“It seems like a story. Sometimes it doesn’t feel real,” Mina told HGTV about what she and Steve have overcome during their 10 years together.

Despite his huge success with the cable series, one of Steve’s most important things is being a current father alongside a real estate agent.

“If our kids get 1/2 your willpower, then I know I won’t have to worry about them too much. Thank you for all you do, Mina,” he wrote on Instagram.

Mina and Steve first met in 2013 after she came across her now-husband’s Facebook page and started talking. Their first meeting was at a sporting event organized by a mutual friend, and it almost ended in disaster.

“He ignored me all night,” Mina said Life in the countryside. “He allowed his friend to attack me!”

Steve later recalled to HGTV that he felt “intimidated” when he saw her across the bar, wearing an Indianapolis Colts sweater, and he was trying to “play it cool.”

However, after securing his phone number, the housekeeper gave him a second chance and texted him: “We’ll try this again tomorrow – you have one more chance.”

After battling secondary infertility and being told she had less than a 1 percent chance of getting pregnant with baby no. 2, the couple welcomed their daughter, Charlotte “Charlie” Drew Hawk, on September 16, 2020.

“She’s here! And she’s perfect! We’re just obsessed with our little family and can’t wait for Jack to be the best big brother to sweet Charlie,” the couple told PEOPLE at the time.

They spoke openly about their experience of infertility

A year after giving birth to Jack, Mina revealed that it took her a while to get pregnant again. Speaking to PEOPLE 2020, the renovator shared that after three months of not being able to conceive, she and Steve decided to start the first line of fertility treatments and drugs.

During the process, the couple were told that Mina had less than a 1 percent chance of conceiving and they tried in vitro fertilization (IVF), but unfortunately it didn’t work. In early 2020, the couple sought a second opinion and were suggested to try intrauterine insemination (IUI) instead.

“We wanted to try one more time,” she said. “And then I think we’d both be fine and we’d be done, but one more time it worked.”

Soon after, Mina and Steve learned that the treatment was successful when she took a test, which was positive.

“When I said [Steve] I was pregnant with Jack, he just started crying. When I told him I was pregnant this time, it was a shock,” she said of that moment.

Mina added: “There were so many happy tears. We are incredibly lucky.”

He gave up alcohol in 2021

During the August 2023 episode of Mina’s podcast. Mine AFthe husband and wife duo candidly described their relationship with alcohol and what led them to quit drinking.

Steve shared that his parents struggled with alcoholism all their lives. The couple also revealed that Steve’s sister, Stefanie Hawk, died of ethanol poisoning in 2020. (Two years prior, his mother died of stomach cancer and his father died six months later after falling down the stairs.)

His family’s relationship with alcohol prompted him to quit drinking in 2021, a decision partly inspired by their children. Steve thought about how it affected his relationship with his parents and he didn’t want the same thing to happen to his son and daughter.

“I realized that I didn’t want to give my children a reason not to have a relationship with me,” he said.

Mina’s husband added: “I will never let my children have a negative attitude towards me about things that I can control, and I can control my alcohol intake.”

He and Mina will share their lake house renovation on Good bones spinoff series

In an exclusive clip from the show shared by PEOPLE, Mina talked about how she wants to create happy memories in their new home.

“She’s going through life in the best possible way after just a really, really epic loss in a very, very short time,” she says in the clip. “And because his time with his family was cut short, that’s why we wanted this lake house for Jack and Charlie — really, long-term, for memories, for experiences. I think that’s why it’s really important to both of us.”
