Tarek El Moussa is really close with his family. “I’m half Middle-Eastern, so [my last name] comes from Middle-Eastern descent,” El Moussa proudly told Country Living of his lineage. “My mom’s from Belgium and my dad moved to Europe when he was in his late teens.” El Moussa explained that he sees his parents several times a week and that he makes it a priority to spend time with them.
El Moussa isn’t kidding when he says that family is everything. On Instagram for Mother’s Day, he posted a tribute to his mother: “At the end of the day the only thing that matters is family,” he wrote. “Life goes by so fast and we are all so busy sometimes we forget to stop, look around, and be in the exact moment. I hope all of you incredible mommies had an amazing day.”

His ex-wife, Christina Hall, feels the same about El Moussa’s mom. In February 2021, Hall posted pics on Instagram of herself with their children, Brayden and Taylor, and El Moussa’s mother at Utah’s Deer Valley Resort (via People). “Modern Family,” Hall wrote in a since-deleted post. “Thank you Tarek for letting me borrow your mama!” Hall also tagged El Moussa’s wife, Heather Rae Young, in the post. Meanwhile, El Moussa’s mom, Dominique, also posted videos and pics of the cute snow day with Hall and wrote, “Enjoying time with the grandkids in Deer Valley.” Clearly, there’s a lot of family love there.
