Christina Haack and Ant Anstead marked their son Hudson’s 7th birthday with separate but equally heartfelt tributes on Instagram, continuing their pattern of amicable co-parenting years after their 2021 divorce.
Haack, 43, shared a seven-photo carousel that included several snaps of Hudson affectionately embracing animals, captioning the post: “Happy 7th Birthday Hudson!! My sweet boy I adore you and your kind soul!! Smart, adventurous, helpful, silly and a full on Virgo when it comes to organization. I am so lucky to be your mama!!”
Anstead, 47, shared his own tribute in the form of a video featuring photos and clips of Hudson through the years, writing: “Hudzo you were born with a light! An unmistakably GLOW around you! You shine with a beautiful blend of fun, cheekiness, love and so much kindness! You are an utterly brilliant boy and it is a privilege to watch you grow and thrive.”
He closed with, “I love being your father! Happy 7th birthday Hudzo. Keep on GLOWING! X”
The birthday tributes continue a now-familiar tradition for the former couple, who have consistently come together for Hudson’s milestones despite a rocky custody battle that followed their 2021 split, including an attempt by Anstead to seek full custody in 2022, a request a judge ultimately denied.
Last September, the two similarly celebrated Hudson’s “golden birthday,” turning 6 on the 6th, with a joint Instagram post and a chaotic, candy-filled party.
Both Haack and Anstead have children from earlier relationships as well, Haack shares daughter Taylor, 15, and son Brayden, 11, with ex-husband Tarek El Moussa, while Anstead shares daughter Amelie, 21, and son Archie, 20, with ex-wife Louise Anstead.
