These HGTV Stars Are Friends Off Screen

Scott McGillivray, Bryan Baeumler, and Mike Holmes have all starred in multiple shows for HGTV in both Canada and the U.S. So, it might not come as a surprise that these three Canadians are close.

In August 2015, Holmes posted a photo to Facebook of himself, Baeumler, and McGillivray all making a toast. Alongside the photo, he wrote, “Stopped by my buddy Bryan’s house to say hello to a few friends today.” In addition, the Instagram feeds of all three include photos of one another. In April 2021, McGillivray shared to Instagram a playful pic of him alongside a tied-up Holmes sitting in a chair with the caption, “Tell me you want your show to be #1 without telling me you want your show to be #1.” If you swipe right, you’ll find a pic of Baeumler, apparently also in on the gag, also sitting tied up in a chair.

These days, McGillivray and Baeumler get to enjoy their friendship both off screen and on, as they star together in their own HGTV Canada series, “Renovation Resort.” The two regularly post photos and videos of their good times together on set, such as one from April 2023 where McGillivray shared a photo of him and Baeumler, writing, “It’s #havefunatworkday, and I can confidently say that I’m having a blast! Shoutout to the #RenovationResort cast & crew who are always up for a good time! Are your coworkers as fun as mine?”
