Hey there! Let’s talk about everyone's favorite renovating couple, Erin and Ben Napier from HGTV's Home Town. These two have been working tirelessly to restore Laurel, Mississippi, into the charming town it deserves to be. Recently, they decided to take a well-deserved break, and boy, did they make it count! Erin, who’s 37, and Ben, 39, set off on a family vacation after Ben’s incredible weight loss journey. They shared some delightful moments from their trip on Instagram, capturing hearts everywhere.
Family Time in the Spotlight
On Wednesday, August 9, Erin gave us a sneak peek into their vacation with a fun-filled Instagram post. She captioned the carousel of photos, “So, lobster is very tasty #familyvacation,” showing her holding a lobster and posing with her husband. The Napier family, including their daughters Helen and Mae, didn’t reveal their exact destination, but fans were thrilled to see them enjoy some downtime away from their beloved Laurel. Since the show premiered in 2016, Ben and Erin have poured their hearts into every project, and this vacation seemed like the perfect way to recharge.
Erin’s Stylish Update
While scrolling through the comments, you couldn’t help but notice all the love for Erin’s new hairstyle. Fans were quick to compliment her bold decision to chop her blonde locks and embrace a pixie cut, reminiscent of her earlier seasons on Home Town. It’s always exciting to see someone embrace a change that feels authentic, and Erin’s followers are clearly loving it.

Ben’s Fitness Journey
And then there’s Ben, who’s been making waves with his remarkable weight loss. He’s dropped over 65 pounds since deciding to focus on his health a few years ago. This transformation wasn’t just about looks—it was about longevity. After their daughter Helen was born in January 2018, Ben knew he wanted to be around for every moment of her life. He explained, “Having Helen made me want to be healthier so I could be around a lot longer and see her grow up and see her whole life.” That’s the kind of dedication that resonates with everyone.
Building a Healthier Lifestyle
Erin shared on Instagram that Ben has been busy constructing his own gym in their barn since March. It’s clear that fitness is a priority for him, and we’ve even seen glimpses of his routine on Home Town. On July 17, Erin posted a video of Ben looking dapper in a suit, gushing about his commitment to health. She wrote, “@scotsman.co got hardcore about his health and fitness last winter ahead of his big shoulder surgery that was in March so he could sleep better on his back and lower his BP.” It seems like all his efforts have paid off, and fans couldn’t be prouder.
Recovering Stronger
Earlier this year, Ben underwent surgery to repair his rotator cuff, shave off a bone spur, and trim cartilage. Erin and their daughters were there to support him every step of the way during his recovery in their 1920s craftsman cottage. Just a few months later, Ben looked rested and fully recovered as he attended a wedding with Erin. She proudly revealed, “Ben is wearing a tux he last fit into in HIGH SCHOOL.” That’s some serious progress!
