Twin brothers Jonathan and Drew Scott, also known as the “Property Brothers”, help couples find fixer-uppers and transform them into the home of their dreams. Back in 2016, one half of the brother duo, Jonathan, got into an argument with a bartender and had to be taken out of the place by staff.
One of the staff members told the police that Jonathan pulled the “Don’t you know who I am?” line, and that never goes over well in these types of situations. Ultimately, no charges were filed against him, lucky man.
The Show Is Scripted, Fake, and Full of Flaws
The lawsuit wasn't enough for Deena Murphy and Timothy Sullivan. They made sure to put "Love It or List It" on blast, calling out everyone from the hosts to the production crew, accusing them of shooting a fake show, nothing close to what is shown on television.
The couple states in the lawsuit, "The show is scripted, with roles and reactions assigned to the various performers and participants, including the homeowners. These characters are actors or television personalities playing a role for the camera, and in this case, none of them played more than a casual role in the actual renovation process." They seem to hate this show with a passion.
Rehab Addict’s Biggest Failure
The "Rehab Addict" host Nicole Curtis is famous for renovating old homes in Minnesota and Michigan but there was one house that she actually bought in Minneapolis for just two dollars back in 2012. What a steal! She promised to renovate it; however, years later, it remains as she bought it.
Turns out, Curtis never paid all of the necessary taxes on the house, so, the city of Minneapolis obviously sued. There's also a contractor that claims that she didn’t pay him for the work he did on one of her houses.
Property Brothers Aren't Big Fans of Tiny Houses
Drew and Jonathan Scott dissed the whole concept of another fellow HGTV show called Tiny Houses during an interview with the Omaha World-Herald back in 2016.
“The problem is, tiny houses don’t conform to code. It’s fine if you want something that’s kind of a travel camper, something like that, but to actually think about living in a tiny home, it’s not feasible for most families,” said Drew. Was he just "keeping it real", or should he have shown more support of the show?
Identical Appearance, Very Different Love Life
After getting engaged in 2016, Drew and his longtime girlfriend, Linda Phan finally tied the knot in a romantic ceremony in Italy. Meanwhile, Jonathan split up with his girlfriend, Jacinta Kuznetsov, after being together for two years.
Before that, Jonathan was married to an airline crew scheduler named Kelsey but their marriage lasted only two years. In 2019, Jonathan started dating actress and singer Zooey Deschanel and we hope these two are going to make it all the way.
