Inside the rift between HGTV mother-daughter duo Mina Starsiak Hawk and Karen E. Laine, and where the 'Good Bones' stars stand now

"On their HGTV series, "Good Bones," which premiered in 2016, Hawk and Laine renovated homes in Indianapolis through their company Two Chicks and a Hammer. Laine stepped back from the company in 2019 but continued appearing on the show. The series quickly became popular on the network, as did its spinoff, "Good Bones: Risky Business." In August 2023, Hawk announced the series was ending and opened up about the fraught nature of her relationship with Laine on her podcast "Mina AF.""

""Good Bones" briefly returned for a limited season in August 2024, though Hawk and Laine appeared on the series separately.
