Chip Gaines was born in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Along with his wife and business partner, Joanna Gaines, Chip owns countless business ventures in Waco, Texas and co-stars in HGTV’s reality TV show The Fixer Upper. Magnolia Real Estate, owned by the couple, owns some of the properties featured on the show which are also furnished by, you guessed it, Joanna’s line Magnolia Furniture.
The couple have four kids and live and work in Waco, Texas in a beautiful 1,700 square foot Victorian farmhouse. With 40 acres of land it seems that Chip can’t help himself when it comes to farm animals and pets alike. Apparently, surprising his wife with bottle-fed calves instead of flowers isn’t out of the norm for this Texan.
