As fans of HGTV’s beloved show Good Bones prepare to bid farewell to the series, Mina Starsiak Hawk has shared some heartfelt and emotional revelations about her personal life. In a recent announcement, Mina revealed that season 8 will mark the end of the show that’s brought so much joy to viewers. But that wasn’t the only bombshell she dropped. The real estate guru also opened up about her strained relationships with certain family members, including her mom Karen E. Laine and her brothers Tad and William Starsiak. Let’s dive deeper into what’s happening behind the scenes in Mina’s world.
What’s the Current Status of Mina Starsiak Hawk’s Relationship With Karen E. Laine?
In a candid moment, Mina shocked fans of HGTV by sharing the complexities of her family dynamics. During an episode of her podcast “Mina AF,” she gave listeners an inside look at her challenging relationships with her loved ones. “Let’s just say, my mom and I aren’t in a great place. My brother Tad and I aren’t in a great place either. And as for my brother William, well, it’s like we barely exist in each other’s lives,” Mina revealed in August 2023. “It’s complicated, but honestly, it’s not even that complicated. We just don’t engage much, and when we do, it doesn’t go well. The last time we did was over a year ago, and it wasn’t positive.”
When it comes to her relationship with her mom, Karen E. Laine, Mina admitted that there’s no single incident that caused the rift. “It’s not like there’s one specific thing that my mom and I can point to and say, ‘Oh, this is the problem, and if we fix this, we’ll be fine.’ It’s not that simple,” she explained in a September 2023 podcast episode. “It’s more like a buildup of things—little moments, big moments, all the way from when I was a kid. It’s been building for so long, and undoing that kind of damage is incredibly difficult.”

Interestingly, Karen reached out to Mina via text in October after a long period of silence. “I woke up one morning to a text from my mom saying maybe we should talk. Honestly, I didn’t know what to do with it,” Mina confessed. She didn’t elaborate on whether she replied to her mom’s message, leaving fans wondering if reconciliation is on the horizon.
Is Mina Starsiak Hawk Still Speaking to Brother Tad Starsiak?
When it comes to Mina’s relationship with her brother Tad, things are still pretty rocky. The siblings had a heated exchange over text messages, which led Mina to conclude that Tad wasn’t someone she wanted to have in her life. “Tad said some truly awful things to me, and I’m sure he’d say the same about me. But the most recent things he said, they can’t be taken back. They’re right there in black and white,” she explained. “It was kind of the last straw for me.”
As of now, it seems like the siblings aren’t speaking, despite their interactions on recent episodes of Good Bones. It’s a tough situation, but Mina is standing her ground and prioritizing her own well-being.
What’s the Story Behind Mina Starsiak Hawk and Brother William Starsiak?
There’s a bit of good news on the family front: Mina has managed to mend fences with her brother William Starsiak. “William and I are good now. We’ve worked things out, and it feels great,” she shared. While the road to reconciliation wasn’t easy, it’s clear that Mina values the bond she shares with William and is grateful for the progress they’ve made.
