It’s been a wild ride for that Chip And Joanna Gaines after meeting in 2001 in Waco, Texas, and on their way to building a life together.
The couple tied the knot in 2003 and share five children: Drake, Ella, Duke, Emmie Kay and Crew.
Shortly after their marriage, the couple began building a home in Texas, which included their first business ventures. Magnolia Market and Magnolia Houses. They rose to fame almost a decade later when they launched their own TV show, Fixer upperin 2012. However, their family always comes first.
“At the end of the day, I love Jo more than anything in the world,” Chip said E! News in March 2020.
When the series debuted on HGTV in 2013, the duo’s empire began to take off. They relaunched the market next to a bakery in a 20,000-square-foot granary in 2015 – with food trucks and a nursery on site – called the Silos, before announcing in 2017 that the show that started it all would end with its fifth season . The duo left the cameras later that year when the final episode aired in 2018, but Chip and Joanna didn’t give up when it came to their Magnolia brand. In July 2021, they launched their own streaming channel called Magnolia Network, available through Max, where they have spin-offs such as Fixer Upper: The Lakehouse And Fixer upper: the hotel.
