Celebrity Apprentice Australia 2022‘s Carla from Bankstown has called out her co-star Ronnie Caceres for being “homophobic” and “misogynistic”.
Ronnie first rose to fame on The Block 2017 with wife Georgia before they returned to compete in 2022, and they recently appeared in the landmark 20th season to offer some sage advice to the current contestants.
While some viewers were happy to see Ronnie again, Carla — whose real name is Benjamin James — wasn’t one of them.


Taking to her Instagram Story, the media personality joked that she was “so glad that The Block decided to bring back someone who is homophobic and misogynistic”.
“Love that for everyone! I worked with that douchebag Ronnie and let me tell you he is one of the worst humans I’ve ever come across in my life,” she penned.
“So kudos for bringing him back, I guess it’s yet another season of The Block he can lose…again!” LOL!
Carla added: “Let’s just keep giving opportunities to people who DO NOT deserve it! That’s how this industry works, right?”

In a follow-up Story, Carla said it was “disgusting” for Ronnie to go so far in the Celebrity Apprentice competition, given his behaviour.
“The amount of hurt and sh*t he caused to us while filming Celebrity Apprentice and he STILL made the top four was disgusting,” she confessed.
“I have so many stories to tell about him, and I’m happy to share.


Carla From Bankstown reveals more of Ronnie Caceres’ behaviour
After calling Ronnie out on his Story, Carla appeared on episode 422 of the So Dramatic! podcast to expose more of his behaviour on Celebrity Apprentice.
According to Carla, Ronnie “had it out” for Turia Pitt and Bronte Campbell “from the get-go”.
“It was horrible,” she recalled. “Being so rude to them… He would just interrupt them when they were trying to explain something to Lord [Alan] Sugar.”


She also said Ronnie made some “disrespectful” comments to Jean Kittson, insinuating she has “Alzheimer’s” when he was aware that the comedian has a family history of the progressive disease.
“I went off my nut at him, just in general, watching him [and] called him out for being a bully and just so disrespectful to the girls,” Carla added.
The reality star hasn’t shied away from calling Ronnie out in the past.
During episode 195 of the So Dramatic! podcast, she told host Megan Pustetto that Ronnie was “a different person” on and off camera.
“Like, he would say all this sh*t to you on-camera and then off-camera, he’d be your best mate,” she explained.
“I was just like, if you’re going to be a gronk, be a gronk 100 per cent of the time… Don’t f*cking backtrack and pretend to be nice because we all know it’s fake, so I don’t want to talk to you.”
