Inside Scott Cam’s very down-to-earth rural celebrations as The Block host rings in his 62nd birthday
As a seasoned observer of the Australian entertainment scene, I must say that the ongoing speculation surrounding Scott Cam’s retirement from The Block is reminiscent of a game of cat and mouse – or perhaps more accurately, a game of rumor and reality TV!
Scott Cam rang in his 62nd birthday in style this weekend.
On Sunday, the host of The Block took some time off to celebrate their special day with loved ones in a peaceful, country-side environment, surrounded by family and friends.
Through a set of Instagram posts, the television figure was seen cruising around the wilderness on ATVs accompanied by dear ones.
Further images showed a classic Aussie BBQ loaded up with bacon for an al fresco breakfast.
Additionally, Scott relaxed within an apparent trailer, sipping beers, while maintaining the casual atmosphere of his ongoing celebration.
He showed off the stunning setting, which included a small waterway and tree lined hills.
Sitting outside as he partook in a beer and a barbie, the TV star looked very relaxed indeed.
‘Had a beautiful birthday weekend with all my family In the bush’ he explained in his caption.
Following news that Scott has decided to bid farewell to his carpentry tools and retire as the host of The Block after a 14-year tenure.
The TV show host, who replaced Jamie Durie in 2010 during the third season, reportedly feels irritated by the contestants in more recent times.
According to Woman’s Day, Scott has decided to retire at the end of 2025, but Nine claims this information is inaccurate.
A source inside the production claims that during filming for season 20, Scott mentioned he intended to retire, stating he would only continue with the show for “this coming year and the one following.
When Jesse Maguire and Paige Beechey left the show abruptly during the current season, it took him by surprise and only increased his resolve to depart in 2025, as they mentioned.
Scott values The Block deeply, and he finds it hard to fathom why someone would part ways with their successful series and make such an emotionally charged choice.
‘It reinforced to him the idea of leaving on a high next year to spend more time with his family.’
In 2023, there were whispers that Scott was planning to retire, much like the current situation. However, these rumors were effectively put to rest when Nine secured his services with a fresh contract.
Instead, it’s reported that the agreement pertains to a span of just two years, securing Scott’s position as host for both the 2024 20th anniversary season and the 2025 Daylesford season.
As reported by our source, the departure of Scott from the renovation show was carefully orchestrated as part of an ambitious strategy, involving two distinct and tough seasons that would ensure he exits at the peak of his success.
Initially planned to shoot in Daylesford this year, the production of The Block encountered delays due to difficulties in obtaining necessary permits from the council, causing the renovation to be rescheduled for next year instead.
At the eleventh hour, manufacturers hastily acquired a rundown resort situated on Philip Island, investing a massive $9.5 million in the Island Cove Villas.
The source revealed that Scott felt deeply disheartened when Daylesford was postponed, as his desire was to organize that particular season and subsequently depart with grace.
Yet again, Nine has quelled the speculation, stating clearly to Daily Mail Australia on Monday that Scott Cam has no intention of resigning from The Block.
Last year, Scott, the host of the popular renovation show on Nine, spoke with Daily Mail Australia about rumors that he was planning to retire.
At a kickoff event for the 2023 season of his television program, the former construction worker-turned-TV personality shared with the audience that he intends to remain involved for an extended period.
2 months back, I sealed a long-term contract with the Nine Network. Making this choice felt effortless because I have a deep affection for this show and couldn’t imagine being part of any other one.
Afterwards, Scott mentioned that for now he wasn’t planning on retiring, but when that time eventually arrived far into the future, there was someone ideal whom he had in mind to assume the role of host instead.
He believes that only Shelley Craft, his current co-host, has the ability to accomplish this task, and he’s correct about that.
As I stand here at the age of 48, I firmly believe that no one else could step up and lead quite like me once the right moment arrives.
‘That’s my job, isn’t it? Don’t I step up and then I get a sidekick?’ she joked.
2022 saw Scott once more addressing rumors concerning his continued involvement in the show. He shared with Daily Mail Australia that he plans to spend many more years working at construction sites.
For over four decades, this skilled craftsman has honed his trade, and for the last 14 years, he’s been the beloved host of “The Block” television show. It appears he shows no signs of slowing down anytime soon.
He mentioned that this is his 60th year, and he’s in great physical shape. Currently, he’s working on renovating his house due to mold caused by excessive rain,” he shared with Daily Mail Australia previously.
‘For the next ten years or more, I plan to keep working. Recently, I shared with my wife that we likely have another twenty years of good health ahead. So, starting from January 1st, let’s embark on a twenty-year journey of enjoying life together.’
I’m determined to continue as long as I have the strength, for I have a deep passion for what I do. I believe I can work for another twenty years with these tools, and I’ll retire when my body signals it’s time.
