HGTV star Mina Starsiak Hawk has opened up about the end of Good Bones and the backlash she received from fans for stopping the hit renovation series. On the most recent episode of her podcast, Mina Af, Hawk spoke to sociologist Danielle Lindemann about Good Bones, which ended after its eighth season last October. She also hit back at “nasty” comments she says she got from “HGTV women.” “I think for us, it really was because we had so many characters. You could relate to at least one of us,” Hawk said (per People) when explaining why the show lasted as long as it did. Good Bones premiered on March 22, 2016, and followed Hawk as she ran her Indianapolis-based home renovation business, Two Chicks and a Hammer, with her mom, Karen E. Laine. Other members of Hawk’s family, including her husband, Steve Hawk, and her brother, Tad Starsiak, also appeared on the show.

Fans of HGTV‘s Good Bones are hoping that brother and sister Tad Starsiak and Mina Starsiak Hawk can patch up their differences amid their ongoing family rift. In an Instagram Reel shared on January 11, Tad posted his thoughts on dealing with someone who has made you “mad” or “upset,” writing in the caption, “Ask yourself these questions whenever you’re angry or upset with someone and they could elevate your awareness and help save and restore relationships.” His questions included, “Are my expectations reasonable?” “Am I angry at the right person?” and “Can I really change this situation?” Given Tad’s public falling out with his sister, many fans were quick to ask if he would be applying these approaches to help fix his relationship with Mina.

Good Bones star Mina Starsiak Hawk has revealed that she had a reunion with her family over Christmas after months of feuding. The HGTV personality updated fans on how she spent the holidays during an episode of her “Mina Af” podcast on Monday, January 8. According to Hawk, she was torn about what to do amid her ongoing drama with her mom, Karen E. Laine, brother Tad Starsiak, and former costar Cory Miller. Back in November, Mina and her husband, Steve Hawk, decided not to spend Thanksgiving with the whole family. “I wasn’t in a place where I felt like the fallout from not being there was going to be more manageable than the bad feelings I would have from being there and sitting at a table and pretending everything was Ok,” she explained.

In the latest episode of Alice Fraser’s Tea With Alice podcast, Mina revealed that she is trying to figure out her holiday plans after her father approached her about her falling out with her brother, Tad Starsiak. “I have given him so many opportunities in life because of the hard work I’ve done,” Mina said (per Closer) of her brother, who appeared with her and her mom, Karen E. Laine, on the home renovation series Good Bones. “I’ve shared those opportunities, and they were never owed to him. But he very much acted that way and treats me that way and then said some s****y things that ended with ‘sucks to suck,’” she continued. She explained that her family usually “sucks it up...

HGTV star Tad Starsiak shared a call for mental health awareness on Instagram, nearly a month after Good Bones ended amid tension with his family members. “Men may struggle in silence with different issues, but we have to break the silence and go talk to someone,” Tad wrote on Instagram on Tuesday. “We are men, but we are just human.” He added: “Things men may struggle with in silence: not feeling like a good provider, imposter syndrome, not knowing how to communicate their feelings and emotions. Break the stigma. It’s Ok to ask for help.” View this post on Instagram A post shared by Thadeus Starsiak (@the_demogod) Good Bones fans have heard about the show’s behind-the-scenes drama for months now.

The series finale saw Mina Starsiak Hawk helping her brother Tad renovate a property where he planned to live with his girlfriend, Anna Spiars.

After showing Anna their brand-new kitchen, Tad got down on one knee and proposed. “I love you with all my heart,” Tad said, fighting back tears. “And I don’t know what I did to deserve you, but I thank God for you every single day.
