Q&A! Chelsea Houska Answers Fan Questions About Filming Her New Show ‘Farmhouse Fabulous!’

Chelsea (Houska) and Cole DeBoer are halfway through filming their first season of ‘Farmhouse Fabulous’ for HGTV after permanently leaving ‘Teen Mom 2’ in 2021. In a Q&A session Chelsea shared to her Instagram stories, the couple answer fan questions about what it’s been like to film for a new show on a different network.

“This world is completely different than the world I was in before and filming before,” Chelsea stated and asked fans if they had any questions about the new show.

Q: Is it true that you have to stick to a dress code to an extent?
A: You can’t wear logos or brands or really busy patterns. Stick to basics! -Chelsea
Q: How authentic do you and Cole get to be? Do you have to filter/tone down your language or anything?
A: We are definitely authentic, and we can show our personality, but we do have to tone it down a little bit on the swearing otherwise it would be like beep beep beep beep. -Chelsea
Q: I bet Cole feels more at home with the HGTV new show after all the years of TM taping.
A: You have no idea, it’s like a night and day different for me. I’m thoroughly enjoying this, and I actually feel comfortable. -Cole

Chelsea goes on to explain their new filming schedule and how big of a difference it is from working with MTV.

Q: Do you feel like the filming schedule is completely different than Teen Mom 2?
A: The schedule is one of the biggest differences between the two. We film a lot of long days but only a couple months instead of all year nonstop. -Chelsea
Q: How many hours a day/week do you film now?
A: 5 to 6 days a week, sometimes 10+ hours, some are less. -Chelsea

Over the past year there have been a lot of questions from fans about why Chelsea and Cole would leave ‘Teen Mom’ only to have their kids featured on a different show. Part of the reason the couple moved on from MTV was to give their kids more privacy.

Q: Who helps with the kids while you film?
A: Since we are filming full time, Walker had to join daycare for a few months until we are done. The other 3 are in school and afterschool programs. Takes a village! -Chelsea
Q: Wait, so the kids are not in it?
A: The kids are on the show, they make appearances. It’s just different than teen mom where it’s not like diving into their life. -Chelsea
Q: Are you and Aubree super close?
A: Yes. -Aubree
