The sighting of Christina and Gary follows reports of distressing incidents between the TV star and ex Tarek, 35, on the set of their HGTV show.
An insider claimed to Life & Style magazine that things became so tense between the pair, that in spring of 2016 'crew was asked to be efficient with takes so that there was no downtime for Tarek and Christina on set'.
'When there's downtime bad things happen' a source said.
Christina would reportedly sit in her car during breaks to avoid her husband.
'One time he went up and started pounding on the window, Christina locked the doors,' the source told Life & Style.

An HGTV insider said: 'Christina feels like she has been put through hell with Tarek. After trying to keep their marriage together for years, she couldn't put up with it anymore.'
Despite news of difficulties on set, the duo plan on continuing co-starring on Flip or Flop.
Police had been called to their home in May after Tarek armed himself with a gun following an argument which they have since branded an 'unfortunate misunderstanding'.

The couple entered counselling in a bid to save their seven year union but decided later to separate. Filming on their show continued, however, and it was not until late last year that they announced they were ending their marriage.
Tarek filed for divorce this month and is requesting spousal support and joint custody of their kids.
The former couple share two children, six-year-old daughter Taylor and 15-month-old son Brayden.
