The Block’s Whitney and Andrew call it quits

“We both knew it was going to happen because I wasn’t happy for a little while”

The Block’s Whitney Nolan has confirmed she and boyfriend Andrew Simmons have broken up.

“Officially, it has just ended but in my eyes it was weeks ago, when we started working on the communal level,” she told Woman’s Day.

“Yes there were tears,” she added. “He was upset and I was upset, but I think we both understood it was coming to an end. We both knew it was going to happen because I wasn’t happy for a little while.”

A Nine spokesperson also confirmed the pair went their separate ways.

“We can confirm that Andrew and Whitney are no longer seeing each other. The split is amicable and the pair remain close friends. They have been great competitors on The Block and we wish them all the very best for the future.”

The results of the show will be revealed in the Grand Finale on Wednesday night.

If the pair win, they plan to split it 50-50.
