Though she didn’t explain where Brayden was, since she and ex Tarek El Moussa finalized their divorce in 2018, they have split custody of their two children. According to court documents, Brayden and his older sister Taylor, 9, spend 4 days of the week with Christina and 3 days with their dad.

Last month, the Christina on the Coast star explained that she was going to slow down and be more diligent about self care after she injured herself while throwing a huge birthday bash for Taylor. “I felt totally fine since one week postpartum — like zero pain but I was resting and taking it easy and then I threw Tay a bday party and was lifting and running around all weekend... and yesterday I woke up like oh crap ... and today oh crap turned into oh s**t,” she wrote under a picture of her cuddling with Hudson.
