They sound like the couple to watch!
Rounding out the five teams are Sonny and Alicia, a married couple from Queensland, who Shelley thinks will be a slow burn.
“I think Sonny and Alicia will grow on people slowly. They’re very dry at the beginning, and it takes them a little while for their humour to kind of sink in, but ultimately, they’re a beautiful couple.”
This season will have Foreman Dan front and centre, as Foreman Keith steps back to focus on his health. And the dynamic between Dan and the teams sounds… a little tense.
“He’s very tough on them if he doesn’t think they’re pulling their weight, as is Scotty,” Shelley said.
“He says, ‘Sometimes their 110 per cent is like 60 per cent, so get on with the job. You’re not working as hard as you think you are!'”
With fresh faces, new rules and a stunning backdrop, The Block 2025 is set to deliver jaw-dropping design, and some delicious drama.
“Like any workplace or building site, there are always differing opinions,” Shelley teased.
“But ultimately, they are really good humans — they had a lot of fun, and we had a lot of fun.”
