“Carrie and Tommy have really capitalized on their chemistry, which is obvious on the weekly show,” they added of their on-air success.
“The general question of ‘are you dating or not?’ has been a big draw for both of us.”
Daily Mail Australia has contacted Carrie and Tommy’s representatives for comment.
Carrie and Tommy have been the subject of romance rumors since hosting their HIT FM radio show from Paris, France, last year.
Last month, the couple was seen cuddling for a backstage photo at the ACRAs after skipping the red carpet altogether.
Carrie split from her partner of 11 years, Chris Walker, in 2022, while Tommy has reportedly been single since splitting from girlfriend Natalie Kyriacou in 2021.
Tommy rushed to Carrie’s side when she confirmed their breakup, leading insiders to speculate that their friendship could evolve into something more.
Carrie announced her split from Chris in an Instagram post in January 2022, saying the couple would be parents to their three children, Ollie, 16, Evie, eight, and Adelaide, five.

“It is with immense sadness that Chris and I have decided to separate,” she wrote.
“While this is a difficult time, our focus is on parenting, loving and supporting our three children, Ollie, Evie and Addie, with everything we have.”
The radio co-hosts have also had a very successful year with their behind-the-wheel radio show.
In August, Carrie and Tommy were once again named the number one national drive show in Australia.
The Hit Network show garnered an 11.1 per cent share in Australia, securing the top spot for the fourth time in a row.

‘Thank you, Australia, for making us number one for the fourth time in a row.
“We have a great time every afternoon and love sharing the fun with listeners across the country.”
