Six data points paint the outline of Tommy Little’s public profile. Many details that fans ask about — salary, exact birthplace, relationship status — remain private.
| Attribute | Value |

| Full Name | Thomas Little |
| Date of Birth | 23 February 1985 |
| Age | 40 (as of 2025) |
| Nationality | Australian |
| Occupation | Comedian, writer, actor, radio presenter |
| Known For | Co-hosting Carrie & Tommy |
| Height | Not publicly disclosed |
| Net Worth | Not publicly disclosed |
| Ethnicity | Not publicly disclosed |
| Relationship Status | Not publicly confirmed |
Is Tommy Little in a relationship?
No current relationship has been publicly confirmed. In April 2023, Little told radio hosts Hughesy, Ed & Erin that he was single and had been using the celebrities-only dating app Raya (New Idea (women’s lifestyle magazine)). Earlier, during the COVID lockdowns in Melbourne, he was living with environmental activist Natalie Kyriacou, but that partnership ended, reportedly around the same time as the city’s lockdowns (New Idea (women’s lifestyle magazine)).
Who is Tommy’s girlfriend?
No current girlfriend has been publicly identified. Little has mentioned that his constant touring schedule makes sustaining relationships difficult (New Idea (women’s lifestyle magazine)).
Does Tommy Little have a partner?
As of the latest interviews (2023), he stated he was single and not actively looking for a long-term partner (New Idea (women’s lifestyle magazine)). Future plans, however, include marriage and children — topics he jokes about in his stand-up (news.com.au (Australian news outlet)).
Little’s relationship status is a void that fans and media fill with guesswork — but the only solid data is a string of past reported partners and his own admission that he’s currently single.
The implication: Little keeps his private life off the record despite public speculation.
Does Tommy Little have ADHD?
Yes. In 2023, on Carrie & Tommy, Little revealed he had been formally diagnosed with ADHD (New Idea (women’s lifestyle magazine)). He added that people had pointed out possible signs for years before the diagnosis was confirmed. In an earlier profile, he joked that his mother gave him a “bad diagnosis” of being easily distracted (My Weekly Preview (Sunshine Coast lifestyle magazine)). Since going public, he has spoken openly about how ADHD affects his work and relationships.
What has Tommy Little said about his ADHD?
“I think I learnt I’m a bit more capable than I thought I was,” he wrote in a 2025 Instagram post reflecting on personal growth. On radio, he shared that structuring his day around a demanding broadcast schedule actually helps him manage symptoms. He recommends others who suspect they have ADHD to seek a professional assessment rather than self-diagnose.
Little’s public ADHD disclosure — shared through a mass-market radio platform — reaches millions of Australians who might otherwise not hear a relatable, male comedian’s perspective on neurodiversity.
The pattern: his openness normalizes neurodiversity for a wide audience.
What happened to Tommy Little?
Little hasn’t “disappeared” — in fact, 2025 finds him busier than ever. He is touring nationally with a new stand-up show titled Namaste the f*** away from me, and continues to co-host Carrie & Tommy on the Hit Network every weekday (Wikipedia (the free encyclopedia)). In early 2025, he turned 40, a milestone that he incorporated into his comedy material (Now To Love (Australian entertainment magazine)).
Did Tommy Little have a health scare?
There is no public record of a major health scare beyond the ADHD diagnosis, which was a mental-health revelation rather than a physical emergency. Little has described the diagnosis as “liberating” because it explained lifelong patterns.
