CT Tamburello does not want to jinx his relationship with Phaedra Parks
CT discussed his romance with Phaedra during a recent UFC 331 event. The reality stars previously built a friendship while filming The Traitors. Their relationship later developed into something more.
“I’ll say — I don’t want to jinx it — but I’ll say we’re in a good place,” CT told Us Weekly. His comments came after the couple publicly confirmed their relationship. They also made their red carpet debut earlier this month.
The pair first met while filming The Traitors in 2023. Their chemistry attracted attention, but they remained friends for some time. Their relationship has largely been long-distance so far. CT said that arrangement may actually work well for them. “I know I’m crazy in my own right,” he admitted.
“It’s probably for the best if I’m not around her every day, to be honest,” CT continued. He still had plenty of praise for his girlfriend. “But she’s amazing. She really is.”
CT compared their personalities to the famous song “Opposites Attract.” “That’s us, you know?” he said while describing their dynamic. He also explained why he has become more private about the relationship.
“I mean, contrary to popular belief, I do learn,” CT joked. He said he now understood that some things should remain private. “Some things are better left unsaid and I think oversharing can be a bad thing.”
Still, CT happily shared what he appreciates most about Phaedra. “With her, she just brings peace,” he said. He added, “It’s easy to just stay calm around her.”
The couple’s relationship continues to attract attention across reality television. For now, CT appears focused on enjoying their connection without revealing too much. His latest comments suggest he wants to protect what they have.
