As for their shared child, Mike and Jodi “entered a collaborative family law participation agreement.” Mike, while remaining quiet about his split with Jodi, has been vocal for his love for their shared daughter on social media. On Father’s Day in 2020, he shared a snap alongside Charlie and sweetly penned: “I cannot believe how fast she is sprouting up. I loving being a dad to my brown eyed baby girl.”

Mike’s small business Antique Archeology was forced to shut down for construction in recent weeks following the sudden loss of his good friend Frank. Mike is a proud owner of two antique shop locations called Antique Archeology which are located in both Le Claire, Iowa and Nashville, Tennessee. These two shops are brimming with remarkable finds from his run on Antique Pickers from vintage trinkets to a wide variety of motorcycles.
Speaking on the temporary shut down, the Antique Archeology’s official Instagram account wrote: “Our Nashville store is currently closed due to some construction issues! We will keep you updated on when we open back up. We are so sorry for the inconvenience and look forward to seeing y’all soon!”
