Let me tell you about a couple who’s making waves in the world of home design. HGTV’s Fixer to Fabulous introduced us to Dave and Jenny Marrs, a dynamic duo who’ve been married since 2005. These two aren’t just flipping homes; they’re flipping the script on what it means to work together as a team. With their incredible design skills and a knack for turning old houses into dream homes, they’ve become a sensation in Bentonville, Arkansas. But here’s the big question on everyone’s mind: are Dave and Jenny still together? Keep reading because we’re about to spill the tea.
How Did This Dream Team Meet?
Here’s the backstory you need to know. Dave and Jenny first crossed paths back in 2002 while working for Newell Rubbermaid. Now, picture this: Dave’s traveling all over for work, but deep down, he knows something’s missing. He decides to pivot and chase his passion for building instead of staying in the corporate grind. In 2004, he moves to Arkansas, and guess what? Jenny tags along. At first, they thought it’d be a short-term move, just a couple of years before heading back to Florida. But as Jenny told About You in October 2018, “We came for a stint and realized how great a place it is. This is home.” It’s clear that Arkansas wasn’t just a stop for them—it became the foundation for their future.
Fast forward a few years, and this power couple decided to tie the knot in 2005. Together, they started Marrs Developing, a contracting company that would become the backbone of their home renovation journey. Their big break came in 2016 when HGTV producers were scouting for a series in Arkansas. A friend recommended Dave and Jenny, and the rest, as they say, is history. They filmed a sizzle reel, and HGTV loved it so much that the first season of Fixer to Fabulous premiered in October 2019. Talk about a dream come true!

Still Together After All These Years?
Here’s the scoop you’ve been waiting for: yes, Dave and Jenny Marrs are still very much together! These two aren’t just business partners; they’re soulmates. In a March 2022 interview with Closer, Dave couldn’t stop gushing about his wife. He said, “When we first got married, I knew I was winning big time … now she works with me all the time. So, I get to be with and spend all of my time with Jenny. … She’s become like, just from an amazing wife, to an amazing mother, to an amazing business partner, to everything I could ask for.” Can we get a round of applause for this love story?
And if that’s not enough proof, they celebrated their 17th wedding anniversary in April 2022. Jenny shared a heartfelt throwback photo from their wedding on Instagram, captioning it, “If I could rewind to this very day 17 years ago, I would whisper in that young bride’s ear: ‘This is the first day of the most incredible adventure you could ever imagine.’ Thanks for being my main squeeze forever and ever, Dave Marrs. I’m sure glad I snagged you.” Now, that’s what I call relationship goals.
Meet the Marrs Family
But wait, there’s more! Dave and Jenny aren’t just renovating homes; they’re building a beautiful family. They’re parents to five incredible kids: Nathan, Ben, Sylvie, Charlotte, and Luke. Sylvie holds a special place in their hearts as she was adopted from the Democratic Republic of Congo in August 2013. After a delay due to a government shutdown, they were finally able to bring her home in July 2014. This adoption journey was so meaningful that it inspired them to take on Fixer to Fabulous. As Jenny said at the CCAI virtual gala in October 2021 after receiving the National Angels in Adoption award, “The main reason that we said ‘yes’ to this HGTV journey of ours is for us to have a platform to share about adoption and orphan care, family preservation, the things that we’re really passionate about.”
