HGTV star Jenny Marrs of Fixer to Fabulous fame is opening up about the difficulty she and her family faced in 2025.
TV Insider reported that on December 31, Jenny took to Instagram to discuss her plans for 2026. In the caption, she explained that she has been "recording prayers for" the new year.
"As I’ve shared before, rather than New Year’s resolutions, which are based on my own will-power and grit, I record specific prayers for the coming year. I’ve found that as I pray the prayers throughout the year, they redirect my heart, attitude and actions to the One who authors my story in ways I could never begin to hope or imagine on my own. I just have a slightly different view this year!" wrote Jenny in the post's caption.
She then referenced that she and her husband, Dave Marrs, recently lost several loved ones. TV Insider reported that Dave's mother, Donna, Jenny's grandmother, their beloved dog, Dolly, and their close friends and neighbors, Jill and Bob, died within the past year.
"2025 was a really, really hard year for our family, yet, as I read through my prayers from 365 days ago, I see God’s hand all over my life and the lives of those I love. I’m ending this year a bit melancholy, sad to step into a new one without four dearly, dearly loved ones and our Dolly-girl, but I’m also grateful," stated Jenny.
She explained that she is "grateful for the nearness of God through it all and for the gentle way He continues to restore [her] soul despite the presence of sorrow." In addition, she feels hopeful about 2026.
"May 2026 be a year of joy-filled moments, new adventures, peaceful days, and deep, soul rest," shared Jenny in her December 31 upload.
