The Block’s Shelley Craft is keeping quiet on the rift between her TV co-host Scott Cam and Adrian ‘Mr Lambo’ Portelli.
The controversial LMCT+ billionaire has attacked Channel Nine, accusing them of undervaluing his contribution after the big spender dropped a whopping $12 million at last year’s Block auctions.
He’s also slammed Scott Cam online, branding him a ‘clown’ in a scathing outburst, while readying to launch a rival renovation show My Reno Rules on Seven.
And in a surprising twist, Shelley has opted to ignore Portelli’s spat with Scott, instead congratulating the entrepreneur on his new career move.
In an interview with Woman’s Day on Tuesday, the 49-year-old renovation guru wished Portelli luck.
She added, ‘I was wondering, if he was leaving us behind, where was he going to publicise his next venture?
‘So when I saw him pop up with that, I was like, ‘Oh, there you go, that’s great.”‘

Shelley continued: ‘Obviously, his business has an incredible model of lotteries for different things… The way he’s going about this, good luck to them.’
Elsewhere in the chat, Craft appeared to make a vague reference to the feud.
‘I guess I was trained from a very early age… that when you do say something, it will be judged,’ she said.
She also commented on her long-term friendship with Scott.
‘He’s a superstar and a delightful man and just good fun,’ she said.
It comes after the controversial LMCT+ billionaire, known as ‘Mr Lambo’, lashed out at Channel Nine, accusing them of undervaluing his contribution to the franchise.
Sources close to the production claim tensions were ‘brewing the moment the cameras stopped rolling’ on the 2024 Phillip Island season.
Despite spending millions on the Block auctions, insiders say Adrian felt ‘dismissed’ by producers and host Scott Cam, and he didn’t keep his fury a secret.

‘He gave them the biggest TV moment of the season and barely got a thank you,’ one insider told Daily Mail Australia.
The situation exploded after Adrian appeared on Nova’s Jase & Lauren, slamming the show as ‘staged’ and fuelling conspiracy theories about why The Block was mysteriously removed from Sportsbet odds before the finale.
And just last week, Adrian upped the ante again, branding beloved host Scott a ‘clown’ in a scathing online outburst.
Friends of the long-time presenter say he was blindsided by the personal attack.
‘Scott genuinely thought they were on good terms,’ a close source said.
‘Scotty Cam is renowned for being friendly on camera but keeps to himself off set. It’s rubbed some people the wrong way over the years.’
Now, in a major twist, Adrian is jumping ship and is teaming up with rival network Channel Seven to launch his very own renovation show.
The series will be hosted by none other than Dr Chris Brown, but the bold move has already raised eyebrows.

‘Let’s call it what it is. It’s a revenge show,’ a former contestant laughed. ‘He wants to prove he can do The Block better than The Block.’
Despite Channel Seven’s excitement over Adrian’s deep pockets, sources say his involvement has already triggered a PR crisis.
‘Chris Brown’s team is seriously nervous,’ a senior network figure revealed.
‘He’s a squeaky-clean brand and doesn’t want to get dragged into a public feud. There is also that fear that if Adrian can turn so quickly on Scotty, he could easily do the same with Dr Chris Brown.’
Channel Seven production is still, however, moving ahead at full throttle, but with The Block back on air and Adrian noticeably missing from the auction line-up, industry insiders are watching closely to see if his absence tanks the record-breaking results of previous seasons.
