The pressure of The Block Australia finally hit seemingly tough contestant Ronnie Caceres this week, with the reality star spotted on the verge of tears on set.

“The thing that really got to me was the fact that I could have killed someone,” Ronnie tells Woman’s Day of the reno slip-up, which saw three and a half tonnes of gyprock fall off a wall onto the site.

“If I had hurt someone, I never would have been able to forgive myself. It was tough. But that’s a day on The Block for you – you don’t know what to expect when you wake up!”

Ronnie was diagnosed with ADHD in 2018 and says he didn’t take his Ritalin pills, which contributed to the incident.

“I was having trouble getting my medication transferred from Perth to Melbourne,” Ronnie tells Woman’s Day. “There were three or four days where I missed my medication. On The Block, you have to be firing on all cylinders.”
