Young shares one son with husband Tarek El Moussa.
"I am so thankful to have you as my husband my best friend and my partner @therealtarekelmoussa," Young gushed. "You are my person, and the best daddy I could’ve ever asked for. I love you very much honey and I love you Tristan and Bray❤️."

"I cannot believe you chose to alienate Taylor on Valentines Day. That is SAD," another person wrote, while a third said, "What a way to make Taylor feel the love on V-Day. 🙄 As if being 13 isn’t hard enough these days without being snubbed by your stepmom."

In fact, in 2022, the ladies were seen arguing in public while at Brayden's soccer game, though soon after, they released a public statement.
"Stressful 24 hours but a good reminder how important team work/co-parenting is. We were all under pressure but when it really matters we were all there for Brayden doing our part," Hall explained, noting Brayden had a medical scare. "Sometimes a scary situation can be a good wakeup call. In the end, all the other stuff is just ‘noise,’ what matters is the kids."
Shortly after the confrontation, the women and their husbands put their differences aside to attend a school function with Taylor.
"Sometimes to shut down the noise we show the truth. Co- parenting and doing what’s right ❤️ it’s been a rough week for all of us," Young captioned a photo from their day. "Tay’s open house tonight, she’s just the cutest 🥰."
