Story summary

In the penultimate episode of The Celebrity Traitors on October 29, actress Sharon Rooney was murdered and comedian Joanne McNally was banished. The traitors, including social media star King Kenny, TV presenter Maya Jama, and comedian James Acaster, targeted both contestants to create confusion among the faithfuls. During the roundtable, McNally was first banished before Rooney found out she had been marked for elimination. The final episode aired on October 30, with Sebastian Croft and Rom winning the show by eliminating the last remaining traitor, King Kenny. The winners expressed relief at no longer having to keep their victory a secret.
