Christina Haack shared new photos she took with her boyfriend, Joshua Hall, on social media.

The "Flip or Flop" star took to Instagram Sunday and uploaded a series of photos from her "whimsical" vacation with Hall when she celebrated her birthday. The reality star thanked her beau for making her natal day extra special.

"Thank you to my man for kicking off my 38th with a whimsical dream vacation," she wrote in the caption with a red heart, lock and key emoji.

The photos showed the lovers enjoying their trip to Tulum, Mexico. In one photo, Hall could be seen hugging Haack from behind while they’re in an underground river. In another shot, they could be seen enjoying drinks and a romantic dinner. Some snaps also featured them cuddling by the beach. In the last photo, Haack was seen sitting on a swing while facing the beach with her back on the camera.

Haack shared the post on Instagram just days after she made a lengthy post about Hall on the same platform where she detailed how their romance blossomed. Haack, whose divorce from her second ex-husband Ant Anstead was finalized in June, shared that she met her boyfriend when she "wasn’t in a state of fear or fight-or-flight."

"When we met this past spring, the synchronicities hit us so hard and fast they were impossible to ignore," she wrote. "I felt immediately crazy protective over him and wanted to keep him for myself and get to know each other before the tornado (media attention) hit."

"We’ve had a few solid months of just us getting to know each other and I’ve loved every second of it. So called 'fame' provides so many things but it comes with a cost. They build you up then tear you down," she added.

Haack and Hall's relationship was publicized when they were spotted at the airport together. Haack detailed the encounter in her post.

"When I saw a camera behind us at the airport my heart started beating out of my chest and my hands shaking And not for me but for him," she continued. "I know they dig and dig and I didn’t ever want to see him stress over the media stalking him and his family. Which obviously has already begun to a uncomfortable degree. False narratives being thrown around left and right."

Haack mentioned how the media tend to look for dirt and drama and explained why they are partly to blame for "failed celeb relationships." She also alleged that they "turn new relationships into a circus." She ended her post by confirming their relationship.

"So yes 'another relationship' and guess what. I’m 38 -I’ll do what I want," she concluded.
