Stress can sometimes get the best of you in a renovation competition. Not only did Nate Berkus and Jeremiah Brent have to work together all day long on Rock the Block, but because they live together, work stress followed them home, too. And just like any other married couple, these two really know how to aggravate each other. However, they still wouldn't have it any other way. "We definitely push each other, but we love that tension creatively," Brent explained during the press event. "And that's usually where the most interesting things are born."
Even with that being the case, disagreements on design are something that could never tear these two apart. Working together — throughout all aspects of their life — is something Brent and Berkus are accustomed to. They're the best at challenging each other, and their love for interior decorating seems to be something that has always brought them together behind-the-scenes. Even on their off-days away from the set of Rock the Block, the two were spending every waking moment at old antique stores around the area and dreaming about the perfect design.
Even when times are tough, Berkus and Brent know they'll always be the dream design team. "There's no one else I would have rather done this with," Berkus said. "There's no one else I would even dream of doing it with." They're the perfect partners — on and off the screen.
HGTV's fiercest home renovation duos face off during the hit competition series Rock the Block on HGTV every Monday at 9 p.m. ET/PT. It's also available to stream on discovery+.
