The Block has been rocked by theories that the ‘flirtgate’ scandal on the show was staged amid a slew of very telling clues.

And further evidence emerged on Tuesday which seemed to prove that things aren’t as frosty between the show’s controversial stars as it appeared on screen.

Photographs taken at the Melbourne Cup at Flemington Racecourse showed couple Kylie and Brad Baker posing alongside Mimi Belperio despite the flirting drama.

A playful video of Kylie with The Block bidder Adrian Portelli inside the G.H. Mumm marquee has also sparked theories their friendliness could be hinting at the winner of the 2024 show.

The latest clues come after Kylie and Brad were seen rubbing shoulders with Channel Nine producer Julian Cress despite a supposed falling out with the network.

The drama first kicked off when Brad told fellow contestant Mimi – who is married to Kristian – that he would follow her OnlyFans account if she had one in a flirty chat.

The controversial conversation came as Brad and Mimi shared a drink at his house while Kylie napped beside them and kicked off the now-infamous ‘flirtgate’ scandal.

Kylie then sensationally stormed off set and threatened to ‘break the f**king camera’ if the crew kept filming in a dramatic exit.

While Sunday’s tense scenes showed things as being very frosty on The Block, an entirely different picture was painted at Tuesday’s event.

Despite storming off the show, Kylie and Brad were seen flashing huge grins as they posed alongside their The Block co-stars at the races, including Mimi and Kristian.

The two couples appeared to be on very good terms as they stood directly beside one another in the group photograph, flashing huge grins.

The upset from the dramatic ‘flirtgate’ scandal appeared to be non-existent as the two married couples rubbed shoulders during the fun-filled day out.

Fans were quick to take to the comments section to point out how friendly the couples seemed with one another following the huge on-screen upset.

One wrote: ‘Wow so good to see Kylie n Brad,’ while another said: ‘Kylie and Brad are there too – that’s good.’

A third commented: ‘Great to see all the teams back together,’ and a fifth remarked: ‘Glad to see Kylie and Brad back in the mix!’

Elsewhere at the Melbourne Cup, Kylie was also seen putting on a very friendly display with The Block’s controversial bidder Adrian.

In a video shared to his Instagram Stories, Adrian was seen smiling and laughing with all The Block contestants before tapping Kylie on the back to get her attention.

She then turned around and flashed a huge smile before flipping the bird in a playful gesture which sent Adrian into hysterics.

Adrian is well-known for attending The Block’s annual auctions when the contestants’ homes go up for sale, and has put in some impressive bids over the years.

And his playful appearance alongside Kylie has sparked speculation that he could be hinting she and her husband are set to win the 2024 program.

Kylie and her husband Brad were also seen avidly chatting to The Block’s co-creator and executive producer Julian Cress at the Melbourne Cup.

They are said to have had a massive falling out with Channel Nine following the show’s ‘flirtgate’ scandal, but the latest pictures have proved they are on good terms.

Kylie and Brad, who are still together after the ‘flirtgate’ drama, were seen smiling and laughing with Julian, proving things are now not as strained as shown on screen.

Despite Kylie’s vow to boycott auction day, sources also claimed the duo would consider returning for the sale if the reserve was for the right price.

Kylie and Brad were embroiled in scenes on The Block which seemed to show strained relationships between them and the production team.

On Sunday, Kylie’s journey on the show came to an explosive end when she spectacularly clashed with the show’s judges, host Scott Cam, and even her own team of tradies.

In a dramatic lead-up to the final round of judging, tensions reached boiling point when Kylie ordered her team to stop work just hours before the last reveal.

‘F**king leave it, all of you. I want everyone gone, I’m not kidding,’ she instructed, before telling Brad to ‘get them OUT. GET. THEM. OUT. Tell them to leave! I don’t want their help.’

Brad, left with no choice, then relayed her orders to their stunned tradies, who reluctantly packed up and left.

The following day, as host Scott Cam called ‘tools down’ for the final time, Kylie was noticeably absent from the celebration.
