It's finally official, Traitors fans! After months of speculation, the line-up for the celebrity version of The Traitors has finally been confirmed by the BBC - and we couldn't be more excited to see these stars at the roundtable! While some stars were sadly just rumours (why did Courteney Cox's name keep popping up?!), there is an Apple TV+ star, a popular singer, a ITV crime drama veteran and many more…
The announcement read: "The celebrities will play the ultimate game of detection, backstabbing and trust, in the hope of winning a cash prize up to £100,000 for a charity of their choice." Speaking about the show, Claudia said: "We’re incredibly lucky these brilliant people have said yes. I’d love to say we’ll take it easy on them and they’ll just wander round the castle and eat toast for a couple of weeks but that would be a lie."
