\n\t\t\tIt turns out that The Traitors castle can spark murder, deceit \u2014 and love. The Real Housewives of Atlanta alum Phaedra Parks confirmed on the Friday, September 4, broadcast of SiriusXM\u2019s Jeff Lewis Live that she\u2019s dating season 2 costar Chris \u201cCT\u201d Tamburello. \u201cAre you dating? \u2018Cause I heard you were going to the Emmys [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Just one day before the Emmys, Phaedra confirmed her romance<\/span><\/a> with CT during a Friday, September 5, episode of SiriusXM\u2019s Jeff Lewis Live<\/i>. Without divulging many details, the Bravolebrity coyly hinted that their red carpet debut would not be a platonic outing because they\u2019ve \u201cbeen out\u201d a handful of times.<\/p>\n

Phaedra and CT met while filming 2024\u2019s second season of Peacock\u2019s The Traitors<\/i>, quickly forming a close bond. While watching the pair tackle the hit murder mystery competition, fans and fellow contestants alike believed the duo had a sizzling connection.<\/p>\n

\u201cI ship it,\u201d their costar Peter Weber<\/b> exclusively told Us <\/i>at the time<\/span><\/a>. \u201cI think they\u2019re really cute together. They had some good chemistry. Who knows what the future holds with them?\u201d<\/p>\n

Despite Peter\u2019s wishes, CT denied the showmance rumors.<\/p>\n

\u201cNothing real happened, I\u2019ll be honest with you,\u201d CT told Entertainment Weekly<\/i> in March 2024<\/span><\/a>, denying the viral speculation. \u201cIt was fun. I loved her because she\u2019s a cornball. She was great. I would say there was a sense of sincerity, for sure. But it was also playing a game, you know?\u201d<\/p>\n
