Plenty of clue, from testing out the carpeting to overnight nanny (wasn’t he rumored to have slept with the nanny?) Plus “Don’t Flip Out.”
    Ace, you are too clever!

    • spaceship says

      I see one place says he is 33 and another place 35…..the blind says 18 year olds , and the guy twice their age, so it fits [retty close if he is 35
