Christina Haack’s new boyfriend, Christopher Larocca, is facing fresh scrutiny after his former partner shared details about their relationship, which she says ended approximately three months ago.
In an exclusive interview with DailyMail.com, Florida-based influencer Andrea Deanna, 29, described dating the 52-year-old businessman for “a little over two years.”
DailyMail.com reported Friday that Haack, 41, had been seeing Larocca, the president and CEO of telecommunications provider Network Connex, for several months.
A source said the pair traveled to Europe in late October to attend an immersive Ferrari experience hosted by the luxury sports-car company.
They were photographed from behind while holding hands, with the image later shared on Ferrari of Newport Beach’s Instagram account.
Deanna said she last saw Larocca on October 7 in Chicago, where he had flown her to join him during a business trip.

Larocca’s attorney told DailyMail.com: “Mr. Larocca ended his relationship with [Andrea] prior to his relationship with Ms. Haack.”
Deanna, a medical esthetician, said she saw Larocca nearly every week, either at her home in Tampa or Orlando or while accompanying him on various work trips.
She said their romance began after she hired a matchmaker and claimed Larocca paid her bills, arranged lavish vacations, bought designer handbags and provided her with a monthly allowance.
“There were times he would give me $20,000 a month,” she alleged.
“He was paying for my flights and vacations. We went to The Bahamas and to Mexico for Valentine’s Day.
“He bought me a car, Rolex watches, Cartier and other jewelry, as well as Chanel, Louis Vuitton and YSL bags.”
She also claimed she had access to “an unlimited credit card.”
Deanna said she believes Haack is unaware of the extent of her past relationship with Larocca and the financial arrangements they shared.

“I don’t think she knows. I don’t think she has any idea that we have a business together.
“We have vehicles in each other’s names, and she doesn’t know how much he helped me financially.”
Deanna also alleged that Larocca contributed $50,000 toward her bikini business, Beach Candy, a swimsuit boutique she owns.

She described the end of their relationship as a deeply upsetting experience.
“That day was honestly very traumatic because he got really upset. He was in Chicago on a work trip on October 7, and he flew me there.
“He asked me not to post anything, so I didn’t. But then I shared a photo of the street. I didn’t tag Chicago, tag anyone or even write anything,” she said, explaining that they had kept their relationship private.
“As soon as I posted the photo, we returned to the room. He looked at his phone and completely flipped out. He said his daughter had become very upset.”
Larocca has a 17-year-old daughter from a previous marriage. He divorced his former wife in January 2015 after the couple had been married for eight years.
Andrea said Chris financed vacations, including this trip to Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, where they spent Valentine’s Day last year

The influencer said she left Chicago the following morning, marking the last time she saw Larocca in person.
Despite their separation, Deanna said the two continue to communicate by email.
After Haack’s relationship with her former partner became public, Deanna claimed that some photographs shared on the Flip Off star’s social media had been taken at Larocca’s home. She also alleged that the Ferrari Haack has been seen driving belongs to him and is estimated to be worth $768,000.
Deanna said she has not contacted Haack directly but would caution her against pursuing a serious relationship with Larocca, pointing to his previous engagement before their relationship.
“He tries to make relationships serious, and then they don’t end up being serious,” she said.
Deanna said she had heard that Larocca and Haack met in July at Pelican Hill Golf Club, where he had maintained a membership for years. However, she said she did not know he was dating Haack until the news became public.
On Tuesday, Haack and Larocca were photographed together at Los Angeles International Airport in their first public appearance as a couple.
In images obtained exclusively by DailyMail.com, Larocca could be seen resting an arm on Haack’s back as they walked into the airport.
Josh Hall and Christina Haack remain involved in a contentious divorce after the real estate agent filed in July 2024
Like Christina, Josh has also moved on with a new girlfriend, Nashville-based bikini model Stephanie Gabrys
Josh went public with Stephanie on Monday, captioning a photograph of them: “Happy 35th to this real life”
On Monday, Haack’s former husband Josh Hall made his relationship with Stephanie Gabrys public. Gabrys is a Nashville-based bikini model.
In the photograph, Hall, 44, and Gabrys, 35, smiled beside an outdoor fireplace while she sat on his lap.
“Happy 35th to this real life [angel emoji],” Hall wrote in the caption.
Hall filed for divorce from Haack in July 2024, after almost three years of marriage. Their split has since developed into a highly public dispute.
During a recent appearance on Jeff Lewis Live, the real estate personality said she and Hall were “not even close” to reaching a resolution and confirmed that the case would proceed to trial.
