Christina and Ant, who started dating in October 2017, tied the knot in a surprise wedding in December 2018. In September 2019, the couple welcomed their son, Hudson London.

Their two-year-old son is now following in his father's footsteps. Hudson spent Memorial Day weekend with Ant and became his father's "little apprentice."

In September 2020, Christina and Ant filed for divorce, citing "irreconcilable differences." It was unclear what led to their split. However, a source told People that they struggled with their relationship after welcoming their son.
