The El Moussas share their parenthood journey

The El Moussa family has been sharing their parenting journey on social media since the birth of their adorable baby boy, Tristan. From his first private jet experience to their first family vacation, the couple has documented every milestone with their fans. Recently, HGTV released a video of the couple opening up about the joys and struggles of parenting three children.

Heather started the conversation by highlighting the incredible parts of being a parent and wrote, "There are so many incredible parts of being a parent. Tristan starting to really focus and notice people, so he'll look at Tarek and Tarek will have like conversations with our 7-week-old." Sharing his excitement for the future, Tarek said, "Oh, we planned camping trips, dirt bike trips, snowboarding... Like we've been planning so many boys' trips."

Heather added that Tristan is fascinated with Tarek and recognizes his voice. "Tristan will just look at him in the fascination of his daddy, and he knows his voice. He talked to me when he was in my belly," she said. The couple acknowledged that before Tristan, they were attached to the hip and did everything together. With the addition of a baby, they have had to make adjustments to their lifestyle.

Heather concluded the conversation with words of encouragement for new parents. "You're going through a lot of hormone changes, you're taking care of a brand new baby trying to figure out your life. Don't be hard on yourself," she said. She also encouraged her followers to "turn to other people for help" and "talk about it."

The couple's candid discussion on parenting is a reminder that even celebrities have their struggles and it's important to lean on loved ones for support during challenging times. The El Moussa family's commitment to sharing their journey with their fans continues to inspire and resonate with many.

'Sick and tired of them'

Not everyone is a fan of the El Moussa family's constant presence on HGTV's social media platforms. Many fans have expressed their frustration with the network's advertising and promotion of the couple. Some have even gone as far as to say that they are tired of seeing them. One fan took to the comment section of the post to express their disinterest, stating, "I'm over him and whichever woman he's with. Does anyone still watch his shows?"

Another fan echoed this sentiment and wrote, "Sick of them and HGTV's incessant advertising of them." It's clear that some fans are becoming increasingly frustrated with the amount of attention the couple is receiving.

Others have taken issue with Tarek's portrayal as a "new dad" given that he has two children from his previous marriage. One commenter stated, "Doesn't he have 2 kids already? Why is he acting like this is all new??" While another added, "A new dad? He was a 'new' dad two kids ago."

It's evident that some fans believe Tarek is milking his experience as a new parent despite already having two children. However, not all fans are as negative toward the El Moussas, with one fan reminding others to be more empathetic. They wrote, "A baby is a reason to rejoice no matter how many you have. Stop being rude!"

Meanwhile, another fan acknowledged that being a parent can be challenging, but questioned the couple's relatability, stating, "I do not care about your being parents. Try being a working-class parent in this economy, and then we'll talk."
