Phaedra Parks and CT Tamburello's Red Carpet Debut Sparks Romance Buzz

Phaedra Parks and her former “Traitors” co-star Chris “CT” Tamburello made their red carpet debut at the Creative Arts Emmys 2026 on Saturday.

According to photos obtained by Page Six, Tamburello had his arm around the “Real Housewives of Atlanta” star’s waist as they posed together at the award show.

Parks, 52, looked stunning in a black velvet dress that featured crystals lined along the cutout portion. Her blond bob was flipped and she paired her look with diamond jewelry.

The “Real World” alum, 46, looked dapper in a classic black tuxedo.

The couple did not show any PDA on the red carpet.

After the awards show, Parks took to Instagram to gush over her “prize” as she shared photos of them getting cozy together and holding hands.

“Some came for the awards. I came with the prize,” she captioned the post. “Thank you to the real trophy for making a beautiful night even better. #Emmys.”

Tamburello and Parks’ show, “Traitors,” was nominated for seven Emmys and took home six of them.

The outing came two days after the “Married to Medicine” alum confirmed she and the “Challenge” star were dating.

Page Six exclusively reported that Tamburello and Parks’ blossoming romance was a long time coming.

“He made it clear to her he really, really liked her and he fell for her when they were on ‘Traitors,’” a source told Page Six Friday.

We’re told Tamburello recently began to reach out to the mom of two more.

“He makes her really happy,” our source added. “They really do laugh together a lot and their relationship is really sweet.”

Tamburello and Parks became fan favorites when they appeared on “Traitors” Season 2 together in 2024.

At the time, the attorney was one of the secret traitors and was banished by their castmates, while Tamburello went on to win the series.

Parks shares sons Ayden, 16, and Dylan, 13, with ex-husband Apollo Nida, from whom she finalized her divorce in July 2017.

Tamburello shares son Christopher “C.J.,” 10, with ex-wife Lilianet “Lili” Solares, from whom he divorced in 2022.

He then secretly married Catalina Hager in October 2024. The OnlyFans model filed for divorce in January.
