Jon-Jeremy Bradey: The Block announces death of pool tradie at 42

The cast and crew of The Block are in mourning after the death of one of their beloved tradies, Jon-Jeremy Bradey of A Plus Enterprises.

The pool expert, who died on October 14 at the age of 42, worked on the hit Channel Nine renovation show for several seasons.

Bradey, known as ‘Jon Jon’ to his mates, was given a touching tribute by The Block on Sunday night.

A picture of Bradey in a tuxedo was shown at the end of the episode, alongside the caption: ‘In memory of Jon Jeremy Bradey, 1980-2022.’

Fans of The Block will remember Bradey as the ‘pool king’ who worked on Kirsty and Jesse’s property during the 2021 season of the ratings blockbuster.

He also concreted Josh and Luke’s pool in the same season.

The father of three was a legend in the building industry and a devoted father and friend, reports the Herald Sun.

His reputation for precision earned him the nickname ‘Mr One Per Cent’.

Bradey’s wife Candice Howman said she was overwhelmed by the love and support from friends of her late husband.

A funeral for the much-loved tradie was held at Narre Warren North on Monday. 

Bradey is survived by his wife and three children, Anileese, Amelia and Kobe.
