The Block’s Darren Jolly claims he hasn’t seen his two daughters ‘for months’

Darren Jolly claims he hasn’t been in contact with his two daughters ‘for months’ after splitting from his wife, Deanne, in September.

The 38-year-old former Block star claimed in an Instagram post on February 20 it had been ‘months’ since he’d last spoken to his children, Scarlett and Lily.

‘To my daughters, I miss you like crazy and just want to hold you,’ he wrote. 

Darren and Deanne announced their split in September after 15 years of marriage.

They were popular contestants on Channel Nine’s renovation series The Block, appearing twice in 2014 and 2015, and winning the latter season.

In a statement to the Herald Sun last year, Deanne confirmed the pair’s acrimonious split and claimed Darren had been the one who instigated it.

‘This is a very difficult time for me and my girls. We have been blindsided and left devastated by Darren’s action. But I’m focusing on my two daughters, who are my number one priority,’ she said at the time.

In another Instagram post, which he shared earlier this month, Darren hinted he was going through a difficult time.

He shared a quote that read: ‘The truth always comes out in the end no matter how hard you try to hide it or stop it. Lies are just a temporary delay to the inevitable.’

In a post on Instagram in November, Darren claimed he had fallen into a ‘dark hole’ following his marriage breakdown.

‘To everyone who helped put me in that hole, go f**k yourself,’ he added. 

Daily Mail Australia has contacted Darren and Deanne Jolly for comment.
