Hidden camera footage reveals Block cheater
<p>The contestants of <em>The Block</em> have been rocked by a dramatic cheating saga, with the main players of the scandal being exposed on Tuesday night. </p>
<p>In shocking hidden camera footage, one couple is seen conspiring to get their story straight before confessing everything to the show's producers. </p>
<p>The incident began on Sunday night's episode, when it was discovered that twins Josh and Luke had seen a top secret photo of the show's production schedule, giving them insight on what rooms would be coming up and getting a head start. </p>
<p>As other contestants asked where the photo originally came from, Tanya and Vito finally came forward to address their involvement. </p>
<p>Tanya said the top secret production schedule had been texted to her by one of the tradies on the job site, and she then forwarded the message to Luke. </p>
<p>When producers asked Tanya if she had received the text to her Block number, she responded "Yes," before quickly correcting herself and saying "<span>No, it was my personal phone number.”</span></p>
<p>Tanya said that keeping the secret had been "eating her up inside" and she wanted to move on with the competition. </p>
<p><span>“So that is the truth, Luke got it from me, but I got it from an ex-tradie from </span>The Block<span>,” she said, adding that within 48 hours she deleted the photo and text message entirely.</span></p>
<p>“I could have kept the number and I could have kept the photo but I just couldn’t do that, honestly I really couldn't,” she said.</p>
<p>“I deleted the photo initially because I was like ‘I don’t want to be a part of this and I don’t want the person who sent this to me to be implicated by this’. It’s just been a ripple effect.”</p>
<p>Despite Tanya's confession, the episode concluded with secret camera footage from <em>The Block</em> tea room where Tanya was having a conversation with her husband. </p>
<p>“I’m going to tell the camera what happened about the tradie sending me the photo. It was a number I didn’t know, and I deleted it straight away,” Tanya was heard whispering.</p>
<p>“The thing is … it was my Block number, yeah,” she said, contradicting what she told producers.</p>
<p>Then, she lowered her voice to drop the biggest bombshell of the episode, advising her husband, “You’ve got to always have the same consistent story...”</p>
<p>The saga will continue on the next episode of <em>The Block</em>, where a body corporate meeting will decide the fate of those involved in the cheating scandal. </p>
