‘Neale is an old friend of mine,’ Darren spills to New Idea.
‘He actually helped me all the way through my career. We’ve got a really long back story.’
‘The first project I ever did he put in Belle magazine [which Neale formerly edited]. He singled me out as a “mood maker” two years into my career, and then when I did [TV show] homeMade as a contestant, he was the judge.’
Ever since joining Neale on The Block, their friendship has only blossomed.
‘[Neale] wrote the foreword for my book,’ he says. ‘He’s a good friend and he’s always had my back.’
The Block airs Monday to Wednesday, 7.30pm, and Sunday, 7pm, Channel Nine.
