Mika Kleinschmidt & Brian Kleinschmidt’s Relationship History
Mika and her husband, Brian Kleinschmidt, are HGTV favorites: they work well together on renovation projects, but they also have a fascinating personal history. The couple were friends long before their relationship turned romantic.
In an Instagram post on HGTV’s page in October 2025, they shared personal details of how they first met. “We both are very competitive. Looking all the way back to high school, we used to race each other to the lunchroom,” Brian recalled. “We had history class right before lunch, and we would stand by the door. As soon as the bell rang, we took off.”
Mika also revealed that while they shared a competitive spirit, she and Brian were “complete opposites” in high school. “For me, especially, because I had moved to four different high schools, I was just ready to be done,” she said.
They reconnected later in life and started dating in 2011 before marrying in 2015. The couple started working on “100 Day Dream Home” in 2020 and love what they do. In the HGTV video, Brian asked Mika what she would be doing if they were not hosting the show. To which she replied, “Either an attorney, or, yeah, I think, a musician. But, I don’t know. It seems like a lot of work, going on tour.” Fans are likely happy that her path led her to HGTV.
