Popular TV star says what EVERYONE is thinking about The Block stars Brad and Mimi’s on-set ‘flirtgate’ scandal

Meshel Laurie has spoken out about The Block stars Brad Baker and Mimi Belperio’s shocking ‘flirtgate’ scandal.

The comedian, 51, took to Instagram on Monday night to respond to bombshell scenes during the renovation show in which Brad admitted to ‘flirting’ with his co-star Mimi.

Brad’s wife Kylie suddenly quit the production after hearing her husband make “inappropriate” comments to Mimi, who is married to fellow contestant Kristian.

Now, the former star of The Project Meshel has voiced what everyone is thinking amid the scandal as she shared her condolences for Brad’s devastated wife Kylie.

She admitted she hadn’t been a fan of the mum-of-four throughout the series, but now feels like a ‘complete b***h’ for pre-judging her without knowing the full story.

“If I’ve learned anything about relationships, it’s that no one knows what’s really going on except the people involved,” she shared in a candid Instagram post.

‘I have been looking at this poor woman with distaste for weeks and wondering how her husband tolerates her.

‘Now I feel like a complete b***h. The poor woman. I hope she finds peace and happiness with her babies.”

A slew of fans took to the comments section to agree with her sentiments as they shared their heartfelt messages of support for Kylie.

One wrote: ‘I felt exactly the same! You never know what’s going on, or what happened. All peace to her.’

Another said: ‘I feel the same Meshel – I was humiliated by my cheating ex and that was without the whole of Australia watching. No wonder she’s so bitter and hurt.”

A third commented: ‘Totally agree. This doesn’t need to be broadcast. It’s so terrible.’

A fourth wrote: ‘Very surprised – didn’t see that coming,’ while another added: ‘I’m guilty of thinking the same thing.’

In scenes on Monday, Brad admitted to making ‘inappropriate’ comments to Mimi over drinks at his home, while his sleeping wife Kylie was within earshot.

Brad later said he believed his marriage was “done” and that he had “single-handedly destroyed my family” with his actions, after Kylie suddenly halted production.

A devastated Kylie apparently flew to Cairns to be with her and Brad’s four children after revealing how her husband told Mimi he would ‘follow her OnlyFans’.

Despite the drama leaving their marriage ‘in tatters’, Ny Breaking Australia understands Brad and Kylie are still together and working on their relationship.

“Kylie and Brad have been working on their marriage for months,” a TV insider exclusively confirmed.

‘The Block shoot left their relationship in tatters and they had prepared for Australia to see what everyone was whispering about.’

“A lot of water has passed under the bridge and Kylie has chosen to stand by her husband,” a friend of Kylie’s continued.

“Brad and Kylie are together and that’s really all Australia needs to know.”

Mimi and Kristian, who are also still together, hinted that Kylie and Brad are working on things when they broke their silence on Channel Nine’s Upfronts on Thursday.

Speaking to Ny Breaking Australia, the newlyweds insisted there is no tension between them and Kylie and Brad, adding that they had seen the couple a week earlier, hinting at their relationship status.

‘There is no tension. We saw them last week and I talked to him. Yes. But there’s nothing wrong,’ Mimi said.

The drama started when Mimi and Brad got chatting while having a drink at his house while Kylie slept within earshot, with Brad admitting he had crossed a line with his comments.

‘I’ve made some pretty inappropriate comments. “I was flirting with Mimi…Kylie heard them, and understandably she’s quite upset,” he later explained.

During a subsequent phone debrief with her mother, Kylie revealed exactly what happened during the shocking conversation between her husband and Mimi.

‘Flirting, and talking very inappropriately. How many damn chances have I given him? Over and over,” she told her mother.

Kylie then revealed one of the devastating comments her husband made during the flirty conversation.

“Oh, you know I would follow your OnlyFans,” the electrician and plumber allegedly said to Mimi, within earshot of his “napping” wife.

She also claimed that Brad “whined” about her during the conversation, claiming it had “happened before.”

Kylie immediately left the show, with presenter Scott announcing her departure from the construction site the following morning, and she has not been seen since.

“We found her car, blocked the phone, all the signage… we did everything we could to locate her, but she hasn’t been seen,” he said.

Kylie left her car at 2.34pm that day, taking only her handbag, with Brad speculating that Kylie had returned to Cairns to be with their children.

A message recorded on Kylie’s Block-provided phone seemed to support his theory as she admitted her marriage was “on the rocks.”

“Okay, so I’m saying goodbye. I can’t appear on national television if my marriage breaks down. So I’m going home, and I can’t say I’m coming back,” she tearfully announced in the post.

‘You can talk to Brad about the details, but unfortunately I can’t do it anymore. Thank you for the opportunity and I’m sorry I can’t stay until the end, I’m just not strong enough anymore.’

When Brad later spoke to producers, he admitted that he believed his marriage was “done.”

‘I feel ashamed and sorry for other people who have to live with my choices. She is the last person I want to hurt – her or my children or my family. But I still managed it. There is no way this will go away or get better. It’s done,” Brad said.

“I’d almost say I single-handedly destroyed my family.”

Mimi and her husband Kristian (both pictured) broke their silence on the scandal, telling Ny Breaking Australia there was flirting but said they had put the infidelity behind them.

“Our relationship is stronger than ever,” Kristian claimed when asked about the scandal involving his wife.

“The thing about the show is that everything we’ve done has happened in the past. We learned from everything we went through, and we are better for it,” Mimi added.

“So if it happens, it happened in the past. Yes. I don’t really care.’

“When I came out of The Block, I thought, ‘Okay, let’s think about our experience and what we learned from it,’” Mimi added.
