Nicole Curtis is a TV producer, a strong supporter of good things, and the creator of the Hgtv show about the blonde addict in rehab. She is a designer and home renovator who taught herself on her own. She is also a mother, an expert at finding salvage, and a passionate supporter of keeping old homes and neighborhoods alive.

Nicole’s DIY Network and HGTV show, “Rehab Addict,” helps to fix up neighborhoods in Detroit and Minneapolis one house at a time. Her background in interior design, contracting, and real estate helps her do this.

She hasn’t been in the news for more than two years, but the star of HGTV’s Rehab Addict is coming back to TV with a new show and a new attitude.

Meet Nicole Curtis Parents Joanie And Rod

Nicole Curtis was born on August 20, 1976, in Lake Orion, Orion Township, Michigan. She was her parents’ oldest daughter. Joanie Curtis is her mother, and Rod Curtis is her father.

The only thing her parents do for a living is run a garbage business.

In 2016, Nicole’s mother asked for a personal protection order against her, saying that she was getting threatening phone calls and texts. In August, the court said no because she couldn’t change the way a family works with just one stroke of a pen.

Her brother is in the theater. She has been very interested in the entertainment business since she was a child.

Nicole does everything herself, and she wouldn’t have it any other way because she is smart, creative, and always on the go. Her work shows how much she loves reusing old things and making cheap but beautiful designs.

Nicole Curtis has children? What are their names?

Nicole Curtis has two boys for children. Ethan Cimini, her first son, will be 23 years old in 2022. Harper, her second son, is seven years old right now.

She raised both of her sons on her own. Steve Lane, Nicole’s ex-husband, is Ethan’s father, and Shane Maguire, Curtis’s ex-boyfriend, is Harper’s father.

The 46-year-old woman and her ex-boyfriend Shane had a huge fight over who would take care of her second child.

Curtis has talked a lot about how hard it has been for her to be a parent and how her frequent run-ins with her ex-boyfriends and the fathers of her children make things worse.

In the year 2022, does Nicole Curtis have a boyfriend? What is his name?

Nicole Curtis said that her relationship with Ryan Sawtelle was not a secret. After the TV star started following Ryan on Instagram, the beautiful story began.

She kept a close eye on him after Ryan started posting on Instagram about his 8-year-old niece Arden’s fight with diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG), an aggressive brain tumor that is common in children.

The 42-year-old star of “Rehab Addict” tells PEOPLE that she has been dating Ryan Sawtelle for more than a year. Sawtelle started the non-profit White Heart Foundation for the military and is still in charge of it.

Curtis adds that her heart is happy because being near him gives her a peace she’s never had before. Not that things have been easy. Everyone has a great first few months, enjoying what they have in common. After six months, though, you start to focus on other things, and you either grow apart or figure out how to work through your differences and move on.
