Christina and Tarek el Moussa [2] are about to have some serious house flipping competition on HGTV! The channel just announced its upcoming lineup [3], including a new series with actress Gabrielle Union and her husband Dwyane Wade, a Miami Heat basketball player. The A-list couple will reportedly be pursuing their "passion project" of flipping homes. "Follow along as they renovate, revitalize, and resell a home in a suburban Florida neighborhood," says the show's summary.
The HGTV-loving couple seems eager to enter the real estate world. Gabrielle Tweeted, "So excited about this!!!" and in an interview with the Sun Sentinel [4], Dwyane said, "I know it's not easy, but it's a good challenge to do it, and I want to see how it ends." When the reporter, Ira Winderman, asked Dwyane the all-important question of granite or marble countertops, the basketball player had the perfect answer: "That's for my wife to decide."
The show doesn't have a premiere date yet, but Dwyane told the Sun Sentinel they won't get started on shooting until after the basketball season ends. We can't wait!
So excited about this!!! #HGTV [5] https://t.co/iXifJ3Z8KL [6]
