One Christina On The Coast Episode Took An Unexpected Turn
By RHIANNON FAITH IRELAND
While Christina Hall and James Bender of “Christina on the Coast” are no strangers to designing homes, one episode almost left the pair speechless.
In the episode, couple Amy and Scott asked Hall and Bender to redesign their fireplace, and all seemed to be going well until the interior designers returned with tile samples.
They found that the couple had used their own contacts to refurbish the fireplace. Amy and Scott then shared they wanted a bar in the same room, and the designers agreed to help.
However, Amy and Scott decided to source outside contractors, breaking HGTV protocol and potentially hurting the designers’ feelings by disregarding their advice for the bar.
Hall took control of the awkward situation, sharing with the camera, “It’s not the first or last time a client went rogue. It could be a lot worse.”
She also told Amy and Scott that she hoped they could communicate properly in the future to avoid a similar incident happening again.
Fans were disappointed the couple bypassed Hall’s design advice, and on the HGTV Instagram post for the episode, one user wrote that the couple should “trust your designer.”
