The Block’s Kylie and Brad Baker were spotted befriending Channel Nine producer Julian Cress during the Melbourne Cup, despite their alleged falling out.
The couple were involved in highly dramatic scenes on reality TV show Nine when Kylie shockingly left the set amid the ongoing ‘flirtgate’ drama.
The tension started when Brad told fellow contestant Mimi – who is married to Kristian – that he would follow her OnlyFans account if she had one in a flirty conversation.
Amid the on-screen controversy, Kylie then stormed off the set and threatened to ‘break the damn camera’ if the crew continued filming in a dramatic exit.
Although Kylie vowed to boycott auction day in an apparent feud with Nine, she and her husband Brad now appear to be back on good terms with the network.
The couple, who are still together after the ‘flirtgate’ drama, were seen smiling and laughing with The Block co-creator and executive producer Julian on Tuesday.
The trio were spotted spending hours together at Flemington Racecourse for the Melbourne Cup as things between them seemed anything but frosty.
Proving that things were not as tense as shown on screen, the group all socialized in the Channel Nine marquee at the Birdcage, where they appeared on good terms.

Although Kylie vowed to boycott auction day in an apparent feud with Nine, she and her husband Brad now appear to be back on good terms with the network.
Despite Kylie’s promise to boycott auction day, sources also claimed the couple would consider returning for the sale if the reserve was at the right price.
Ny Breaking Australia has contacted Nine for comment.
It comes just days after Kylie and Brad were involved in scenes on The Block, which appeared to show strained relations between them and the production team.
On Sunday, Kylie’s journey on the show came to an explosive end when she clashed spectacularly with the show’s judges, host Scott Cam and even her own team of tradies.
In a dramatic build-up to the final round of judging, tensions reached boiling point when Kylie ordered her team to stop work just hours before the final reveal.
‘F**king, leave it all. I want everyone out, I’m not kidding,” she instructed, before telling Brad to get them out. TO GET. THEM. OUT. Tell them to leave! I don’t want their help.’
Left with no choice, Brad relayed her orders to their bewildered tradies, who reluctantly packed up and left.

The next day, when host Scott Cam shouted “tools down” for the final time, Kylie was noticeably absent from the celebration.
In an emotional on-camera confession, she shared that she and Brad initially went to The Block for a “vacation” before the “flirtgate” drama rocked their seven-year marriage.
She revealed that unlike her husband, who runs a ‘very successful’ business, she lives pay check to pay check and was hoping to make some much-needed money from her time on the show.
After a grueling week, Kylie and Brad were criticized by the judges, who pointed out that their front garden was not yet finished.
During the feedback, a tense conversation broke out between Kylie and Scott Cam, prompting Kylie to storm out, followed closely by Brad.
A frustrated Scott tried to call them back, but Kylie threatened to “break the damn camera” if the crew continued to film her as she vowed to boycott auction day.
Kylie split from her husband Brad on national television last week after his flirty comments to Mimi.
Brad admitted making ‘inappropriate’ comments to Mimi, who is married to Kristian on the show, over drinks while his sleeping wife Kylie was within earshot.
On Sunday, Kylie’s journey on the show came to an explosive end when she clashed with the show’s judges, host Scott Cam and even her own team of tradies, leading to huge fallout.

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.
However, Ny Breaking Australia revealed last week that the couple – who share four children – are now back together, despite their huge fallout during filming.
“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.’
Mimi and Kristian are also still together after the ‘flirtgate’ drama and rubbed shoulders with Kylie and Brad when they all attended the Melbourne Cup on Tuesday.
