Who stars in 'Fixer to Fabulous: Italiano'? Meet the hosts of HGTV renovation spinoff show
GREVE IN CHIANTI, ITALY: Catch a glimpse of ‘Fixer to Fabulous: Italiano’ stars, Dave and Jenny Marrs as they take on the enchanting challenge of renovating a century-old villa in Italy.
In 2019 HGTV approached them with the idea for a show after catching wind of their business and their dedication to restoring homes in their small-town community.
Jenny even confessed that she thought it was a joke when HGTV initially approached them during Season 1 of ‘Fixer to Fabulous’.
Since then, the Marrs Family has won over viewers with their impressive renovation talents and heartwarming family vibe.
In the premiere episode of ‘Fixer to Fabulous: Italiano, Dave, and Jenny join forces with longtime friends Pierre and Rebecca in Italy.
The couple is investing their life savings to transform the aged villa into a delightful vacation rental. Demolition kicks off, but the Marrs face challenges like a surprise snowstorm, permit delays, and building restrictions.
Apart from their successful TV careers, Dave and Jenny Marrs also have a booming renovation business, Marrs Developing which is located in Bentonville, Arkansas.
