But the rhythm of House 5 was seriously disrupted when the judges’ reviews were not all positive.
As the competition progressed, Kristian and Mimi were no longer leading the group but trailing behind it as they were unable to win any more quarters.
At one point, judge Marty Fox even suggested that perhaps Kristian and Mimi were being “arrogant” or “arrogant” and that could be the reason for their misstep.
The couple responded to their fall from grace in our exclusive video.
”After all this talk about us potentially breaking records in The block and then not having another win since then, it gets harder and harder and you feel like you’re falling further and further away,” Kristian told 9Entertainment candidly.

Mimi knew that self-doubt was by far her biggest obstacle.
“That’s when rooms start to go pear-shaped, when you’re no longer steady,” she explained.
But Mimi was determined to move forward despite the obvious setbacks.

Despite falling short in the second half of the competition when it came to Room Reveal wins, House 5 wanted to focus on the bigger picture – Auction Day.
“If we can’t win rooms weekly, let’s focus on the end game. Let’s produce a cohesive home that the end buyer will love,” Mimi said.
