HGTV’s Jenny Marrs Addresses ‘Weird’ Reports About Her Husband’s Health

Jenny Marrs shared an important reminder — you can’t believe everything you read. The HGTV star addressed rumors about her husband Dave being hospitalized, assuring fans that it was “fake news” using AI photos.


Jenny Marrs Clears Up ‘Weird’ Reports About Dave Marrs, AI Photos

On January 7, Marrs took to her Instagram Stories to clear up fake news stories about her and Dave.

“Hi friends! Quick reminder that anything posted on Facebook NOT on my official page is most likely completely and totally made up,” she wrote.

Marrs continued, “I post on my page here on IG and typically share to my FB page. There are lots of fake pages pretending to be me or ‘news outlets’ or pages pretending to be HGTV.”

She added, “They are not us. HGTV would never post anything personal about us either!”

Marrs shared screenshots of untrue stories, including one showing Dave in the hospital.

“These are fake news pages and AI GENERATED photos! This is not a real photo of Dave,” she explained.

The HGTV star shared another screenshot and explained, “THIS IS AN AI PHOTO. And no, Dave has not been hospitalized.”

She added, “I have had several friends check in after seeing [these] weird articles. He’s sitting next to me drinking coffee in front of the fire right now.”

Marrs ended with a good reminder for everyone about the internet. “Rule of thumb: if I didn’t share it, assume it’s a lie and if it’s a really horrible photo (usually of me crying), assume it’s AI,” she wrote. “I’ve never posted a crying photo. And never would (for clicks). But that’s what these sites do!”


Dave & Jenny Marrs Are Enjoying a Family Vacation

After her PSA, Marrs returned to posting all the joy of her family vacation.

On January 3, she took to Instagram to share the details of their much-needed escape from a heartbreaking 2025.

“After a year of immense loss and grief for our family, we have chosen to be more intentional than ever with our most precious resource: time,” she wrote.

Marrs continued, “We knew that going to the place that brings us immense joy, surrounded by dear friends who feel like extensions of our family, with the everyday pressures of life stripped away, was the perfect way to close out 2025 and fully embrace the new year. Here on these ancient streets, we exhaled deeply together. We laughed heartily. We dispensed ‘auguri!’ freely and hugged old friends on the street.”

“We nourished our bodies with real food, savoring the meals and the deep conversations,” Marrs noted. “We soaked in the immense beauty of the landscape, snapping photos as cascading rays of sunlight painted the valley with a golden warmth.”

The “Fixer to Fabulous” star added, “I boarded the train this morning with a heart that feels a little more stitched together and, yet, a piece of it was left behind. Alla prossima, Italia!”
