Carrie Bickmore and Tommy Little have once again fuelled romance rumours after going on holiday together.
The pair travelled to Hayman Island with some of their colleagues from the Carrie & Tommy radio show as Bickmore stripped down to a skimpy bikini.
Bickmore celebrated the trip away by sharing some pictures of herself showing off her slim physique in a hot pink bikini.
Carrie shared a reel of photos from the idyllic getaway, including one where she sizzles in a hot pink-patterned bikini.
She also shared a snap of herself in a low-cut dress as she headed to dinner with Little and some of their other radio station colleagues.
The celebrity duo have been at the centre of rumours that there's a romance between them for months, with fans believing their on-air back and forth is far too flirty to be platonic.
Rumours began after Bickmore split from her second husband, Chris Walker, in January 2023.
The pair were together for more than a decade and share two daughters, Evie and Adelaide.
Little, who split from ex-girlfriend Natalie Kyriacou in 2021, addressed rumours of a romance between them back in March, denying that there's any kind of spark between them.
'There have been romance rumours about Carrie and I, but unfortunately, because Carrie is in my age bracket (my Tinder age bracket is legal to dead), but I'm not in Carrie's age bracket,' he said.
'She only likes much older, powerful men.'
Meanwhile, the pair both recently appeared together on the finale of The Project.
The Project's longest-serving host, Bickmore, was close to tears thanking everyone she crossed paths with over 13 years.
She left the show to fully devote herself to fundraising efforts for brain cancer.
'It's been ten years since my Gold Logie speech, since I started Carrie's Beanies for brain cancer and I genuinely, I wanted to raise $1m. I would not have raised over $25m if it wasn't for you guys at home watching. So thank you so much.'
Comedic regular Little also went on to explain his motivation for joining the show.
'The one thing that I did want to say is to the people back home; my time on the show – which I will be forever grateful for – was just trying to make you laugh.'
'People at home, if you'd often have days where you wouldn't have a laugh – that's all I wanted to give you and I understand that it is a privilege doing what we get to do.'

Aged-care fashion events lift residents' spirits with dress-ups fun

Sporting a hot pink blazer and pineapple sunglasses, Judy Ellison reckons colour is the key to fashion. The 89-year-old glamour queen, who once ran fashion events in Dubbo, is not prepared to hang up her hues just because she's now living in aged care. "You've got to work the colour," she said. Mrs Ellison and her fellow aged-care residents are thriving in the spotlight of a new fashion initiative that has popped up at Ballina's RSL Lifecare Florence Price Gardens facility. Our Timeless Threads is the brainchild of nurse Maia Willow, who is combining her passion for vintage and pre-loved fashion with her experience as an aged carer. Ms Willow has been running fashion events for seniors across northern New South Wales since September last year. She brings her pop-up store into an aged-care facility, complete with racks of clothes for residents to buy. Ms Willow also stocks accessories such as hats, feather boas, parasols and jewels for those who want to try the items on and have some fun. Residents can also participate in parading the clothes and photo shoots, and Ms Willow runs workshops with residents and shows them how to create fashionable meal-time protectors (not bibs!) from scraps of disused fabric. "Our elderly are often not looked up to as the wisdom keepers that they are, and the inspiring stylish people who have lived through those eras," she said. She said she first had the idea for the fashion pop-ups while working as a nurse at a First Nations aged-care facility in Alice Springs. She and some of the other carers there decided to convert a shipping container that was being used to store clothing into an on-site op shop. One resident a day would be invited to come in to shop for clothing and get dressed up. She said the positive impact on the residents was obvious, and she realised other older people could benefit from similar experiences. After training as a nurse in the UK, Ms Willow gained Australian citizenship after working as a contract nurse here during the COVID-19 pandemic. She travelled from job to job in her campervan, kitted out with a trusty sewing machine so she could get creative with clothes whenever the mood struck. Florence Price Gardens aged care resident Florence Trotter said it was a joy to be able to browse the racks of clothes, scarves, beads, hair clips, hair bands and combs. "Most people can't get out to shop, so it's like bringing the shop to you," she said. "Everywhere I go, I love to browse and look, see what's new, what's old, what's interesting." Mrs Trotter said the event run by Ms Willow brightened the day of everyone who went along. "When something good comes on and everyone gets a laugh, it's really lovely," she said. Angie Waller-Royle-Woods and her mother were visiting her father when the pop-up shop came to visit, and said it was great to have some fun with him. "Today has been unbelievable," she said. "I look around and I have a laugh and a dance and I see how everyone, even if they are lying in a chair or a bed, they are just involved, they all love it." Felicity Durham, who helps out at the Our Timeless Threads events, said she got as much out of the fun as the people she dressed. "My favourite part is seeing the smiles on their faces as they see themselves in the mirror," she said.

