The Block’s Kylie and Brad Baker are once again at the centre of speculation about the state of their marriage.
Brad took to Instagram this week to share a rare family photo – and it did little to quell rumours of a split.
Brad, 32, was seen smiling with their four children – Parker, nine, Bentley, six, Steele, four, and Slade, one – as they posed in helmets during a day out at a go-kart track.
‘It’s not Phillip Island for kart track @phillipislandgokarts Great start to school holidays @makotrac,’ he captioned the post.
Kylie, 37, was nowhere to be seen – and the couple haven’t shared photos of one another since their time on the show.
Instead, the Cairns-based mum-of-four has been filling her Instagram feed with racy selfies and sultry videos, sending her 9,000 followers into a frenzy.
The Block’s Kylie and Brad Baker are once again at the centre of speculation about the state of their marriage
The couple, who saw their relationship implode on the hit renovation series last year during the infamous ‘flirtgate’ scandal, took to Instagram this week to share a rare family photo – but it did little to quieten talk of a split
It comes after Kylie also sparked split rumours in November when she quietly removed Brad’s name from her Instagram bio, leaving only their children’s names alongside her location.
The move followed her decision to upload a raunchy clip of herself in black lingerie, complete with hashtags like #toxic and #bored.
Fans were quick to notice Brad was absent, although he later commented ‘No one hotter’ on the post – only for a follower to snipe back: ‘Except Mimi,’ in reference to his infamous ‘flirtgate’ exchange with co-star Mimi Belperio during the couple’s time on The Block in 2024.
Kylie famously stormed off set during filming after Brad admitted to making ‘inappropriate’ comments about Mimi, vowing never to return.
While the pair later reunited for the finale auction, insiders say their marriage has been on rocky ground ever since.
Brad later said he believed his marriage was ‘done’ and that he had ‘single-handedly destroyed my family’ with his actions, after Kylie suddenly abandoned production.
A devastated Kylie seemingly flew home to Cairns to be with her and Brad’s four kids after revealing how her husband had told Mimi he would ‘follow her OnlyFans’.
She was particularly upset as she felt abandoned by her co-stars and questioned why they didn’t support her during the difficult time.
Despite the drama leaving their marriage ‘in tatters’, last year Daily Mail was informed Brad and Kylie were still together and working on their relationship.
‘Kylie and Brad have been spending months working on their marriage,’ a TV insider exclusively confirmed.
‘The Block shoot left their relationship in tatters and they had been preparing themselves for Australia to see what everyone has been whispering about.’
‘A lot of water has gone under the bridge and Kylie has chosen to stand by her man,’ a friend continued.
‘Brad and Kylie are together and that is really all Australia needs to know.’
A source close to Kylie claimed Brad had been caught doing ‘disrespectful behaviour’ before, but said Kylie doesn’t have to share her reasons for forgiving him.
