Mar. 15, 2025

After last week’s “flirting” accusations onThe Flip Off,Heather Rae El Moussais trying to set the record straight with a subtle dig aimed atAnt Anstead.

In the process, Ant struck a nerve with Heather in more ways than one. Right before he named Christina the winner, Anstead repeatedlyjoked that Christina and Tarek were flirting with each otherduring the episode.

In Wednesday’s new episode, Heather takes a chance to turn the tables. During a phone call between the trio, Heather says it was actually Christina and Anstead who were the ones flirting with each other last week.

“I’m feeling fabulous today,” Christina says after Heather asks how she’s doing. Tarek then quips, “That’s what happens when you rig games.”

Brushing off her ex’s jab, Christina responds, “I didn’t rig. I can’t control what he does,” referring to Anstead.

Seemingly unbothered, Christina responds, “No, I think he’s just jealous of all of our relationships. That he got taken off the group text.”

With a laugh, Heather agrees, “He got kicked out.”

AsAnstead and Christina only recently reconciledafter years of tension following their September 2020 split, Heather first asks the exes how “this situation” is going for them.

Anstead dodges her question, and instead addresses Christina and Tarek: “Once you guys stop flirting with each other, let’s get into it. Cause we’re here to do a job.”

After joking around some more, he later tells the pair again to “stop flirting,” prompting Heather to give Anstead a warning.

She points a finger directly at theRadford Rebornhost and says, “Ant, now you’re really going to be in trouble if you keep using that word."
