The Block’s Kylie and Brad Baker made their first public appearance since their dramatic exit from the hit Channel Nine show.
The couple were seen relaxing at the Melbourne Cup on Tuesday, enjoying some drinks and some laughs.
Kylie looked glamorous in a figure-hugging one-shoulder emerald green dress, elegantly ruched at the sides for a flattering finish.
Her blonde hair was styled sleek and straight, with a bold, oversized black headpiece crowning her look.
She accessorized with statement earrings that dangled elegantly as she sipped her glass of champagne, her makeup featuring a smoky eye and a soft peach lip.
Meanwhile, Brad kept his look classic yet stylish in a beige suit jacket, black shirt, and matching pants, complete with aviator sunglasses.
With a beer in hand, he seemed unfazed by the rumors.
His public exit comes amid the fallout from The Block’s ‘flirt-gate’ scandal, where Brad’s cheeky comment to fellow contestant Mimi Belperio about following her hypothetical Onlyfans account ignited tensions with Kylie.

In a shocking turn of events during Sunday night’s episode, Kylie stormed off the set, visibly upset and declaring that she was “done” with the show.
According to a source, Kylie and Brad’s departure left House Four unfinished, with much of the remaining work completed by its builders.
This has fueled resentment among other contestants, who argue that the couple should not benefit financially if their property sells above the guide price at auction.

“Channel Nine needed a lot more closure after the couple left the show,” an anonymous contestant revealed.
‘House Four was the least completed property and other builders had to step in and make the final decisions. It does not seem reasonable not to finish the house and still be entitled to the same percentages.
Despite the backlash, a clause in the contestants’ contracts may ensure Kylie and Brad a profit in the upcoming auction.
While the other teams celebrated “down-tooling” with host Scott Cam, Kylie was noticeably absent, with Brad leaving to convey his final order to the tradies to “leave it” and “get out” during their final hours of work.
In an emotional confession, Kylie revealed that she initially joined The Block in hopes of gaining financial relief, contrasting her own pay-to-pay lifestyle with her husband’s successful business.
“We’re always working, always being parents,” he admitted. “I thought we’d have a vacation here.”
As auction day approaches, Kylie and Brad’s appearance at the Melbourne Cup could be their attempt to form a united front, but it remains to be seen whether their gamble on The Block will pay off.
