Dan and Dani’s journey in the public eye began in 2012 when they first appeared on The Block as contestants. Their chemistry and renovation skills quickly won over audiences, and they walked away with an impressive $448,000 profit. The success of their initial appearance led to a return in 2013 for The Block All Stars, where they added another $220,000 to their winnings.
Their relationship has flourished both on and off-screen. After nine years together, the couple tied the knot in 2018 in a beautiful ceremony on Victoria’s Mornington Peninsula. Now, six years into their marriage, they’re preparing for the exciting adventure of parenthood.
The couple’s connection to The Block has remained strong over the years. Dan continues his role as a foreman on the show, keeping contestants in line and ensuring quality workmanship. Together, Dan and Dani host the popular “Dan vs Dani” segment, where they offer their expert opinions on the contestants’ room reveals each week.
The announcement of their pregnancy has been met with an outpouring of love and support from the Block community.

The pups will be the little ones best friend 😍.” Long-time fans expressed their joy at following the couple’s journey, with one writing, “Been following you guys for a decade.
