Fans of “The Flipping El Moussas” have been waiting two months for Tarek El Moussa and wife Heather’s season finale.
And now we finally know when it will air and why it was delayed.
Tarek shared the news via his Instagram Story, writing, “You guys have been patient with us…But it’s finally Finale week for The Flipping El Moussas.” The episode will air Thursday, May 8 at 9:00p.m. ET.
In another post, Tarek gave some insight into why the last show was so delayed. The caption reads, “Two months later… and the wait is OVER!🛠️🏡
We saved the worst for last😉—Season 2 finale of The Flipping El Moussas is HERE! You won’t believe how far this flip comes…

But it’s the video that speaks a thousand words, showing a house full of problems.
Heather Rae El Moussa Teased One More Episode in March
Originally, fans thought the March 13 episode was the season finale.
But then Heather Rae El Moussa announced an unexpected bonus episode of the show. In her Instagram stories on March 19, Heather told fans the couple had returned to filming, saying, “I’m in glam. The team is back together. We’re filming for ‘The Flipping El Moussas’ today. It’s been a while. We have one more episode that’s going to be coming out, you guys. I don’t know when. I’ll announce it soon, as soon as I hear.”
It seems that one of the pair’s homes was still a work in progress, so the show circled back to do an update.
In another post, Heather took fans behind-the-scenes of the flip. In the clip, she said, “We’re back filming The Flipping El Moussas to finish off the season for you guys,” confirming that the new episode will still be part of Season 2 when it airs. Heather admitted the flip was “taking longer than expected.”
Heather Addressed Last Episode Delay Again in April With Funny Post
In another post in April, Heather Rae El Moussa showed that she was keeping her sense of humor about all the delays.
Heather lets the video speak for itself as Tarek goofs off, mugs for the camera, says, “I have no idea what’s going on right now” and talks about his body-building routine. Heather’s only caption for the video is, “This is why the last episode of Flipping El Moussas is taking so long…😅😂”
In another video, Tarek gave the real reason for the delays saying, “It’s one of the very last shoot days for Season 2 of The Flipping El Moussas. This house is a little bit behind because of permit delays, but in about two weeks, this sucker will be done, it will be listed. It is the final house of the season. We’re going to sell it over asking and we’re going to Disneyland.”
Two Weeks Was Too Optimistic, But Disneyland Still Happened
Tarek’s two-weeks to done estimate may’ve been a little too optimistic, but his Disneyland prediction was spot on.
Both Tarek and Heather’s Instagram accounts are full of posts of their trip over spring break. In one, Heather writes, “If you can’t tell… we love Disney! It was an easy answer when deciding what to do for Bray’s spring break! @visitanaheim is always the way to go.”
Future Remains Uncertain for Another Season of “The Flipping El Moussas”
While we don’t know yet if “The Flipping El Moussas” will return for another season, we do know you can catch a brand new episode Thursday, May 8 at 9:00p.m.
The El Moussas are lobbying to bring back another season of “The Flip Off” competition show they had with Tarek’s ex-wife Christina Haack.
