## Resource

Steven and Angelina Jacobs faced homelessness while filming HGTV’s Battle on the Beach, crashing on a relative’s couch and storing their belongings in a U-Haul, yet kept pushing forward with relentless determination. Angelina, a seasoned renovation pro, and Steven, her partner, drove back and forth to jobs, hiding their struggle from the cameras. For them, winning wasn’t just about cash—it was about stability and a fresh start. After filming ended, they remained homeless for a month before finally securing an apartment in Waterbury, Connecticut, with their family. Now rebuilding their lives and business, their journey from truck to TV to home is a powerful testament to grit and resilience.
