Chip and Joanna Gaines are making an epic return back to television!
The former “Fixer Upper” stars shocked fans during an appearance on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” on Friday. The couple revealed that they’re not only making a comeback to TV, but they’re also getting their own network.
“We signed a non-disclosure and it said quote unquote you can tell your mother but that’s it,” Chip replied after Jimmy asked if the duo would return to TV in the future. “So mom, I just wanted to make a quick announcement, we are coming back to television. You are going to get to see the kids grow up, you are going to see us, well maybe a six-month delay like the rest of the world, but we are excited to be back.”
HGTV’s parent company, Discovery Inc., also confirmed the news in a statement to Access:
“Discovery is thrilled to confirm that we are in exclusive talks with Chip and Joanna Gaines. The Gaines’ are exceptional people, true authentic storytellers and creative visionaries who will nourish millions of people with quality, family-friendly programming accessible on a 24/7 network and across all screens. Stay tuned…working out the final details…more to come soon!”
The happy news comes after the couple announced they were calling it quits with their HGTV series back in 2017. The hit reality TV show aired its final episode in April 2018.
The network will be the latest addition to the Gaines’ expanding Magnolia empire. The couple already has a restaurant, a Target home design line, a lifestyle magazine, and their famous Magnolia Market.
The busy couple also balances their list of successful projects with parenthood! The Gaines’ welcomed their fifth kiddo back in June.
We can’t wait to have Chip and Joanna back on our TVs!
