The world peeked at the day Hudson London Anstead was born after his famous parents turned to social media to celebrate the special occasion, the calm before the storm of their separation and legal battle.

However, Ant Anstead and his former partner have since navigated co-parenting, and the "Radford Reborn" star said he has the "best of both worlds" when spending time with his three children.

Hudson London Anstead's Parents Separated Shortly after He Was Born

Ant — a car builder, designer, and artist — and Christina's relationship began after a mutual friend set them up on a blind date. And in December 2018, his two children and Christina's daughter and son joined the couple for their surprise winter wonderland-themed wedding.

After announcing that they were expecting, Christina's ex-husband and the father of her two older kids, Tarek El Moussa, accidentally spilled the bean that she and Ant were expecting a boy during an interview before the couple broke the news.

Nonetheless, the former couple shared that they were excited to meet their son, born on September 6, 2019. Ant and Christina took to Instagram to announce their son's arrival the same day of his birth, and Ant revealed that he was in "awe" in an adorable post.

However, less than two years after tying the knot and a year after Hudson was born, Christina released a statement on Instagram confirming that she and Ant were separating.

But shortly after, Ant alluded to the fact that their break up was Christina's idea as he shared a black and white selfie of the couple and captioned the post:

"Anyone who really knows me knows that I don't like to share private matters publicly. I have remained silent while holding on to hope. I never gave up on us. I pray Christina's decision brings her happiness."

In June 2021, Ant opened up about his and Christina's split and revealed that he "walked away completely" after their divorce was finalized. "I packed my clothes, and I left [...]. I don't need anything but Hudson and my health," Ant said.

Ant Anstead Filed for Full Custody of His Son

Things took a messy turn for Hudson's parents in 2022 after his father filed for full custody, claiming Christina put their son at medical risk and used Hudson on social media, including in paid posts.

He further alleged that the "Flip or Flop" star was barely in Hudson's life and wanted a judge to grant him full custody. Christina later responded to her ex-husband's allegations and denied ever taking advantage of Husdon in her Instagram posts. She added:

"The allegation that I am 'exploiting' our son is truly offensive and simply untrue. After seeing what Ant has written in his Supplemental Declaration, it is clear that his motivation is not Hudson's best interest."

Ant Anstead and Christina Hall eventually settled their custody battle in December 2022, and the former couple kept joint legal and physical custody of little Hudson, including alternating turns on holidays.

Over the years, Hudson has become a regular on his famous father's Instagram account. On January 3, Ant documented Hudson's first trip abroad as the toddler rang in the new year with his older sister, Amelie Anstead, and brother in their father's home country of England.

During an interview, Ant revealed that he and his exes could put their differences aside, at least when raising their children and co-parenting them.

On July 6, Ant documented him and Hudson "having the best day" as they celebrated July 4 at a soccer game, and on June 17, he shared a clip of his son enjoying a meal. "I love how much of a foodie Hudzo is!" Ant captioned the post in part.

On June 22, Hudson wore a sleepy smile as Ant posted a photo of them having a morning lay-in, and on June 29, Ant commemorated his son completing his first year of school with a photo dump.

Ant Anstead on Co-parenting His Children

During an interview, Ant revealed that he and his exes could put their differences aside, at least when raising their children and co-parenting them. He said:

"All my co-parenting friends covet my relationship because I almost have the best of both worlds."

Since separating from Christina Hall née Haack, he has moved on with actress Renée Zellweger.
