All season of The Block, Andy’s partner-in-crime, Ben Toyne, has been lamenting over the fact that his mate is still single.

But now Ben, who is in a relationship, can stop worrying!

Woman’s Day can exclusively reveal that 25-year-old Andy has a new girlfriend called Louise Conheady – and he met her while filming the show!

According to sources, Ben and Louise hit it off when he met her in a surf shop during filming.

“Andy and Lou are really happy and he dotes on her, the relationship is going really well and it is nice for him to have someone because Ben is dating,” an insider tells us.

As our exclusive photos show, Andy and Louise have gone public with their romance and this week, they attended Channel Nine’s pre Melbourne Cup party at Eureka 89 in Melbourne together.

Joined by his ultimate wingman Ben, Andy looked thrilled to be out and about with his girlfriend.

When the besties from Geelong aren’t busy renovating in Port Melbourne, it turns out they’ve been spending their spare time brushing up on Andy’s dating prowess.

“So it’s coming towards the end of The Block. I’m starting to get worried for my friend, Andy. He’s still loveless,” Ben confessed in a behind-the-scenes clip.

“It’s time to create an open space for the females of The Block and really open up about how we can get Andy a lovely lady,” the primary school teacher added.

In a hilarious segment called Ben Finds Andy Love, Ben hits up his castmates for dating tips.

Some of the Blockheads’ hilarious love tips for Andy included washing his feet, not to pass as much body gas, to stop looking in the mirror and to stop talking.

Whether or not Andy took on these tips to help woo Louise remains to be seen but we have a feeling he’s not going to be able to hide those pesky habits since they’ve been aired on national television.

It took Ben and Andy four years to finally score a spot on the popular reality TV show and it looks like all that waiting has well and truly paid off.
