Flea Market Flip, hosted by Lara Spencer, concluded its 14-season run on HGTV in 2019 after going on an indefinite hiatus due to the COVID-19 pandemic. While it is no longer in production, the show remains popular on streaming platforms like Max. Host Lara Spencer is launching a new, similar design competition show, That Thrifting Show, on Freeform/Hulu in March 2026.
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.
Six years after the end of Flea Market Flip, Lara Spencer is heading back to TV with a brand new design competition series. The Good Morning America star will host and executive produce the upcoming Freeform and Hulu series That Thrifting Show.
Now, for those who don't know, this isn't the first time Lara has starred on a lifestyle show outside of GMA. She was previously the face of Flea Market Flip, which aired on HGTV for 14 seasons from 2012 to 2019.
In addition to being one of the many faces of ABC's GMA, Spencer is well-known for hosting all 14 seasons of HGTV's Flea Market Flip. The show, which ran from 2012 to 2019, followed competitors as they used a budget of $500 to revamp and resell flea market finds.
Lara Spencer Is BACK With New Show After Flea Market Flip Cancelation
What does Lara Spencer do now?
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.
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.
However, a source tells E! News that simply is not true. "Lara and Michael are very close friends," the insider said. Thursday morning, his GMA co-anchors, including Spencer, George Stephanopoulos and Robin Roberts offered him a warm congratulatory welcome.
You'll be happy to know that the show is in fact real. They do frequent the same Flea markets over and over again in the series. Sometimes they will do multiple recordings and different teams in one day.
The network sparked controversy in July when it revealed that it was canceling several popular shows: "Bargain Block," "Married to Real Estate," "Farmhouse Fixer," "Izzy Does It," "Christina on the Coast," and "The Flipping El Moussas."
With a total of 10 seasons and 155 episodes, Flip or Flop reportedly garnered more than 90 million viewers since its premiere. The series was ultimately canceled in 2022, when the show reportedly became “too intimate” for Haack and El Moussa, who divorced in 2018.
The rift between Ripa and Strahan famously arose when Ripa was blindsided by the news that Strahan would be moved to the network's marquee show, “GMA,” without any heads-up from her co-host or ABC News execs. She was told of the change an hour before it was publicly announced.
Lara recently underwent two surgeries on her feet. "If I look a little groggy it's thanks to this guy who just gave me a new pair of boots," she captioned her post. "My right foot was easy—just had [a] plate removed from surgery last year. The left is a bigger deal from a very old college diving injury.

Lara Spencer has finalized her divorce from David Haffenreffer, E! News can confirm. The Good Morning America co-host and her ex "are still close friends," says a source. Spencer and Haffenreffer, a CNN reporter turned real estate broker, announced in March that they were separating after 15 years of marriage.
Good Morning America star Lara Spencer announced a new TV project on Instagram. The news anchor revealed she will star on a new series called That Thrifting Show, set to air in March 2026 on Freeform and Hulu. Lara was previously a host on the HGTV design series Flea Market Flip.
By Episode 17, Lara ended their friendship. “It's a shame because you don't have my back. And like our friendship — I don't know if I can do this,” she told Tzarina in their shared cabin. Tzarina made it clear there was no love lost between them.
