Tommy Little has continued to fan the flames of romance rumours with his HIT Network co-host Carrie Bickmore as he makes massive lifestyle changes for the blonde beauty.

The comedian, 40, revealed on Sunday he has given up vaping and is attempting to lose 10kgs so he can run The Big Five Marathon in South Africa to raise money for Carrie’s Beanies 4 Brain Cancer charity. 

Sharing a video of himself taking a jog to Instagram, Tommy said he has seven weeks to get into running shape for the cause, saying he has become a ‘doughy boy’ since his last marathon. 

‘We are seven weeks out from The Big Five Marathon in South Africa. I just ran 13.3 kms. Not quick because I am a doughy boy,’ the radio star said.

‘I weighed myself this week. I weigh 86kg, which might not sound like that much, but the only time I ran a marathon I weighed 70kg. So I am 16kg over my previous running weight.’

Tommy went on to joke he needed to wear ‘a sports brazier when he runs’ before encouraging his followers to donate to his co-star’s cause to help find a cure for brain cancer.

‘I’m trying the best I can. I don’t think I’m going to be breaking any PBs [personal best], but I’ve quit vaping for the 42nd time this week. I did three runs. A couple sessions in the gym.’ 

Tommy went on to write in the caption of his video: ‘I plan to lose at least 10kgs and work my a*** off for the next seven weeks. Anyone who wants to get involved is more than welcome.’ 

Work colleague and rumoured love interest Carrie, 44, took to the comments to encourage Tommy, writing: ‘Yes Tommy! Yes! You got this.’

To which Tommy playfully responded: ‘You’re stoned again aren’t you?’

It comes after Carrie also showed her support for Tommy’s career when she stepped out at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival to cheer him on during one of his shows. 

The Hit Network star shared an image of her colleague to Instagram Stories earlier last month when she went to watch one of his I’m Not Proud shows at the Comedy Theatre.

In the picture, Tommy could be seen smiling on stage as he held a microphone and addressed the audience, wearing an all-black ensemble as he flashed his numerous tattoos.

Carrie took the photo from the crowd and captioned it with ‘5 star review’ alongside a hand clapping emoji and star emoji.

In march, Tommy took to the stage again to make jokes at his co-star’s expense for The Roast of Carrie Bickmore.

However, the media personality had the crowd speculating whether he had the hots for the blonde beauty after he made a suggestive comment about her appearance.

During the roast, Tommy declared Carrie ‘looks better and better’ every day.

‘She’s just getting hotter and hotter, and if you want to know what’s her secret: cosmetic surgery,’ he joked.

‘Want to know what Carrie would look like without all the work done? Bev Killick,’ he added, as he gestured to the comedian who was also taking part in the comedy skit.

Carrie donned a stunning red gown for the occasion.

Her figure was on full display in the show-stopping backless number.

The night out came after Carrie’s very public split from longtime partner Chris Walker in 2023.

Work colleague and rumoured love interest Carrie, 44, took to the comments to encourage Tommy, writing: ‘Yes Tommy! Yes! You got this.’ To which Tommy playfully responded: ‘You’re stoned again aren’t you?’

Rumours of a romance between her and her Hit Network pal Tommy quickly ensued.

The pair have made a number of appearances together of late, cuddling up at a golf tournament in Adelaide and enjoying a trip to Uluru together.

Carrie shared a sweet photo to Instagram of herself and Tommy embracing one another and smiling at the LIV golf tournament.

Meanwhile, Tommy recently made a relationship confession which continued to fan the flames of romance rumours.

The comedian confessed to Stellar he is very keen to start a family and settle down—even if he’s not entirely ready to grow up yet.
