Glamour couple Elle Ferguson and Joel Patfull immediately rubbed their co-stars the wrong way on Sunday night during THe Block premiere. 

During their introduction packages, Bondi-based glamazon Elle, 38, described herself as a ‘global influencer’ while Joel spoke of his time as an AFL player. 

The couple – who quit the show just two days into filming – immediately irked other contestants with their glamorous lifestyle, including social worker Sarah Jane and her partner Tom.

Sarah Jane questioned the couple’s motives for joining a reality show, given that the ritzy pair don’t appear to need the prize money nor the extra fame. 

‘She’s already famous with 600,000 followers on Instagram,’ Sarah-Jane seethed. 

‘They’ve got a sh*tload of money. Why are you here?’ she added.

The social worker pulled no punches during her angry rant about Elle, who boasts her own makeup line. 

‘Some I respect, obviously. Some make a huge career from it. Look at your Kim Kardashian and Rozalia Russian. People like that. Bec Judd. Good on them,’ she said. 

‘But people who just go on shows to be social media [stars]. I don’t have time for that sh*t. Like go and get a real job mate,’ she added.

Earlier in the episode, Elle and Joel seemed optimistic about showing Australia the real Elle. 

‘I think people see this and think it’s all amazing,’ Elle said, pointing to herself. 

‘They’ve seen the photos of who I am but there’s so much more,’ she added.

Elle went on to take a tour of her designer wardrobe filled with high-end brands like Prada and Louis Vuitton. 

‘I think people will definitely put us into a box from our first image,’ Joel said. 

‘But I don’t think it will take long for us to break that down and make genuine connections.’

The couple quit The Block after Joel’s mother was ill. It is the first time a team has ever quit the Nine renovation show. 

A war of words has since erupted after the pair were accused of leaving the show due to it not being ‘on brand’ for them.
