Carrie Bickmore and Tommy Little have reportedly made a ‘secret pact’ not to appear on celebrity shows together.
The radio co-hosts are said to have been approached numerous times to appear on I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! Australia but have turned down the offers.
The duo, best known for their Hit Network radio show Carrie & Tommy, are reportedly ‘terrified’ they could lose their high-paying jobs by appearing in the jungle.
According to Yahoo! Lifestyle, the pair believe that the amount of time away filming for the Channel Ten reality TV series could jeopardise their lucrative radio careers.
Carrie, 44, and Tommy, 39, would reportedly want a much higher sum than has been offered to appear on the show and they are said to have a ‘pact’ against signing up.
A TV casting producer told the publication: ‘I would say that they are looking for more than a quarter of a million dollars each and to be honest they would be worth every penny. Everyone has a number that works for them.’

‘Carrie and Tommy have really cashed in on their chemistry – which is obvious on the weekly drive show,’ they added of their on-air success.
‘The whole, ”are they dating or aren’t they?” has been a huge draw card for them both.’
Daily Mail Australia has contacted Carrie and Tommy’s representatives for comment.
Carrie and Tommy have been the subject of romance rumours ever since they hosted their HIT FM radio show from Paris, France, last year.
Just last month, the pair were spotted cuddling up for a photo behind-the-scenes 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 his split from girlfriend Natalie Kyriacou in 2021.
Tommy rushed to Carrie’s side when she confirmed her break-up, leading insiders to speculate their friendship could evolve into something more.
Carrie announced her split from Chris in an Instagram post in January 2022, saying the pair would co-parent their three children, Ollie, 16, Evie, eight, and Adelaide, five.

‘It’s with immense sadness that Chris and I have decided to separate,’ she wrote.
‘While this is a tough time, our focus is on parenting, loving and supporting our three children Ollie, Evie and Addie with everything we’ve got.’
The radio co-hosts have also had a hugely successful year with their drive-time radio show.
In August, Carrie and Tommy was once again named as the number one national drive show in Australia.
The Hit Network show nabbed an 11.1 per cent share in Australia, securing the top spot for the fourth time in a row.
The pair said of the results: ‘We are so lucky to have such a hard-working team and incredible listeners who continue to drive us to unbelievable results.
‘Thank you, Australia, for making us #1 for the fourth time in a row.
‘We’re having an absolute blast every afternoon, and we love sharing in the fun with listeners around the country.’
Hitting the number one spot made it the pair’s fourth consecutive win in the ratings and the best result the Hit Network has received for its drive slot since 2018.
