The Block<\/a> 2024 star Kylie Baker<\/a> has seemingly announced the birth of her fifth child.<\/p>\n

The former Blockhead, who appeared on the show\u2019s Phillip Island season with husband Brad Baker<\/a>, posted a sweet black-and-white photo holding the hand of a newborn, captioned: \u201cOne week with you.\u201d<\/p>\n

She hashtagged the post with \u201c#littlestlove\u201d.<\/p>\n

Kylie did not share any further details of the baby\u2019s name or gender, but the fifth child joins siblings Parker, Bentley, Steele and Slade.<\/p>\n

Former Block castmate Paige Beechley<\/a>, who recently welcomed her first child with husband Jesse Maguire<\/a>, liked Kylie\u2019s post, which also received a flurry of congratulations from her followers.<\/p>\n

The announcement came as a surprise to many, with Kylie opting to keep most of her pregnancy offline.<\/p>\n

She initially confused everyone with an announcement posted on April 1, leading many to question if it was an April Fools\u2019 Day joke.<\/p>\n

At the time, she shared footage as she posed covered in black paint while cradling her bump.<\/p>\n

\u201c#borntoraisehell,\u201d Kylie captioned her post, along with a coy \u201cshh\u201d emoji.<\/p>\n

Kylie did not tag or mention Brad in either announcement. She had previously removed his name from her Instagram bio last year, amid speculation that the pair had parted ways after The Block.<\/p>\n

Kylie’s initial announcement was posted on April Fools’ – leading her followers to wonder if it was real.\u00a0Instagram\/@____kyliebaker____<\/p>\n

They had a famously rocky experience<\/a> during the series, where they initially ruffled feathers with their all-black style<\/a> choices.<\/p>\n

Kylie then left the show early\u00a0after Brad admitted to flirting with another Blockhead, Mimi, during a late-night get-together.<\/p>\n

Kylie did not take part in the season\u2019s final Clubhouse Week<\/a> of building, but returned for the auction.<\/p>\n

She and Brad walked away with an incredible $650,000 profit, and told nine.com.au at the time that the money was worth all the hardship<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think we\u2019re definitely stronger after it. To walk away with something and it be worth it, 100 per cent,\u201d Brad said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Block 2024 star Kylie Baker has seemingly announced the birth of her fifth child.
