In late September 2017, Chip and Joanna Gaines made the decision to stop their enormously

popular home remodeling TV series Fixer Upper, which debuted in 2013.

The duo announced that season 5 of Fixer Upper would be their final one in a post. “It is with both sadness and expectation that we share the news that season 5 will be our last,” they wrote.

“Although we are certain that this is the best option for us, it hasn’t always been simple to accept. Your family and ours have grown up side by side, and we have felt your support on the other side of the television. What a painful goodbye to the same thing that first brought us all together.”
