Carrie Bickmore was welcomed back to The Project on Tuesday night in a downpour of confetti. The television and radio star, who quit the Channel Ten show back in 2022, returned to her old stomping ground for a good cause. The 44-year-old was on the desk for a ten minute segment that closed the show - but only as a guest.

Another person watching at home chimed in: 'Just like old times'. Carrie announced her departure from The Project after 12 years on air in October, 2022. She had been absent for a three month 'sabbatical' with her family in London earlier that year, before returning to the panel in July, only to quit in October. Three months after leaving the show, Carrie announced she'd split from her partner of 11 years Chris Walker. 'It's with immense sadness that Chris and I have decided to separate,' she wrote in a statement on Instagram. 'While this is a tough time, our focus is on parenting, loving and supporting our three children Ollie, Evie and Addie with everything that we've got. 'They are doing great. We won't be making any further comment.' Carrie is now the host of the Carrie & Tommy show on the Hit Network alongside Little. Their radio show has dominated the national ratings survey last year. The radio duo took out Australia's #1 Drive Show in Melbourne and Brisbane during survey four, making it their third consecutive win. It was the best result the Hit Network has received for the Drive slot since 2018, and the best result in Drive for Brisbane B105 since 2010. 'We are stunned and stoked by this result – thank you, Australia, for making us #1 and tuning in every day for our crazy antics, laughs, and fun,' the co-hosts said. 'This unreal result is a testament to our phenomenally hard-working team, and our wider team across the Hit Network. 'We can't wait for you to see the exciting things we've got planned for the rest of 2024.' Carrie also landed a voiceover role on popular Australian children's show Bluey last year. The TV presenter shared a video to Instagram of her children reacting to her voice in the show. 'Career and parenting highlight... My girls watching my two seconds of fame on the latest episode of Bluey,' she wrote. 'What a genuine thrill to be a part of such an incredible Aussie show. I think 'Terrier's mum' needs to be a regular character.' Bluey, dubbed Australia's most popular children's TV show, follows the adventures of 'a loveable, inexhaustible six year-old Blue Heeler dog' along with her family which includes her mum, dad and younger sister, and her friends.

Carrie Bickmore reveals she's heading into the South African jungle after persistent rumours she will appear on I'm A Celebrity
Carrie Bickmore has long been rumoured to be joining popular Channel 10 show I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! Australia. And now, the radio and television presenter, 44, has confirmed she will be heading to the South African jungle - but not for the reality program. The Carrie & Tommy radio star has signed up for a half marathon at this year's The Big Five Marathon through the Entabeni private game reserve. She told Confidential on Thursday, the big five African animals 'will make me run fast, that is for sure'. 'Last year they had to delay the start of the race because there was a lion roaming around. I've decided not to read up too much about it because I've decided if I read about it, I won't go,' she said. 'I'm just going to go there with my eyes closed and open them at the startline and see what happens.' The former Project star will be completing her half-marathon alongside Ellidy Pullin, Olivia Molly Rogers, Sam Wood, Laura Enever, Trent Cotchin, and Merrick Watts. Carrie and her crew of famous friends will attempt to raise money for the Carrie's Beanies 4 Brain Cancer Foundation, which she set up after her late husband, Greg Lange, lost his battle with brain cancer. Carrie announced she would continue Greg's legacy with the charity during her Gold Logie acceptance speech in 2015. Despite his terminal condition, Carrie and Greg married in 2005 when she was just 25 and had a son, Oliver. All runners will be monitored by helicopters and armed rangers to ensure their safety in the game park. Last month, Carrie gave her social media followers a sneak peak into her training regime for the half-marathon. The Adelaide-born star lifted weights in each hand as she showed her commitment to building strength. She also took fans through a series of squat positions in the social media footage. The Carrie & Tommy radio star has signed up for a half marathon at this year's The Big Five Marathon through the Entabeni private game reserve Carrie cryptically hinted at something 'big' in the pipeline in her caption. 'Time to get strong for this next big adventure,' she wrote. 'Don't laugh at how small my weights are. I have no upper body strength.' Last year, Carrie completed a half marathon at the Great Wall of China which involved climbing 5164 stairs and competing alongside 2500 runners from over 60 nations.
