The two Newcastle Knights stars at the centre of an awkward TV moment have seemingly patched things up.

Newcastle footy star Bradman Best was embarrassed on live television over the weekend after a cringeworthy exchange with NRLW star Millie Boyle - the wife of his teammate, Adam Elliott.

The 22-year-old Knights centre was being questioned by Boyle - who also works for Channel Nine - after the 30-10 victory over the Dragons when events took a cringeworthy turn.

As their chat ended, Boyle said, 'Thank you very much, Braddy,' and tapped him on the shoulder.

Best reacted by trying to grab Boyle by the waist and moving in to kiss her on the cheek, only for her to back off slightly and tell him, 'Go and put a shirt on and, um... we'll chat to someone else. Congrats on the win.'

Fans predicted that the incredibly awkward exchange could lead to some interesting conversations in the Knights locker room. 

But judging by Elliott and Best's respective Instagram accounts, there is no friction following the awkward encounter.

The pair both posted identical shots from the beach at roughly the same time on Tuesday, indicating they had gone together. Best's dog was in his shot uploaded to the social media platform.