The Next Generation celebrated by First Nations Australians during NAIDOC Week 2025

Ngarbal Gamilaraay artist Jeremy Morgan Worrall has long dreamt of designing a NAIDOC Week poster. This year, his artwork was finally selected as the festival's official artwork. "I've been in this competition every year for the past six years and this year I've been chosen. And it just felt like such an honour. And I just felt really proud of myself, but also proud of my family who's been supporting me. I was over the moon really. " Titled 'Ancestral Lines', the work depicts five figures, each representing a group of family members or ancestors. While the colours are contemporary, the elaborate designs are inspired by the traditions of his homelands in northern New South Wales. "Most of the time they are focused on the linework that can be found in tree scarring and shield making and burn painting and stuff like that. Below those characters are those kinds of lines that are meant to be moments in time and knowledge and experiences that they have learned that get passed down onto the next generation; and that influence that generation." The poster is a stunning visual reflection of this year's NAIDOC Week theme 'The Next Generation: Strength, Vision & Legacy'. For Jeremy, the next generation is testament to generations past. "What I wanted to try and show was that you can't really move forward without acknowledging the past and being aware of others that came before you that allowed you to be where you are today, and so I wanted a way to show that, and a way to honour my ancestors, and to show that connection and what I've learnt from them." Professor Lynette Riley is the chair of Aboriginal Education and Indigenous Studies at the University of Sydney; and co-chair of the NAIDOC Committee. She says - at a time when Indigenous young people are disproportionately represented in jails and detention centres - the committee wants to highlight the incredible potential of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander youth. "The things we were really distressed about is the way our youth is constantly diminished and demeaned in the media. We thought it was really important that we started to look at what it is that our young people bring to our society - the strength, the resilience they have. They are our future leaders, they are our legacy, and we want you to understand that." NAIDOC Week began as a protest movement, to draw attention to the oppressive laws and multiple injustices imposed on First Nations people. In 1938, as Australia celebrated 150 years since the First Fleet landing, Aboriginal activists staged a 'Day of Mourning', leading a march of more than 1,000 people in Sydney. The rally became an annual event, and in the 1950s, moved to July - no longer just a protest, but a celebration of Aboriginal culture. The National Aboriginal Day Observance Committee was formed soon after. In 1975 the day became a week, expanding in 1991 to recognise the distinct cultural histories of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. Professor Riley says Indigenous people are still fighting for justice. "We still do not have the equity and understanding in this country for Indigenous people. We still constantly have to fight for human rights and equity issues, that we still have the highest poverty levels; the lowest levels of education; the lowest of health standards." Today, the NAIDOC march takes place across several major cities, the culmination of a week of concerts, exhibition, workshops, sports matches and more across the country. Professor Riley says all Australians are invited. "So it is that personal interaction with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people at local regional and state level that is just so vital. You don't get to know about people, if you don't get to know Indigenous people personally." Other key aspects of NAIDOC week are educational resources for schools, and a national televised awards ceremony that celebrates First Nations individuals who have demonstrated excellence in their chosen field. Trailblazing activist and AFL legend Michael Long has already been named the winner of this year's National NAIDOC Lifetime Achievement Award. For poster artist Jeremy Morgan Worrall, this year's NAIDOC Week is a time for reflection and hope. "Part of realising that things are bad is sort of acknowledging that you have to be positive about it, no matter what because to do otherwise is just to give up. And we simply can't do that for our families, we always have to be strong for our families and our people. And I see mob everyday doing so well in life; and it's just so awesome to see how much of our mob are getting uplifted."
