'Christina went to put an alarm on Doug’s cellphone to wake him up and she saw text messages [between Doug and Tracy],' said the source.

In 2011, Doug - a wealthy retired car dealership owner - was arrested for possession of a controlled substance after being caught with methamphetamine.

'Christina encouraged him to go back to rehab. Christina is the type of person who sees the best side of others, and that’s how she was with Doug,' the source offered.

'Caring about someone does not save someone and Christina knows that. She just wanted to help him.

'Christina didn’t just turn her back on him. She respects and supports Doug’s decision to take the steps to make changes in his life,' said the insider. 

'Ultimately she cares about him and his daughters and has no doubt this is what is best for them.'

They had dated briefly before she married Tarek.

In June they were spotted arm in arm while drinking cocktails on a yacht in Newport, California.

The following month he took her to a romantic dinner in Beverly Hills for her 34th birthday and they were seen kissing at the Montage hotel.

In August she told Today: 'I'm very spiritual, and I believe in things happening for a reason. I had it in my head, and it'd never been in my head before, that I was going to run into him that night. We crossed paths as we were walking down the hallway, and I was just like, I knew it.'

In 2016 she split from Tarek, with whom she has two children: Brayden, aged two, and Taylor, aged six.
