Erin Napier is staying as busy as ever with the Home Town franchise on HGTV, which she and her husband, Ben, have been doing for over a decade. So, as she turned 40 and entered a new chapter of life, it was supposed to be great. However, she got candid about why her birthday actually felt like a "funeral."
The designer and entrepreneur turned 40 last August, but it’s been a trying year. She and Ben continued to work on Home Town and were even in the midst of renovating a hotel for their series Home Town: Inn This Together, streaming now with an HBO Max subscription. The hotel, unfortunately, caught on fire, with Napier revealing the tragic news in December. As expected, it was tough news to swallow, especially since it happened right around Napier’s birthday milestone.
