Clarifying the Rumors: Egypt Sherrod and Mike Jackson Speak Out
The popular HGTV series *Married to Real Estate* recently came to an unexpected halt, leaving fans wondering about the future of the show and its beloved stars, Egypt Sherrod and Mike Jackson. After the announcement that the show would not be renewed for a fifth season, rumors began circulating that the couple was being invited back to HGTV for a new season or project. However, Sherrod and Jackson quickly addressed these speculations, putting the rumors to rest.
In an Instagram video posted on August 21, 2025, Mike Jackson directly confronted the misinformation. “Let’s clear the air. There have been articles and rumors going around that we’ve been asked or invited back to HGTV. And I’ll say this: unless you hear it from us or we have our representation say it, it’s not true,” Jackson stated firmly. Egypt Sherrod echoed this sentiment, revealing that she had come across numerous articles falsely quoting them about a potential return. “I was like, ‘Mike, look at this.’ It was, like, nine articles that actually had quotes from us about going back to HGTV. I’m like, ‘These are just flat-out lies,’” Sherrod explained.
The couple’s candid response was met with relief and support from their followers, who appreciated the transparency amid the swirling misinformation.

In the caption accompanying their Instagram post, the couple wrote, “FAKE NEWS: No we were not asked back despite the articles reporting and supposedly quoting us. No we are not on the brink of divorce despite the awful lies. Anything involving US, you will hear first and straight from US. Love you ❤️.”
Egypt Sherrod also shared a heartfelt message reflecting on the journey of the show and their gratitude for the experience.

She expressed appreciation for the four incredible seasons, the dedicated crew, and the loyal fans who supported them throughout the series. “And most of all—grateful that we are still very much married to real estate (and to each other),” she added.
