Fallon asked the famous couple if they would ever return to their TV days to which Chip responded, “We signed a non-disclosure and it said quote unquote you can tell your mother but that’s it. So mom, I just wanted to make a quick announcement, we are coming back to television. You are going to get to see the kids grow up, you are going to see us, well, maybe a six-month delay like the rest of the world, but we are excited to be back.”
Magnolia spokesman John Marsicano confirmed the news to Fox News on Saturday.
“We’re excited to share that we are currently in the early stages of talking with Discovery about a lifestyle-focused media network for Magnolia," he said in a statement. "The details surrounding this opportunity remain a work in progress, but together, our hope is to build a different kind of platform for unique, inspiring and family-friendly content.”
The new network will be another addition to the couple's growing Magnolia empire. Though the pair announced the end of their beloved HGTV series, "Fixer Upper," in 2017, the two have remained very busy.
