HGTV Star Sparks Concern as ‘Rehab Addict’ Goes Off Air After Two Episodes

Nicole Curtis’s wildly popular show Rehab Addict was pulled from the HGTV lineup after just two of the new season’s episodes aired.

That move caused fans of the bubbly blonde from Detroit to worry that something had happened to her.

But fans need not worry, Nicole pulled the show herself, to give herself the summer off.

The HGTV star took to Instagram to explain her decision to her fans why her good friend David Bromstad’s Lottery Dream House would be airing in her show’s place.

Nicole, 48, began by thanking her viewers for making her show debut at number one before she dove into what was going on. 

‘I made the executive decision to shelf the rest of our new shows until Fall. I appreciate your support and understanding for the late notice,’ she began.

‘It’s just a lot of hours (my hours) to get a show on air and we (my family +me) thought -why are we giving up Summer when we have the ability to do this in the Fall?’ she noted.

She went on to thank the ‘powers that be at HGTV’ for being ‘receptive to our idea.’ 

The star continued: ‘Third, without a doubt, I, truly, am beyond happy with this decision as I just spent the day with a phone that was dead and had no worries about it.

‘They are airing Lottery Dream Home in my place. Fun fact, David Bromstead was my pregnancy beach buddy as we were filming and living next to each other in Gulf Shores Alabama for Beach Flip (they just added those episodes to HboMax and Discovery+) So, don’t be spreading rumors that he replaced me-I chose it ❤️.’

The newest season of Rehab Addict premiered on June 24, only to be abruptly swapped out for My Lottery Dream House after 2 weeks.

Rehab Addict first hit the airwaves in 2010 on the DIY Network. The show moved to HGTV in 2014 where it found broad appeal. The new season follows a three year hiatus for Curtis and the show.

As for why she took time away, Curtis said she ‘had a setback in my life that just rocked me to the core, and it was one of those moments where I thought, how do I get through this one?,’ per People.

‘I prayed on it and it was just devastating for me. I had to make a decision right there and then like, “Okay, we’re going to let this affect us for a very long time, or we’re going to pick it up and go”‘

She packed up her bags and left Detroit for Corfu, Greece via Paris where she planned to spend only one day.

Except, she forgot her wallet and had less than $100 on her.

‘I didn’t realize until I was up in the air paying for my WiFi that I left my wallet behind,’ she said. 

‘I didn’t have a credit card on me. I had $72 of change in dollar bills stashed in my bag. So I landed in Paris without a wallet. I thought, well, you know what? This is it. This is my test. I’m going to figure it out.’

Fortunately, a friend was able to transfer her some money via Western Union.

‘It was so crazy that I was like, “This was a sign” and I made it through,’ she recalled.

She made the most of her time in Paris in the meantime.

‘I put on my running shoes, I ran all the way around the Eiffel Tower and I biked around the Champs-Élysées. I did everything I wanted to do.’

But Curtis never made it to Corfu, an irresistible house rehab project in Wyoming brought her back to the States instead.

Curtis spoke to TooFab about returning to the show in the days leading to its premiere last month.

‘So we never stopped rehabbing homes. We’re always rehabbing homes. And you know, in the past 3 years I developed my production company and we’ve still been filming and producing,’ Curtis explained. 

‘But it takes a really long time to finish one of our houses. So three years sounds like a lot. 

‘However, for us, that’s about how long it takes you a house, so it all kind of goes hand in hand.’
