Real Housewives of Atlanta‘s Phaedra Parks and The Challenge veteran CT Tamburello have seemingly taken their relationship to the next level.
After weeks of flirty social media exchanges, Phaedra confirmed that there is more than friendship between them. The RHOA star addressed the romance during an appearance on Jeff Lewis Live.
Phaedra was asked directly if she could confirm that she and CT are dating.
“I think so,” she replied.
Host Jeff Lewis then revealed that CT was actually outside the studio.
The romance comes more than two years after Phaedra and CT formed a memorable connection while competing together on The Traitors Season 2.
CT also appeared to acknowledge the relationship on social media, referring to Phaedra as his “bae.” He later shared a video of himself peeking in on her radio appearance while Whitney Houston’s “I Wanna Dance with Somebody (Who Loves Me)” played in the background.
The pair’s relationship speculation reignited in August when CT publicly shot his shot with Phaedra on Instagram. CT shared a photo of Phaedra and joked that he was still looking for a plus-one to the upcoming Emmy Awards.
“Anybody want to throw a good word in for me!? … still looking for a +1 for The Emmy’s,” he wrote, adding, “A man can dream.”
Phaedra, who competed on Season 33 of Dancing With the Stars, responded with the flirtatious message, “Baby I’m already yours.”
The flirting continued when CT later announced that Phaedra had said yes to being his Emmy date. Phaedra commented, “It’s a date,” alongside several flirty emojis. She also subsequently referred to CT as “my man” and “claimed.”
