The Block will lose another of their teams in the coming weeks as the pressure cooker reality show threatens to break-up a second unhappy couple.
Daily Mail Australia can reveal that Kylie and Brad Baker will make an abrupt exit on the Channel Nine series.
The news comes just weeks after it was confirmed Jesse Maguire and Paige Beechey from the Blue Team will throw down their shovels in week five and walk off-site for good.
‘Kylie had an absolute meltdown at the end of week 12 and stormed off the set,’ spilled an insider from the production team.
‘She flat-out refused to continue filming, and the pair didn’t even show up to finish their communal space in week 13.
‘I’ve got no clue how the producers are going to handle this on screen or how they’ll edit around it,’ they continued.
It comes after another insider dished that some of the fights between Kylie and Brad were ‘a tad cringe’ and ‘immature’, with their attitudes towards one another raising alarms.
‘Kylie and Brad are going to find watching the show back quite uncomfortable – as they really have a unique way of speaking to each other,’ the source said.

The on-set insider continued: ‘The Block really shows the dirt under the fingernails when it comes to the dynamics between these new contestants.
‘It’s fly-on the-wall television at its best watching the latest bunch navigate the trials and tribulations of building a house over 12 weeks.
‘Like Married at First Sight, the tension between each couple is compelling and it’s the most engaging when the couples are at odds with each other.
‘There are plenty of good moments but it’s the contrast of comparing everyone’s relationships that makes this show fascinating.’

It’s not the first time contestants have quit the ‘brutal’ reality TV show, but it is the first time they’ve thrown in the towel so late into construction.
Daily Mail Australia previously reported in April that Jesse and Paige will be replaced on-site by sisters from New South Wales.
Maddy and Charlotte were said to have received only 24 hours notice to accept The Block offer and finish the build Jesse and Paige started.
The Block continues on Tuesday at 7.30pm on Channel Nine.
