Not only is The Block<\/a>\u00a0an incredibly physical challenge, with the teams building an entire house in just 12 weeks, but it\u2019s also known for taking an emotional toll<\/a> on contestants. Between the long hours, minimal sleep, and the competitive nature amongst the cast<\/a>, participants are often more than happy to return to their normal lives once the cameras stop rolling.<\/p>\n

With the finish line<\/a> now in sight, police officers Britt and Taz<\/a> have been counting down the days until they can fly back to their home in Newman, WA, and reunite with their two kids. The fan favourites tell Yahoo Lifestyle that at this point in the competition, it was incredibly \u201ctough\u201d being away from home.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was just sickening,\u201d Britt remarks. \u201cI think for us, with what we do for work, we appear very resilient on the outside, but we are human. We do feel things, and we are emotional, but we\u2019re trying to keep it together.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe’ll go to jobs in real life where we want to burst out into tears, but we have to hold it together for everyone involved. And that was like us [on The Block]. Any second we could burst out into tears, we were just that upset, missing the kids, but we tried to hold it together.\u201d<\/p>\n

The couple add that while they \u201cdeal with stressful, life-threatening situations every single day\u201d in their field of work, they struggled filming the reality show.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe thought The Block was really, really hard, and that’s saying something,\u201d Britt shares. \u201cWe’re like little ducks \u2014 we\u2019re cool, calm, and collected on the surface because of what we do for work, we’ve built up that resilience, but below the surface, we’re stressed as hell.\u201d<\/p>\n

How The Block impacted Britt and Taz\u2019s relationship<\/p>\n

While The Block is known for putting couples\u2019 relationships to the test, with Han and Can<\/a> and Sonny and Alicia<\/a> often clashing with one another, Britt and Taz admit that the experience made them \u201cstronger\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cPre-Block, I was that sort of person who used to maybe hold a bit of a grudge,\u201d Britt says with a laugh. \u201cTaz and I would have an argument, and I’d be like, \u2018Talk to me in two to three business days\u2019.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut we went on The Block and I was like, I can’t be like that, because The Block moves so fast, and we’ve got to make so many decisions every single day, and we have to be communicating properly every single day. So I learned that I could drop it really, really quickly, and I have continued that post-The Block.\u201d<\/p>\n

‘We’re on the same page’<\/p>\n

Taz adds that, unlike their fiery co-stars, he and Britt \u201cdid not have one argument\u201d throughout their 12 weeks filming in Daylesford.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe had disagreements sometimes, but at the end of the day, we’re on the same page. We definitely wouldn’t go to each other and have shots at each other just because we were angry,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n

SHOP:<\/p>\n

\u201cWe just treated each other with kindness, knowing you’re both going through it,\u201d Britt shares. \u201cSo there’s no point being angry at him because you’re stressed. You\u2019re both feeling it, so just work together as a team to get it done.\u201d<\/p>\n
