The Block's Leah reveals 'serious' outcome of on-air clash with Kristy
Things came to a head between Leah and Kristy on The Block.
Last night, things came to a head between former besties on The Block, Leah and Kristy.
A tense conversation saw the pair appear to go their separate ways, with Leah claiming she and husband Ash “got really overtaken” by Kristy and Brett “and their strong personalities”.
“We became people that we’re just not. Even though we don’t hold the same opinions we were still listening to it, we were still engaging in conversations, and we didn’t stand up for what was right,” she said.

In an interview with news.com.au, Leah said the ramifications of the conversation between the couples are still being felt today.
“This affected the rest of my experience on The Block. Some serious, deep issues went on. At the moment, most of the cast are trying to stay very positive and professional,” Leah said.
When asked by the publication if she and Ash were ‘realigning’ themselves with Kristy and Brett post-show, Leah said: “There is absolutely no realigning (with Kristy and Brett). It’s not fair that that rumour sparked up when no-one has the facts”.
Eliza and Liberty spill on couples 'realigning'
It comes after House 5’s Eliza and Liberty appeared on the Fifi, Fev & Nick show last week to claim that the group WhatsApp ‘diminished the day the show started,’ and they’ve now all got their separate groups.
“Leah and Ash and Kristy and Brett have realigned again post-show which we just can’t understand and is rubbing us up the wrong way a little bit,” Liberty said.
“We can’t understand why Leah and Ash want to realign themselves with these people again when they’re seeing what they’re seeing on TV.”
They went on to detail an ‘awkward’ encounter they had with House 3’s Kristy and Brett last weekend, saying: “It’s really toxic, it's so bad. We saw each other on the weekend, had to be in the same room which was interesting,” with Liberty adding that it was ‘so awkward’.
According to Eliza, when she and Kristy came face-to-face over the weekend, Kristy said to her: “Aw maybe you shouldn’t have gone on reality TV, maybe you’re not cut out for it”
“I kind of think I’m perfect for reality TV because I have real emotions and I’m responding as a real human to bad behaviour that I’m seeing,” Eliza said.
“They’re coming on national TV and saying ‘it was all a gameshow to us, everyone knew we were playing games, it was all light-hearted and fun and funny' but I’m like ‘you’re the only one laughing’.”
