Tarek El Moussa<\/a><\/strong>could not be more excited for the new decade.<\/p>\n

That is because for the first time in a long time, the 38-year-old star of HGTV’s Flip or Flop<\/em> is starting it with a special person: His girlfriend, Heather Rae Young<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

“I am so ready to start the most defining decade of my life with @heatherraeyoung by my side!!” Tarek wrote on Instagram<\/a> on Wednesday, New Year’s Day 2020, alongside a pic of him and Heather kissing at midnight. “I just love New Years but I love new decades even more! It gives us an opportunity to set a solid 10 year plan!! I’ll be sharing my 2020 goals with you very soon! I’ll be sharing my entire life with you as long as you let me:)”<\/p>\n

“We ended up in Las Vegas last night with a great group of friends and here is our Midnight pics!!\u2764\ufe0f\u2764\ufe0f” he continued. “Is anyone else as excited as I am for the new decade!?”<\/p>\n

“1-1-2020,” Heather wrote<\/a>, alongside the same pics. “Me + You. Love of my life \u2764\ufe0f Best Friend @therealtarekelmoussa.”<\/p>\n

Tarek and Heather went public with their relationship this past summer, several months after he and his Flip or Flop<\/em> co-star Christina Anstead<\/strong> finalized a divorce<\/a> after seven years of marriage. The two, who share daughter Taylor<\/strong>, 9, and Brayden<\/strong>, 4, split in 2016. The kids met Heather at a family gathering<\/a> in August.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

I never thought I’d say this word again, but this beautiful young lady, Heather Rae, is my girlfriend, officially, yeah,” Tarek says on E!’s Daily Pop<\/em><\/a>.  “She’s awesome. She’s just, I feel really, really lucky to have met her. We have so many things in common. She’s amazing. She does such a great job, she did Selling Sunset<\/em>, and that show was incredible. So, I really admire her work ethic and her heart. It’s been a long time since I’ve started falling in love.”<\/p>\n

“I’ve been on my own for close to three and a half years now and to finally find someone again, it’s a really big deal for me, because a few months ago if you would have asked me, I would say ‘I’m gonna be on my own forever and I’m happy being alone,’ and you know what, I realize what I was missing now,” he adds.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
