Flea Market Flip won the "Daytime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lifestyle Program" in 2017 during the 44th Daytime Creative Arts Emmy Awards. The show went on an indefinite hiatus after 2019 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
“And all I'll say is if you liked Flea Market Flip, you're gonna be very happy,” she teased. Spencer previously hosted 14 seasons of HGTV's Flea Market Flip when it ran from 2012 to 2019.
She is best known for her work on ABC's Good Morning America, previously as co-anchor and currently as contributor. She is also a correspondent for Nightline and ABC News.
Lara Spencer is an Emmy-winning anchor and reporter for Good Morning America, and has been a journalist with ABC news since 2000. She is also the creator, host and Executive Producer of HGTV's Emmy® Award-winning “Flea Market Flip” as well as “Everything But the House."
Lara Spencer is back on the air, and back on both feet, after undergoing dual surgeries. “All is well” after the two foot procedures, Spencer told her “Good Morning America” co-hosts as she returned to her post Friday. She added that she has been “just kicking back” and “relaxing” as she heals, People reported.
Grouped in teams, the contestants in each episode are given a budget of about $500 to hunt for project pieces with potential. The team that does the best job of flipping trash for cash wins $5,000.
Why is it called a Flea Market if they don't sell fleas?
Though the history of flea markets is difficult to pinpoint, the term “Flea Market”, may come from the French moniker, “marché aux puces”, a title that was given to a Parisian market that specialized in selling second-hand goods – which may or may not have contained actual fleas.
Lara attended Penn State University on an athletic scholarship for springboard and platform diving. She later graduated with a degree in broadcast journalism and was named an All American Athlete in her senior year.
In the comments section, Charles Spencer's followers couldn't help but notice the striking resemblance between Lady Lara and her late aunt, Princess Diana. Lady Lara is practically a carbon copy of the former Princess of Wales, from her eyes to her bright smile.
At the time, she told fans that she had a "torn plantar plate and ligament in my foot." Lara is no stranger to surgeries and had a hip replacement at 47 too. "It was so upsetting," Lara said on GMA after her diagnosis.
