I'm sorry. This made me laugh.

I was mortified for them when they named their son Brayden. I guess she doesn't read DCUM.

He had thyroid cancer too.

Why do you guys think he's battling depression?

Are they the ones being accused of swindling people out of money with bogus seminars?

They both are, as reported in People by a "source."

My guess is she is dating Pete De Best--their investor. I have seen him recently on the show and their is something sleezy about him and she seems too giddy around him. The article says her affair is with someone in the industry.I bet Tarek figured this out and freaked. I feel bad for Tarek, he seems like a nice guy.

Agree. I thought they were pretend married. I can't stand watching them

I was talking to someone about this too - the show and relationship definitely has a different dynamic than the "family-centric" Gaines' show. However, I also was just told that the evangelical church the Gaines' attends has some anti-LGBTQ views that some (including me) would find objectionable, so that has colored my view a bit on the Gaines.

Oh, you mean a Christian church? Do you distance yourself from all Catholics, and almost all Christians, too, due to the views their pastor or their church?

My Christian church is accepting of gays. I'm an episcopalian. And also a Christian Minister. I would love to see Jesus quoted on homosexuality. He never said one word about it. He talked a lot about hypocrisy, pride, indifference, intolerance, lying, stealing, gluttony, etc. We know homosexual behavior was rampant at the time and in the places Jesus ministered. Yet he didn't think homosexuality was important enough to mention. Hmmmmmmmm.

I distance myself from any church that is intolerant. Period. That is not Christ-like behavior by any definition.

Bingo. You choose your affiliations, and hate is hate.

Apparently, all her designs and her push for high end appliances, tiles, countertops, etc. are scripted because she doesn't have any design or interior decorating background. Maybe that's changed now though.

It's such a dumb show. The camera films 10 seconds of Tarek grouting the shower and acts like he did a lot of work when in reality he did it only for show and the camera and Izzy and his crew doing it all. He always acts surprised to find water damage or wood rot or need new subflooring or new plumbing on foreclosed/abandoned houses. Um, really dude?

I wonder if there was financial problems. The one episode I saw showed them buying a house partnered with an investor. I guess they don't have enough cash or credit to buy and flip themselves? Now they have to split any profits with the investor?

I know. Did they not have an inspection? Ugh

Nobody is asking you to attend that church. My question was do you decide you can't like or accept a person based on their religion? You don't know what the Gaines family believes, yet your view of them is now colored. You just know what their church or, in this specific instance, their pastor, is anti-homosexuality. I'm Catholic. My church doesn't condone homosexuality, but I and many other Catholics are fine with it. Religious intolerance, in the name of tolerance, is hypocritical.

Perhaps the religion forum is more your speed PPs? I think you mistook a discussion about a bunch of vapid real estate flippers with a reality tv show for a discussion on religion. I can see how you would make that mistake.

Well, apparently, this chip and Joanna stuff has turned into a cult. Not liking them is reason for people to accuse you of being anti-Christian or something?

There is a difference between the church stance as a whole and the pastor of YOUR church home. They may or may not subscribe to those views, but chances are higher if it is the pastor of the church you attend on a regular basis.

That would be totally crazy. I hope it's not true, but I could see it. He seems to like pushing Tarek around in an alpha male way.

Totally. Before this came out I was wondering about him. Something seemed off. I was also wondering why she was off but came in at the end of the shows with De Best. It struck me that they didn't want to be around each other yet she seemed flirty with Pete. This whole drama is really going to tank their business. The show was a cute show and not sleezy with firearms in the background. I predict hearing a rehab story
