Kylie and Brad Baker, proud parents of four kids, are more than ready to win The Block 2024!
Despite not having much experience when it comes to home renovations, apart from a kid’s bedroom makeover that didn’t go the way it was intended, this couple is ready to take on the challenge.
“I will have a go at everything. I can handle a hammer and a drill and I’m not afraid to use it,” Kylie said.
Kylie is strong-willed and determined while Brad is described as a hard worker, making them the absolute dream team on this season of The Block. “I don’t think Kylie has had more than three days off from the kids,” Brad said.
“I used to just take them to work,” Kylie added. “It’s hard to juggle, but it’s possible.”
WHO ARE KYLIE AND BRAD?
Kylie is a 37-year-old hairdresser and wholesale supply business owner, selling hair products with her mother. “I’ve been a hairdresser for 20 years, but I want to step back and focus more on the wholesale business in the future,” she said.
With her signature green hair, her strong and feisty persona, and no problem saying what she thinks, Kylie found herself as a favourite with the Phillip Island locals while filming for The Block.
As for Brad, he is a 32-year-old electrician and plumber – the two of them reside in Cairns, Queensland, with their children and adorable border collie. He runs his own successful business in Cairns, with his interest particularly residing in the technical side of lighting… this could definitely put these two at an advantage!
Though life is busy for these parents, The Block is something they have been dreaming about for ages, and now, they finally have their shot to give it all they have.
“I guess it’s something we have always watched, and thought we could do it, so why not give it a crack?” Brad said.
WHAT TEAM ARE KYLIE AND BRAD ON?
Kylie and Brad are on the Green Team.
HOW LONG HAVE KYLIE AND BRAD BEEN TOGETHER?
Kylie and Brad have been married for seven years and met just two years before that. They have four kids together, Parker, 9, Bentleigh, 6, Steele, 4, and Slade, one… you can imagine how hard it must have been to be away from their kids.
In an interview with Domain, Brad revealed that being away from their time on The Block was “a lot harder than [they] thought it was going to be.”
HOW DID KYLIE AND BRAD MEET?
Kylie and Brad lived across the street from each other when they first met. Kylie was breeding German shepherds at the time and Brad had gone over and visited.
