Ant Anstead Shares First Selfie With Girlfriend Renée Zellweger, Hours After Ex-Wife Christina Haack Reignited Engagement Rumors
Sept. 16 2021, Published 1:12 p.m. ET
While he does look genuinely happy in his new relationship, the timing of Ant Anstead's first selfie with Renée Zellwegger is certainly suspicious!
Mere hours after his ex-wife, Christina Haack, reignited engagement rumors by once again sporting a giant diamond on her left ring finger, the British television presenter took to Instagram in what could be seen as an attempt to prove to his almost 400,000 followers that he's too busy being in love with the Oscar-winning actress to care.
The adorable black-and-white photo showed a giddy Renée with her arms wrapped around Ant's neck, as the two were seen smiling while sporting casual clothing and messy hair. Red heart emojis flooded the comments section of the sweet snap.
Though Zellweger was first featured on Anstead's Instagram Story in August after attending their first public event together, Wednesday marked her first time on his actual grid. Exciting stuff!
Interestingly, though, Haack had just been photographed on a balcony in San Diego, California, with her rumored fiancé, Joshua Hall.
The two seemed to be enjoying the ocean breeze as they stood next to each other chatting. While Christina moved around, her hands became visible, and her massive sparkler could not be missed.
It seemed to be the same rock she was caught wearing last month, which makes fans think the two are, indeed, engaged.
Anstead and Zellweger were first linked romantically back in June, the same month his divorce from the Flip or Flop star was finalized.
They've been glued at the hip ever since, with Renée even seen carrying Ant and Christina's 2-year-old son, Hudson Anstead, in her arms during a family outing!
From chilling at his home to going for various other PDA-packed bike rides, it would appear Anstead and Zellweger are in it for the long haul...for now...it is Hollywood, after all.
Ant also has two other children from his first wife, Louise Anstead, to whom he was married from 2005 to 2017 —17-year-old daughter Amelie Anstead and 14-year-old son Archie Anstead.
He and Christina were married from 2018 to 2021.
Zellweger was previously married to country star Kenny Chesney, but the two have been divorced since 2005. She has no children of her own.
As for Haack, she sent fans into a frenzy when she posted and deleted a photo showing what appeared to be an engagement ring.
She's been dating Josh – a retired police officer-turned-realtor – since the spring, but it was only after a paparazzo caught their hand-holding incident at Los Angeles International Airport that she decided to come clean about the relationship.
Immediately after fessing up to dating Josh in a lengthy Instagram post – during which she revealed she "reset my brain and kicked out years of anxiety" by smoking a Bufo toad – Christina was photographed loving on her new man in Tulum, Mexico, where the twosome celebrated her 38th birthday with "a romantic tropical vacation [Josh] planned entirely on his own."

During their 10-year marriage, Christina and Tarek had two children – 10-year-old daughter Taylor El Moussa and 5-year-old son, Brayden El Moussa.
