Hey there, friends! You’ve probably heard by now that TLC is bringing back the beloved show Trading Spaces, and boy, are fans flipping out in the best way possible! But you know who’s just as thrilled as the audience? That’s right, the show’s iconic host, Paige Davis! In a recent, exclusive sit-down with Closer Weekly, Paige opened up about reuniting with her OG co-stars for this exciting reboot. “It was truly magical,” she said enthusiastically. “It felt like we never even left. All of our original, legendary designers are back, and we’ve also welcomed a couple of fresh faces into the mix!” Paige shared these thoughts while working with Purina during their Better with Pets @Home editor showcase in NYC back in April.
Back Together Again: The Magic of Reunion
Now, let’s talk about how surreal it must’ve felt to step back into the world of Trading Spaces. “We kept looking at each other, asking, ‘Has it really been 10 years, or does it feel like just 10 weeks?’” Paige recalled with a laugh. “It was like picking up where we left off—no skipping a beat. It’s this incredible feeling, like the band’s back together, and we’re on tour again.” Can you even imagine how that must’ve felt? Like slipping on a favorite pair of shoes that still fit perfectly.
The Chemistry That Shines Through
But here’s the real kicker: it’s not just about the on-screen magic. Turns out, the Trading Spaces crew is as tight off-screen as they are in front of the camera. “We actually hang out together. We’re like a big, dysfunctional family—brothers and sisters who fight hard and love even harder,” Paige revealed. “There’s literally nothing they don’t know about me. They’re my biggest cheerleaders and critics, but in the best possible way. We lift each other up so much, and I think that bond really shines through in every scene. The viewers can definitely feel it.” Isn’t that just the sweetest thing? It’s like they’re a second family to each other.

And guess what? Paige’s bond with her co-star Douglas Wilson stayed strong even during the eight-year hiatus. “Douglas and I both live in NYC, so we were able to keep in touch pretty easily,” Paige shared. “Genevieve [Gorder] also lives in NYC, but she’s always jet-setting around the world, doing so many amazing things. It’s like trying to catch lightning in a bottle when it comes to seeing her!” Sounds like Genevieve’s got that globetrotting lifestyle down to a tee!
