When high school sweethearts turned Lego Masters stars Tim and Dannii met at just 12 years old, they never envisioned a life as colourful or as testing as theirs.
For salesman Tim, Lego was a crucial aspect in his recovery, after the father-of-two was diagnosed with a brain tumour in 2014 that threatened to take his life in three weeks.
“At the age of 19, nobody really comprehends the fact their life could be over, ” says the 25-year-old, who is legally blind in one eye.

“My family found some Lego at a car boot sale and sat with me for hours as I built a Lego castle with them,” he says.
Thankfully, Tim’s health crisis is now firmly in the past, but he and Dannii face another challenge – taking out the Lego Masters title!
“We now spend our child-free time in the Lego room, just hanging out and fiddling with model concepts,” says Dannii.
