“We’re both perfectionists.”

Han and Can’s relationship has been put to the test on The Block 2025, and at times, it hasn’t always come out on top. Viewers have seen them argue over painting, disagree on styling choices and exchange more than a few sharp remarks.

However, Han and Can — who were dating for a year before they joined the show — told Chattr that there’s a very positive side to their relationship that they wish was shown on TV.

“We’re both naturally fun, playful, and affectionate when not under extreme pressure,” they said.

“We love to laugh, dream up ideas together, and bring those ideas to life. We’re both perfectionists and we take pride in creating something special, which meant during the show we were often so busy on site or on the road that our lighter moments happened late at night back in the vans.”

Han and Can were in a different position from the other teams — rather than having their own builder, they had a chippy named Ben. That meant Han was taking on the extra workload that a builder normally would.

“What viewers may not realise is that Ben wasn’t a builder, he was a chippy even though they are calling him a ‘builder for the purpose of the show. Before we went on the show, production told us that we ‘don’t need a builder, you just need a good chippy’. So, I ended being the builder and stepping into the role of managing the build, trades, making calls, placing orders, and making countless daily decisions,” Han told Chattr.

Looking back, Han and Can said they would have brought a builder on board from day one — not only to ease the workload, but also to reduce stress and allow them to support each other more positively throughout the competition.

“If we had our time again, we’d have a bigger team and start the show with a builder to take some of the pressure off and allow us to enjoy those moments more often,” they said.

Do Han and Can get along with the rest of The Block cast?

While The Block 2025 has sparked plenty of strong friendships among the cast, viewers have noticed that Han and Can have kept to themselves, sometimes even skipping group outings.

“I feel so bad for the girl. They are wound so tight and cry a lot. I think if they let the other contestants in it might help,” one person wrote on Facebook.

However, despite how it may appear, Can told Chattr that they have a great relationship with all of the other Blockheads.

“We genuinely got along with everyone and see the cast as a little family. We even stayed together in an Airbnb after filming and got matching tattoos at the launch! Later in the season, we became especially close with Sonny and Leesh. We supported each other through the highs and lows and built a bond based on genuine care,” she said.

We love to hear it!
