The Block's Foreman Dan Reilly and his wife Dani Wales celebrated the arrival of their second child, Fletcher James Reilly, earlier in April 2026. This happy news marks a significant new chapter for the couple after a period of profound grief.
In late 2025, Dan and Dani shared their devastating loss of their daughter, Billie, who lived for only ten days. Billie was born following IVF treatment, and her passing occurred due to complications after a healthy pregnancy.
To honor Billie's memory and support others, Dan and Dani founded Billie's Besties. This foundation raises funds for the NICU at the Royal Women's Hospital in Melbourne, where Billie spent her short time.
The couple, who married in 2018, announced their second pregnancy in November 2025, acknowledging their firstborn in a touching tribute. They shared their gratitude for the ten days they had with Billie.
