TV star Baz Ashmawy has revealed he is back living with his mother, Nancy.

The 50 Ways To Kill Your Mammy star moved back in with his popular mother last August with his fiancée Tanja and two of their children.

The star has moved out of their Dublin home, with Baz revealing they are gutting their family home and renovating it to make it ‘work’ better for them now that their family is older.

He told EVOKE: ‘I’ve been out of my house since August last year and I’m living in Nancy’s house.

‘We’re doing a big renovation on the house. I was sharing a room with my 13-year-old. That has now been traded off with my mum,’ he said laughing.

‘It’s us with two of the kids and then my mum has moved back to the Canaries. She goes back and forth. We’re just in that zone of everyone wanting to get away with each other.’

Baz was speaking ahead of new research from The Panelling Centre, which reveals over half (56%) of 18-29-year-old homeowners have avoided hosting guests because of their kitchen, compared to just 20% of over-62s.

The new study highlights how kitchen priorities shift across generations, from Generation Z (Zoomer) homeowners, 18-29-year-olds, to Boomers, 62-80-year-olds.

Older homeowners are focusing on longevity and usability, while younger groups are more influenced by trends, social media, and the pressure to create ‘host-worthy’ spaces.  

Baz is currently designing his own kitchen and said it has been ‘pain free’ so far.

‘Doing the kitchen was the easiest bit. It’s been pain free, quite enjoyable experience of the whole lot.

‘Because we’re doing a renovation, we know what we want and what we didn’t want.

‘We had a big counter in our kitchen before and the first thing we said was we didn’t want another counter.  We just want a free nice spacious kitchen that if you are cooking and if anyone is hanging around, they can hang around the other side of the room.’

But speaking about the renovation he said he won’t ever go through it again.

‘We meant to do it before Covid and then we didn’t. Then Covid came. Your family gets a bit bigger and older and your needs change.

‘It was about making the house work a bit better and what suited us. It was built for when they were kids and now that’s passed.

‘So now we have adults coming in and out and their friends, so it’s just different and we felt like we needed the change so we decided to do it. But god, it is so stressful.’
