Weeks after CT, 46, who first gained fame on The Real World in 2003, publicly expressed interest in taking the 52-year-old Real Housewives of Atlanta star to next month’s Emmy Awards as his plus one, things appear to have been heating up between the reality stars, with Phaedra shockingly declaring that CT is “[her] man.”
“Anybody want to thro a good word in for me!? … still looking for a +1 for The Emmy’s,” CT wrote in the caption of an August 9 post on Instagram, also adding, “A man can dream,” as he featured a photo of Phaedra at the RHOA season 17 reunion.

Shortly thereafter, Phaedra confirmed, “Baby I’m already yours,” which led CT to share a GIF of Will Smith‘s character from The Fresh Prince of Bel Air fainting onto a couch.

Days later, CT returned to Instagram with another video that said, “She said yes,” and included snippets of Phaedra.
“TY for putting in a good word,” he added in a caption.

“It’s a date,” Phaedra replied with a series of heart-eyed, fire, and kissing emojis, which CT quickly sent back to her.

In further screenshots shared by the Real Moms of Bravo on Instagram, Phaedra was seen with a message that read, “That’s my man!” She then described CT as “claimed” as she reshared one of his posts.

Meanwhile, over on CT’s page, he reshared a video she posted of an ad for Audible.

In March 2024, after appearing alongside CT on The Traitors season two, Phaedra addressed her feelings toward him during an interview with Extra.
“Oh man, I would love to work with CT again. He is just salt of the earth, a great guy. Just a gentleman, you know, alpha male,” she gushed.
