Footage showing The Block contestants Maddy and Charlotte discussing their history of renovating houses has outraged their fellow competitors.
The video shows the pair admitting to flipping houses, despite telling their fellow Blockheads they’re accountants.
Speaking to TV Week, several of the contestants have now unleashed on their co-stars while admitting they feel betrayed.
‘They flat out lied! They told us they were accountants – they didn’t mention they’d flipped houses,’ Haydn said.
‘They asked for advice on how to do things within a build, yet they obviously knew it all.’
Haydn’s wife Chelsea discovered the video of Maddy and Charlotte on Google, and his Blockhead partner Ricky also felt the Sydney sisters had an unfair advantage.
‘Me and H have never flipped a house together. It takes weeks to get to know each other’s strengths when it comes to renovating,’ the plumber, 34, said.
Despite the backlash, the sisters were defiant in their choice not to disclose their past experience.

‘We never lied. If the others had asked about our experience, we would have shared it, but they never did. It’s not on us to tell them the nitty-gritty,’ said Maddy, 25.
It comes after builder Zak quit the show and walked off site after a heated row with Maddy and Charlotte.
The sisters from Sydney flew down at the last minute to take over Paige and Jesse Maguire’s House One after they made a shock exit from the show last week.
But things quickly went south for Maddy and Charlotte, 22, as they failed to see eye to eye with the builder handpicked by their predecessors.
Things had been heated between the two parties since the sisters arrived, as they told host Scott Cam they found Zak ‘intimidating’ to deal with.

The carpenter promptly blew up at them with accusations they were ‘s**t-canning’ him on TV and designing the house behind his back with their own builder Jack.
‘I’m trying to have direct conversations with you and you just turn and talk to Nathan. It’s quite rude,’ he told Charlotte who quickly became tearful.
When he claimed he was only being ‘blunt and straight to the point’, Maddy tried to make him understand he gave off a negative impression.
‘I’m sorry you can’t handle my tone,’ he then told Charlotte who didn’t accept the non-apology, prompting Zak to quit the show.
‘We’re going to be out of here. This team dynamic isn’t going to work, sorry guys.’ he said, before telling his team to ‘pack it up’ and leave the site.
However, the sisters were defiant in their choice not to disclose their past experience. ‘We never lied. If the others had asked about our experience, we would have shared it!’ Maddy said
