Chip Carter Gaines (born November 14, 1974) is an American actor, producer, television personality, contractor, and author who, along with his wife Joanna Gaines, stars on the show Fixer Upper, which began airing on HGTV in 2013. By the time they filmed the pilot for Fixer Upper, the pair had already renovated 100 houses as a part of their business.[1][2]

The Gaineses also helm the media brand Magnolia, which encompasses the Magnolia E-commerce site, the Hearth & Hand with Magnolia collection of home décor items for Target, the lifestyle magazine Magnolia Journal, the Magnolia Network television channel on which Fixer Upper and its spinoff series now air, the Magnolia Realty real estate brokerage (originally established by the pair in 2003), and the Magnolia App.[3]

Gaines is also the New York Times bestselling author of two self-help books and the co-author of the memoir The Magnolia Story with Joanna.[4]
