Rehab Addict Host Explains Show's Abrupt Removal From HGTV Schedule

Rehab Addict's sudden absence from the HGTV schedule is only temporary, host Nicole Curtis has assured viewers.

In an Instagram post on Tuesday, Curtis explained why Rehab Addict's newest season — which premiered on June 24 — has since been replaced in the 9 pm ET time slot by My Lottery Dream Home after only two airings.

"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," Curtis wrote. "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? Thank you to the powers at be at HGTV that were receptive to our idea. ... 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," she continued. "Fun fact, [Lottery Dream Home host] David Bromstad was my pregnancy beach buddy as we were filming and living next to each other in Gulf Shores, Alabama, for Beach Flip. ... So, don't be spreading rumors that he replaced me – I chose it."

Rehab Addict — which began airing on the DIY Network in 2010 before moving to HGTV in 2014 — follows Curtis as she rehabilitates condemned properties and restores them to their former glory. Although Curtis has indicated a Fall 2025 comeback for the series, an exact return date has yet to be shared.

The Rehab Addict reshuffle comes amid recent scheduling upheaval at HGTV: Since late June, the hosts of no fewer than five shows at the cabler — Battle on the Beach, Farmhouse Fixer, Married to Real Estate, Bargain Block and Izzy Does It — have all stated their series won't be returning for additional seasons.

HGTV has not responded to multiple requests for comment on the apparent cancellation spree.
