Shameless Tanya Guccione says it was ‘a THRILL’ cheating on The Block then lying about it for weeks – but insists she and Vito still deserve their profits


Tanya Guccione finally admitted to cheating during Sunday’s season finale of The Block, telling producers she had in fact taken a photo of the production schedule after denying it for weeks.

And the makeup artist has now confessed it was a ‘thrill’ lying to the other teams throughout the season.

‘I think that it was the thrill of it… I’m a mum, a 40-year-old woman, but there is still a little bit of rebel inside of me,’ she told Woman’s Day.

Tanya went on to say she had ‘a strong desire for so long’ to come clean, but feared she would be disqualified.

She also confessed that her husband Vito ‘really struggled’ with the deception, but that didn’t deter her.

‘He’s never been one to lie or cheat. He was the one that said, “Delete that straight away, you idiot. We’ve got kids,”‘ she said. 

Tanya also insisted she and Vito deserved their profits because they’d ‘worked just as hard as everyone else’.

It comes after Tanya broke down and finally took responsibility for taking the photo during Sunday night’s finale.

‘What I want to say is that I am obviously taking full responsibility for this situation and I am sorry, I am truly sorry. Yes, I did. I took the photograph,’ she said tearfully.

She added: ‘I am not a stupid woman but I did a stupid thing. We take responsibility for what happened and where it ended up after that was obviously out of my power, but I started it.’

Tanya and Vito found themselves at the centre of a cheating scandal early in the season after Tanya obtained a photo of the show’s production schedule on a whiteboard, and shared it with Luke and Josh.

Anyone who saw the photo would have the advantage of being able to plan their specifications weeks in advance or pre-order something for a specific room.

The Gucciones and the Packham twins were each docked two points for a room reveal after the scandal was exposed.
