The Block 2024 has been hit by more drama.
While the season of the Channel Nine show is yet to air, photos from a promotional shoot have all but confirmed Team Blue, Jesse and Paige, have already left.
A source has told Yahoo Lifestyle that producers were left blindsided by the exit.
‘The production crew had noted there had been more tears with Jesse and Paige… but the ‘welfare team’ felt that their behaviour was pretty standard with every season up until this point,’ they revealed.
‘None of the other teams had noticed anything too unusual and everyone was left gobsmacked when the Western Australian team fled Phillip Island,’ the insider added.

However, the insider also revealed that the new members of the Blue Team, Maddie and Charlotte, were unimpressed with the progress made on their assigned house.
This led to further drama, forcing them to decide whether to stick with the old team’s seaside escape theme or to start over.
‘Maddie and Charlotte are hoping they will be allowed to re-do the rooms that now look out of place but a decision on how that might happen is still unconfirmed,’ the insider said.Â

‘No one has been able to confirm what the hell is going to happen with these two themes clashing and in all honesty something will need to be done if this house has a hope in hell of winning.’
Earlier this month, the Channel Nine reality show was rocked by the rumours that a team had already walked off the job two weeks into filming.
And behind-the-scenes pictures from a cast photoshoot at Phillip Island on April 8th certainly suggest this is true, as the Blue team – consisting of an athletic male and glamorous blonde woman – are nowhere in sight.Â

The lively pictures show the newly-added Pink team consists of two stunning young women in their late 20s – a blonde and a brunette.
The beloved renovation series is set to make a triumphant return to TV screens later this year, marking two decades since its initial premiere.
Nine has confirmed that only five teams will be competing to convert five properties on the former Island Cove Villas on Phillip Island.
Daily Mail Australia can reveal a Channel Nine-owned company purchased Island Cove Villas for a whopping $9.5million.
This led to further drama, forcing them to decide whether to stick with the old team’s seaside escape theme or to start over
