The Block's flirtgate scandal blows up as Kylie officially splits with Brad after his sleazy comments to Mimi

As a seasoned observer of human dynamics, I can’t help but feel a profound sense of empathy for Kylie and Brad, the couple whose tumultuous journey unfolded on The Block. Their story is a poignant reminder of the complexities that lie beneath the facade of seemingly perfect relationships.


During the broadcast of Wednesday evening’s episode, celebrity Kylie Baker announced her separation from her husband Brad, in response to his flirtatious remarks towards Mimi Belperio.

In a turn of events, the partnership between the two parents, who have four kids in common, began to crumble when the 32-year-old plumber suggested that he would subscribe to Mimi’s OnlyFans page if it existed.

Kylie dramatically left the show following a flirtatious interaction, then returned to Cairns before unexpectedly appearing on the Phillip Island construction site on Wednesday to end her relationship with her tradesman spouse on live television.

In simpler terms, ‘If we don’t push through, we’ll end up with nothing, so no matter what we gain, even if it’s $10,000, I’m taking half of it and then I’m leaving you behind. You can keep the house, I’ll be moving on.’ She expressed this rather forcefully on Wednesday night.

‘I don’t even know if I’m staying in Cairns to be honest there’s nothing there for me anymore.

She angrily went on, “If that’s how you act towards your partner, then you should be able to handle it,” as they, a couple married for seven years, engaged in a heated discussion audible to others.

She mentioned: ‘The most significant issue throughout our relationship, from the very beginning, is that you’ve never shown romantic interest towards me to the extent you did during those instances. So, you can easily understand the feelings it provokes within me.’

‘I’m sorry,’ Brad attempted, but Kylie cut in with: ‘Sorry doesn’t fix anything.’

Later, Kylie confessed that the alleged romantic involvement between Brad and Mimi on The Block was so intense that she felt convinced they had been engaging in a clandestine relationship off-screen.

‘Why are you talking to her about following her Only Fans?’ Kylie began.

When you mentioned, “I have to use the restroom…”, it crossed my mind that perhaps you all had come here for a different purpose, which was followed by an extended period of time spent within this space.

In my thoughts, it seems as if an event has transpired. The main point is that I had previously expressed my reservations regarding her feelings towards you.

As Brad could do nothing but listen to his wife slam him, Kyle then dealt the final blow. 

‘You’ve just completely gone with it and completely annihilated our entire relationship,’ she said.

Let me be clear: simply conversing with you doesn’t indicate that I’m in a good place. I want to make that absolutely clear. Our current situation – us not being together – is official, and we’re both single individuals now.

This week, Kylie dramatically decided to leave the show following an incident where she heard Brad make a comment about potentially following Mimi’s OnlyFans account during a playful conversation.

The unbroadcasted discussion took place when Brad and Mimi (Kristian’s spouse) had a chat over drinks in Brad’s home, with Kylie peacefully dozing nearby.

On Tuesday evening, Mimi publicly addressed the ‘flirtgate’ controversy on The Block, sharing her account of the situation with the production team and her husband, Kristian. She confessed that Brad’s remarks didn’t come across as flirtatious to her.

‘We were just chatting then Kylie went to sleep on the deck next to us,’ Mimi explained.

‘I stayed chatting and maybe there were some comments made that came across as flirty.

In a straightforward manner, I can say: “I found myself at ease during that moment. As far as I’m aware, it was when Kylie awoke, then headed back to bed; I believe this is when things began to unfold, which prompted me to depart.

Mimi expressed that the entire circumstance was regrettable, and it was far from her intention for Kylie to depart from the program.

Kristian was also quick to defend his wife, saying that she had done nothing wrong.

‘I don’t think Mimi should have any regrets about going out and having a good time,’ Kristian said.

It’s approaching the point where we must part ways, so she wishes to savor the wonderful company of the people and friends we’ve made along the way.

On Thursday of last week, Mimi and Kristian shared with Daily Mail Australia that although some flirting had taken place, they have moved past their infidelity issues.

In another context, Brad expressed his regret for hurting Kylie, his partner and mother of their four kids, and voiced his wish to remain a family despite her decision to leave the program.

It appears that, following a heartfelt discussion with her mother about a flirtatious exchange, Kylie returned to Cairns to spend time with her kids.

On the show, Brad expressed his feelings for Kylie by saying, “Kylie is incredibly kind and generous, contrary to what some might believe.

“She’s incredibly motivated, and her lifelong ambition has been to participate in The Block. Every year she attempted, and ultimately, we joined so that we could lay a solid foundation for our family. I fervently hope that our family remains intact.

The events unfolded on Monday, as Mimi and Brad found themselves in a conversation over drinks at his place, with Kylie peacefully sleeping close by. Brad confessed that his words went too far.

He admitted that he made some inappropriate remarks. At the time, he was trying to flirt with Mimi. Unfortunately, Kylie heard those comments and, given the situation, it’s no wonder she feels upset about it.

In a subsequent call with her mom, Kylie openly shared the details of the surprising discussion that transpired between her spouse and Mimi.

She expressed to her mother that he’s been flirting excessively and speaking disrespectfully on multiple occasions, saying something like, “How much more chances is he getting from me?” or “I’ve given him so many opportunities already, again and again.

Kylie then revealed one of the devastating comments her husband made during the flirty exchange.

It was overheard that the electrician and plumber, supposedly, expressed to Mimi, while she was pretending to sleep, something like “I’d definitely subscribe to your OnlyFans.

Additionally, she asserted that Brad had been complaining about her during their talk, and insisted that similar incidents had occurred previously.

Straightaway, Kylie exited the stage, and the following day, Scott announced that she was leaving the construction site; since then, she hasn’t made an appearance.

At exactly 2:34 PM that day, Kylie left her car behind, clutching only her purse. It seemed plausible to Brad that Kylie might have headed back to Cairns to spend time with their kids.

The recording on the phone provided by Kylie appeared to validate his hypothesis, as she confessed that her marriage was experiencing significant issues.

She stated that she was leaving, as she found herself in a difficult situation with her marriage unraveling, making it impossible for her to appear on national television. Consequently, she is heading back home and cannot promise a return at this time.

Kylie said, “Discuss the specifics with Brad, but I’m no longer able to do that myself. I appreciate the chance, and I apologize for having to leave before we finish, as I simply don’t have the strength left.

Speaking with producers later, Brad admitted he believed his marriage was ‘done’.

In a straightforward manner, Brad expressed: ‘I feel ashamed and regretful for the consequences of my decisions affecting others. I value her, as well as her children and family deeply, yet unfortunately, I’ve caused harm. Regrettably, it happened despite my intentions to avoid doing so. However, I see no solution or improvement ahead – the damage is done.’

‘I’d very much say that I’ve just single-handedly destroyed my family.’

It appears that Brad and Kylie have not yet parted ways, as they are reportedly focusing on rebuilding their relationship.

According to a source from the television industry, Kylie and Brad have been putting in several months’ effort towards rebuilding their marriage.

The Block’s breakup left their bond shattered, and they were both mentally readying themselves for the Australian public to learn the secret gossip surrounding them.
