Phaedra Parks and Chris “CT” Tamburello were spotted packing on the PDA after making their debut as a couple.
Us obtained exclusive photos of the newly-minted pair cozying up in Fire Island, New York after Parks, 52, brought Tamburello, 46, as her plus-one to MISTR’s “Hot Tub Games” at The Tryst Pool Club on Sunday, September 6.
The Real Housewives of Atlanta star dazzled in black and white Louis Vuitton set while Tamburello opted for a beige button-up shirt and olive pants.
The former Traitors costars looked all loved-up as they smiled for photos. In one snap, The Challenge star snuggled up to Parks and he gave her a sweet kiss on the cheek.
Parks and Tamburello made their red carpet debut together at the Creative Arts Emmy Awards in Los Angeles on Saturday, September 5.
One day before, Parks revealed that she and Tamburello were an item. During an appearance on SiriusXM’s Jeff Lewis Live on Friday, September 4, Parks admitted that she had “been out” with Tamburello but declined to reveal how many dates the pair have had or whether they’d had any “sleepovers” recently.
“I can’t give this [information] to you,” she told host Jeff Lewis. “I’ve got to save it for the world!”
Tamburello and Parks connected during The Traitors season 2, which aired in 2024. While Parks was one of the Traitors, Tamburello was a faithful who went on to win the game alongside Challenge costar Trishelle Cannatella. While in the Traitors castle, Tamburello and Parks were good friends who engaged in flirty banter.
“Nothing real happened, I’ll be honest with you,” Tamburello told Entertainment Weekly in March 2024. “It was fun. I loved her because she’s 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?”
Tamburello is currently in an ongoing divorce with estranged wife Catalina Winter. Following the news of her ex’s romance, Winter called out Tamburello for allegedly delaying their divorce proceedings.
“I genuinely wish Chris well in whatever relationship or career he chooses to pursue. I’m not interested in commenting on whether his new relationship is real, for publicity, or anything in between,” the OnlyFans star told Us in a statement on Monday, September 7. “What I would like is for him to put the same energy into ending our marriage that he’s putting into publicly promoting his new relationship.”
