In the footage, the 35-year-old showed fans his lavish lounge area which shares some similarities to the sprawling Block homes we've seen on TV.

This includes an eye-catching bouclé couch, a heavy fabric made from looped yarn which is one used regularly by Blockheads every year.

Watch the tour in the video above.
