The Block’s Brad Baker has broken his silence over the ‘flirtgate’ scandal that has rocked the show’s 20th season.
Brad and his wife, Kylie, saw their seven-year marriage implode on-air this week when the Cairns-based tradesman told fellow contestant Mimi Belperio he would ‘follow’ her OnlyFans account if she had one.
Kylie, who was resting nearby, heard the exchange and sensationally quit the show, briefly going home to Cairns before returning to the Phillip Island construction site to dump Brad on TV.
Despite the drama leaving their marriage ‘in tatters’, the couple appear to be still living together, with both seen leaving their Bentley Park home in Cairns on Wednesday.
Speaking to Daily Mail Australia, the father-of-four would not confirm the current status of his relationship with his wife, several months after the incident took place.
‘I obviously can’t say,’ he said.
‘I never said we’re together, or not.’
As the series draws to a close, the attention of the contestants is now turning to the all-important auctions taking place next Saturday.

However, Brad admitted he does not know whether he and Kylie will attend.
‘That’s something that I am still talking to my wife about, we don’t know what we’re doing,’ he said.
‘It’s not ruled out, I guess we will see.’
A friend of the couple previously told Daily Mail Australia Kylie has chosen to stand by her man.
‘Brad and Kylie are together and that is really all Australia needs to know,’ the friend insisted.
Despite the drama leaving their marriage ‘in tatters’ the pair are still together and are working on their relationship. Brad is seen getting coffee for his wife after school drop off on Wednesday
‘The Block shoot left their relationship in tatters and they had been preparing themselves for Australia to see what everyone has been whispering about.’
The pair were seen emerging from their modest far North Queensland home this week, with Brad doing the school drop-off before returning home with coffee for himself and Kylie.
Kylie’s distinctive green hair on the show has been dyed blonde as she left their marital home in a long, black pencil skirt and zebra print halter-neck top.
Evidence of the pair’s four children could be seen in the front yard, with a brightly-coloured toddler’s toy lying in the driveway.

During Wednesday night’s episode, Brad confessed to making the ‘inappropriate’ comments towards Mimi, who is married to Kristian on the show, over a drink while Kylie was within earshot.
Kylie then went on to admit the flirtation between Brad and Mimi had been so bad she believed the pair had secretly slept together behind the scenes.
Brad later said he believed his marriage was ‘done’ and he had ‘single-handedly destroyed my family’ with his actions, after Kylie suddenly abandoned the production.

‘If I gave up we’d leave with nothing so, whatever we get, even if its 10 grand, I’m taking f***ing half of what you get and then I’m leaving your a**e, you can keep your f***ing house, and I’m f**king off,’ Kylie sensationally said on Wednesday night

‘I don’t even know if I’m staying in Cairns to be honest, there’s nothing there for me anymore.
‘You treat your partner like this you can f***ing deal with it.’
She added: ‘My biggest problem is the entire time we’ve been together, and even when we were starting out, you have never flirted with me like that in our entire relationship so you can only imagine how that makes me feel.’
‘I’m sorry,’ Brad attempted, but Kylie cut in with: ‘Sorry doesn’t fix anything.’
