HGTV star Leslie Davis is embracing a new chapter with fiancé Don Reidy, confirming her 2022 divorce from her first husband while sharing a sun-soaked California vacation with her new partner and two of her sons, revealing the timeline of her personal life following fan speculation.
Newly engaged HGTV star Leslie Davis is soaking up the California sun with her new fiancé, Don Reidy, and two of her sons, Cash and Cole, marking a significant new chapter in her life.
The Unsellable Houses host shared a glimpse of her getaway with Reidy on Instagram, just weeks after revealing her surprise engagement. “Spent last weekend in the California sun, soaking up time with my boys and laughing our way through amusement parks,” Davis, 42, captioned a carousel of images, which included selfies with Reidy and her sons exploring Universal Studios Hollywood, posing with wax figures, and strolling down the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
The vacation photos offer a first look at Davis and Reidy’s relationship as an engaged couple, showcasing their blended family dynamic. In a separate post, Davis highlighted the quieter moments of the trip, sharing photos of the pool, ocean views, and coffee in bed from their hotel stay.
The journey to this sunny getaway began on January 14, when Davis announced her engagement with a snowy selfie from Leavenworth, Wash. “SURPRISE! Don popped the question during a snowy Leavenworth snowmobile ride, joined by all three of my boys, which made it even more perfect,” she wrote. “Somewhere between sunup-to-sundown chaos and lots of laughs, I found my person. Don, you are my safe place, my teammate, and my favorite adventure buddy.”
Following the engagement announcement, fans were quick to speculate about the timeline of Davis’s relationship, questioning when she had divorced her first husband, Jacob, the father of her three sons. In response, Davis addressed the speculation in a blog post, confirming that she and Jacob had been divorced since 2022.
“Well, 1,000+ social media comments later, you all have a lot of questions. I have chosen to keep this part of my personal life private, a hard thing to do as someone with a show on HGTV,” she wrote. “Jacob and I will always share love for each other, just now in a new way, we have learned to become the best teammates, to lean on each other, to support each other’s new adventures, and always put our boys first.”
Davis clarified that she and Reidy met while filming the fifth season of HGTV’s Rock the Block in Florida in 2023, where he worked as a carpenter. Their friendship blossomed into a relationship, and they dated long-distance for a year before Reidy moved from Colorado to Snohomish, Wash., to be with Davis and her family. The couple’s story, which began on a chaotic TV set, has now led to a new family adventure, culminating in a sunny California vacation that blends her new life with her role as a mother.
