‘Home Town’ Takes Nashville! Erin and Ben Napier Are All

[]

Match made in heaven! Ben and Erin Napier had a love story worthy of a television show long before they started appearing on HGTV.

The Home Town stars met when they were both students at Jones County Junior College in Mississippi. The couple began dating in December 2004 and quickly decided that they had found The One.

“On December 7, 2004 [Ben] and I met in our college yearbook room about the feature story we were writing about him,” Erin recalled via Instagram in December 2019. “I was the design editor and for two years had noticed him, always the center of attention, everyone’s best friend, my biggest crush. December 8, we took the photos for the yearbook. December 9, we went on our first date and he met my mama. December 10, we looked at the Christmas lights in Mason Park. December 13, we decided we would get married someday. It sounds crazy to you, maybe. But it makes perfect sense to me.”

Ben and Erin got engaged in September 2007 and tied the knot in November 2008. After renovating their home, the pair caught the eye of HGTV, who offered them a show. Home Town premiered in January 2016 and features renovations in their hometown of Laurel, Mississippi.

Amid their success, the TV personalities welcomed daughters Helen and Mae in January 2018 and May 2021, respectively. With parenthood, though, came criticism from internet trolls.

I like to begin with: ‘You would absolutely not speak to me this way in person. Why do you feel like it’s OK to do it here? It’s not. And this little corner of the internet belongs to me so you’re not welcome here anymore.’ … Anytime someone feels like they can be rude on my social media account, I’d like to let them know this isn’t an acceptable way to communicate and you’re not going to be welcome here anymore, and I block them.”

Despite the naysayers, Ben and Erin have never lost sight of each other on their journey to fame. “It’s Erin and me,” he told CountryLiving.com in March 2017. “Not Erin and me and our moms, not Erin and me and the network, not Erin and me and our fans, if you want to call them that. As far as our marriage goes, it’s me and Erin and God. We work everything out together, and everything has worked out so far.”

The twosome met while they were students at Jones County Junior College.

September 2007

Ben proposed to Erin at a bookstore after having her read a handmade book that detailed their love story.  

“I walked up to the balcony where Ben was standing,” she wrote in a July 2011 blog post. “He took my hand and tried to speak, but he began to cry and so did I. So he leaned down to my ear and whispered this: ‘You know how much I love you? … And you know I will always take care of you. … I talked to Mammaw (my grandmother) … and in the words of James Rasberry, ‘I’ve got something for you.’’ Then he got down on one knee and said: ‘Will you marry me?’ And I couldn’t say yes enough or cry enough. It was the most shocking and beautiful moment of my life.”

May 2021

Ben and Erin’s second child, daughter Mae, arrived in May 2021. They kept their pregnancy news secret for months but hinted at their expanding family in January of that year.

“It’s just a non-negotiable, every night at 7:30 the girls are in bed, then that’s our time to be us,” Erin exclusively told Us about how they find time for each other as a couple.

She added that their work schedule allows them to see one another during the day as well. “We have that advantage that I think a lot of couples don’t have,” the mother of two said. “Some people must drive each other crazy being together all day, but it’s the only way we’ve ever [done it].”
