In the best turn of events we could possibly think of, Married to Real Estate is getting the recognition it deserves.
Just when fans were still reeling from the shocking news that HGTV had pulled the plug on the beloved home improvement show, Egypt Sherrod and Mike Jackson dropped a plot twist worthy of primetime TV: the show has been nominated for an Emmy!
In a joyful Instagram video, the couple shared that Married to Real Estate is officially up for “Outstanding Instructional/How-To Program” which is a massive honor, especially considering the show has wrapped for good. One could argue that the nomination feels like poetic justice.

And just in case that didn’t give you absolute chills, they closed their lengthy caption thanking fans for their support by saying, “Man said no, but God said YES.”
The nomination is a true testament to the show’s impact on fans. Between the couple’s charisma, authenticity, and real-estate knowledge, HGTV fans loved watching them transform fixer-uppers. And, they did all of this while balancing marriage, parenting, and a business.
Naturally, fans of the show had a lot to say about the exciting announcement. Comments on the post flooded in with congratulations and calls to revive the show. One fan wrote, “Of course you got nominated!! Your show is awesome! Well deserved nomination 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻.” Others chimed in by saying, “Congratulations 🎊Your show was my favorite on the network” and “You are too talented to be held back! ❤️❤️❤️❤️” It’s pretty safe to stay that the people aren’t quite ready to say goodbye just yet.
