Season 4 of The Traitors is set to launch on Peacock on January 8, but major spoilers have already leaked online, revealing the identities of the initial Traitors and the first contestants eliminated from the game. The information was first shared by Moviedelic and quickly spread across Reddit, much to the dismay of fans who want to experience the season’s twists without prior knowledge.
The Core Traitors Revealed
According to leaked details, the primary Traitors for Season 4 are:
- Candiace Dillard Bassett (The Real Housewives of Potomac )
- Lisa Rinna (The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills )
- Rob Rausch (Love Island USA )
These three will be working together to deceive and eliminate fellow contestants. The leak also indicates that there is a fourth, Secret Traitor whose identity will be revealed later in the season. This “lone wolf” will submit nominations for elimination independently, while the other three Traitors make the final decision.
First Eliminations: Who Leaves Early?
The first three episodes will see the following eliminations:
- Episode 1: No eliminations. The game begins with all contestants intact.
- Episode 2: Ian Terry is murdered by the Traitors, and Porsha Williams is banished by the Faithful after making suspicious comments.
- Episode 3: Rob Cesternino is murdered, and Donna Kelce is banished.
The reason for Ian Terry’s murder is that the Traitors view his past reality TV success (Big Brother) as a threat to their strategy. Porsha Williams’ banishment is due to her raising doubts about the number of Traitors in the castle.
The early leaks highlight the high-stakes deception at the heart of The Traitors. The presence of a Secret Traitor adds another layer of complexity, forcing the core Traitors to manage both external threats and internal uncertainties.
The show’s format relies on keeping players guessing, but the premature reveal of key details underscores the show’s appeal – the tension between trust, betrayal, and strategic gameplay.
