Chip and Joanna Gaines 'actually do the stupidest things' on date night
Chip and Joanna Gaines are one of the most well-known duos on TV. They’ve been working together on their Fixer Upper show since 2013, but they’ve been together since 2003, having built their businesses, home, and family, well before joining HGTVs lineup.

We actually do the stupidest things,” says Joanna Gaines. “We’re like, ‘Let’s go act like we’re 15.’ We try to do date night every Tuesday night, and the kids know that mom and dad are going to do something.
