What Happened to the Ginyard Family on Extreme Makeover?

Navigating the throes of domestic issues, Veronica Ginyard faced challenges at every corner. The mother-of-eight consistently struggled to provide the utmost comforts of life for her children. Despite having nine members in the household, the family lived in a humble two-bedroom home on Urn Street in Capitol Heights. Before the crew of ‘Extreme Makeover: Home Edition’ bludgeoned her roof to raise a new one, the Ginyard clan was living in a run-down property that was filled with exposed wires and a dilapidated interior. Not only did the untreated mold pose health concerns for the family, but the eight children found it hard to have their personal space.

In addition to facing problems in the household, Veronica also held emotional scars. After marrying at a young age, she became the victim of domestic abuse. For years, the mother-of-eight suffered mental, emotional, and physical challenges. However, the television personality ultimately walked away from her husband. Even so, the troubles remained aplenty. Nevertheless, she continued to work in order to provide for her children. After securing the only home she could afford, a neighbor helped Veronica submit an application to the reality television show. Consequently, a team of volunteers entered her humble abode and surprised her with the home of her dreams. Within a week, the 300 crew members bulldozed the two-bedroom home and gave way to a three-story, fully furnished house.

While the family vacationed in Walt Disney World, the ‘Extreme Makeover: Home Edition’ team revitalized the property in the hopes of helping Veronica Ginyard and her children experience the life they deserved. Not only this, Veronica was able to alleviate her monetary liabilities as well. The ABC team provided the family with a cheque to pay off the house’s mortgage. The family also received an SUV and a $100,000 cheque for the children’s college education. The surreal experience left Veronica in awe and astonishment. Naturally, people are curious to know how their lives have turned out decades later.

Where is the Ginyard Family Now?

Shortly after the family received a home makeover, Veronica decided to devote herself to its upkeep and maintenance. The television personality has remained committed to preserving the household’s design, furniture, and fixtures.

After establishing herself in community outreach and speaking engagements, Veronica decided to expand her horizons.

Shortly after, she started working as a Representative for AVON, a makeup brand. Based in Maryland, the loving grandmother is also a representative for Mary Kay.

Nevertheless, Veronica has continued to serve as an inspiration for many. She has also inspired her neighbors and loved ones to reinvent their households.
