Are HGTV’s Mina Starsiak Hawk & Steve Hawk Still Together?
It’s been more than two years since the final episode of Good Bones aired on HGTV in October 2023. During its eight-season run, which began in 2016, the show featured Karen E. Laine and her daughter, Mina Starsiak Hawk, renovating homes, together at first, and then separately after their falling out and Karen’s retirement from the family company.
Throughout Good Bones, fans also got to meet other members of Karen and Mina’s families, including Mina’s husband, Steve Hawk. But where do the two stand now? Scroll down for everything to know about their relationship and more.
Are Mina Starsiak Hawk and Steve Hawk still together?
Yes, Mina and Steve are still happily married. They continue to document their relationship on social media, including, most recently, an end-of-year trip to New Zealand.
In November 2024, Steve honored Mina with a sweet birthday tribute for her 40th birthday. “When we met she was 28. Today she’s 40,” he gushed. “We’ve lived a few lifetimes in that time. Quite literally the best mother to our children and my absolute best friend that I could ask for. In 40 more years I can’t wait to be doing projects around the house with you. Rearranging the pantry and coat closets each month. Cheers to 40 more years Mina. Those that know her, know she’s a real G. They don’t get better. Happy 40th birthday.”

Mina also paid tribute to her husband for Father’s Day 2025, gushing, “The different looks of Father’s Day for the last handful of years 🤍🤍🤍 The one constant; we’re all together, in one of the most beautiful places, loving one another.”
How did Mina Starsiak Hawk and Steve Hawk meet?
Mina and Steve met in 2013 through a mutual friend on Facebook. She saw a photo of him and thought he was good looking, so they ended up going out to watch a basketball game with a group of friends.
“He ignored me all night,” Mina previously told Country Living. “He let his friend hit on me.” Mina still got Steve’s number that night, though, and texted him, “We’re going to try this again tomorrow. You get one more shot.”
He ended up doing much better the second time around. The pair started dating, although they “broke up for a while” at one point, Karen shared. “He behaved really badly, in a phenomenally badly way,” she said, without specifying exactly what Steve did.
Ultimately, Mina and Steve got engaged in 2015 and tied the knot the following year.
Does Mina Starsiak Hawk have kids?
Yes, Mina and Steve share two children. Their son Jack was born on August 9, 2018, followed by daughter Charlotte “Charlie” on September 16, 2020.

After Jack was born, Mina dealt with secondary infertility and was told she had less than a 1% chance of getting pregnant again. The couple tried in-vitro fertilization (IVF), which failed. After getting a second opinion, they opted to try intrauterine insemination (IUI).
“It’s a fancy word for the turkey-baster method, and I didn’t expect it to work,” Mina admitted to People. It did end up working, though, which brought Charlie to the family months later.
What happened to Steve Hawk’s family?
Steve has dealt with many family tragedies over the years. His mom died of stomach cancer in 2018, and then his dad died after falling down the stairs just six months later.
Then, in March 2020, Steve’s sister, Stefanie Hawk, died. Mina revealed that Stefanie’s cause of death was ethanol poisoning, which stemmed from drinking too much alcohol.
“There were so many bottles,” Mina shared. “Just seeing how the last however long of her life had been was so incredibly sad. And then the guilt with not being able to do something about it, like, ‘Well we should’ve gone to her house sooner. We should have made her go to rehab. We should’ve made her move in with us.’ But nobody knew.”
Steve revealed on the Mina AF podcast that both of his parents dealt with alcoholism when he was growing up. He referred to his mom as a “full-blown alcoholic” and his dad as a “functioning alcoholic.” He explained, “It just got so bad at one point there was homelessness, multiple interventions, in and out of hospitals for my mom.” He later noticed similar patterns with Stefanie.
“She started to have a pattern of behavior where every Monday and Tuesday she didn’t feel good, she wasn’t coming in, she was isolating, she wouldn’t let anyone into her house, she wouldn’t come to anything,” he recalled.
In 2021, Steve gave up drinking and decided to live alcohol-free. “What really did it for me was when I … this is going to be hard to say, but when I realized that I don’t want to give my children a reason to not have a relationship with me,” he explained, later adding, “I’m never going to allow my children to have a negative relationship with me on things that I can control, and I can control my alcohol intake.”
What does Mina Starsiak Hawk’s husband do for a living?
Steve has a fitness company called HawkFit. He is a certified fitness and nutrition expert and founded the company in 2021 after receiving his certifications.
HawkFit offers personal training for people of all levels and in all phases of life. There’s a nutritional component to the training, as well.
“My goal at HawkFit is simple yet powerful: to help you find, nurture, and strengthen your best self,” Steve’s website says. “I think focus, commitment, and knowing your motivations are crucial. I will advise you throughout with my experience and constant support.”
Steve describes his program as a “fitness journey” that’s “not just exercise,” adding that he’s available “24/7” to help his clients succeed.
