The Block frontrunner Sarah-Jane has been joking on camera about finding her next husband as she and Tom start to get to the pointy end of the reno series. But sources say the pressure the show is having on the pair's three-year marriage is no laughing matter.
During one recent fiery on-camera confrontation, Tom called his wife "an absolute feral rat", causing Sarah-Jane to see red. "Alright, let's go! I'll show you feral," she retorted. And that was before host Scott Cam last week remarked that there was almost a divorce in House 1.
Now Sarah-Jane admits to Woman's Day appearing on the reality show has taken its toll on the couple. "We prepared ourselves for a really emotional and exhausting experience," says the 30-year-old, who confesses the couple's biggest weaknesses in the competition "would [be] our hot-headedness and just bickering with each other, which can be a time-waster".
