Co-Parenting Philosophy

> “It really takes everyone in a co-parenting situation wanting to make it work,” she said, noting messages she receives from fans struggling with ex-spouses.
> “It takes all of us, and right now there’s four people in this situation – myself, my boyfriend Chris, Tarek and Heather – and all of us want to get along.”
Haack and Larocca went public with their relationship in January 2025 and have been together more than a year. The couple frequently documents double dates with Tarek and Heather on social media.
