HGTV Revives Battle on the Beach With New Mentors as Season 5 Debuts June 1

Alison Victoria says a 2025 podcast remark cost her the job.

Overview

  • HGTV set Battle on the Beach Season 5 to premiere June 1 at 9 p.m. ET.
  • The mentor lineup shifts, with Ty Pennington returning and Sarah Baeumler and Mika Kleinschmidt replacing Alison Victoria and Taniya Nayak.
  • Victoria says she was dropped after she told listeners in 2025 that the show was “canceled” rather than saying it was “not renewed.”
  • Ty Pennington said he did not view the series as canceled and described TV renewals as routine re-evaluations of what works.
  • Victoria remains on HGTV with other series, including a renewed Season 2 of Sin City Rehab along with Scariest House in America and Ugliest House in America.
