“Sara and Hayden have basically only been allowed out to see Harlow once a week, for just a few hours at a time,” confides a family friend. “And it has had a big impact on them, particularly Sara, who missed her little girl desperately.
“Harlow’s been hitting language milestones and her mum and dad haven’t been there to hear them, which is heartbreaking. But she’s got to learn one word very well – ‘goodbye’ – and she doesn’t like hearing it one little bit.”
“She’s our only daughter and we’ve never spent that much time apart,” Sara has said on the Today program. “I felt like I was neglecting her at one of the most pivotal moments of her life.”
With Season 14 of the popular renovation show behind them, Sara and Hayden, who’ve been together for four years, are going full steam ahead towards their next project: a baby sister or brother for Harlow. The couples’ baby-making plans were put on hold the day they found out they’d been accepted to go on The Block. But now, there’s nothing holding them back.
The couple have announced they are already expecting their second child.
On the Season 14 finale, the couple also participated in a "womb reveal."
The couple excitedly shared they are expecting a baby boy!
Now, Hayden, a construction manager, is planning a large renovation at their Stanwell Park property, one hour south of Sydney, but first they need time to recover from the stresses of The Block.
