(Warning: Spoilers ahead for Season 3 of “The Traitors”…)
Season 3 of “The Traitors” has finally arrived after months of anticipation, and it’s exceeded expectations. The first three episodes delivered plenty of twists and jaw-dropping moments as four cast members’ dreams of winning the $250,000 ended quickly.
The latest season premiered on Peacock Jan. 9 and introduced fans to the initial 21 cast members tasked with adding as much money to their prize pot while avoiding being banished or murdered by their fellow contestants.
Among the cast, which TODAY exclusively announced in June, were “Big Brother” legends Danielle Reyes and Britney Haynes, deceptive “Survivor” winners Tony Vlachos and Jeremy Collins and reality television favorites Chrishell Stause and Gabby Windey.
After host Alan Cumming made his grand entrance on horseback and welcomed the cast to the show’s Scottish castle, the game immediately began.
“Survivor” star Rob Mariano, who was previously revealed as a cast member, was unveiled as a masked member of Cumming’s entourage. The rest of the contestants then had to choose if they wanted Rob to be exiled or join them and oust someone else.
The decision was the first of many ruthless choices made in Episodes 1 through 3 by both Faithfuls and Traitors. By the end of Episode 3, two contestants had been banished while two more were secretly murdered in the night by the Traitors.
Episode 3 ended with a cliffhanger as the Traitors plotted to kill their next victim. A teaser for Episode 4 shows the house erupting into chaos as the cast try to figure out the Traitors’ identities.
So, who has been eliminated from the show so far? Find out below. Then, check back every week as the episodes are released at 9 p.m. ET/ 6 p.m. PT each Thursday to see who else was booted from the show — and if they were a Faithful or Traitor.
‘The Traitors’ Season 3 eliminated contestants
Dorinda Medley
Status: Faithful
Dorinda Medley made a costly mistake in Episode 1 when she decided to sacrifice her safety in the challenge to help the team complete the task. After her selfless act was unappreciated by the rest of the cast, The “Real Housewives of New York City” star bickered with British royal Lord Ivar Mountbatten and a few others, placing a target on her back. The Traitors pounced on the opportunity and decided to make her their first victim, killing her off in Episode 2.
Wells Adams
Status: Faithful
During Episode 2, at the first roundtable of Season 3, Wells Adams had the tables turned on him. He initially planned to call out “The Real Housewives of Potomac” star Robyn Dixon as a potential Traitor following an awkward interaction between them earlier. But, she proved to be more convincing and reflected the spotlight onto him instead. “The Bachelorette” alum was banished after receiving a majority of the votes. Before he left, he revealed that he was a Faithful.
Chanel Ayan
Status: Faithful
Chanel Ayan seemed, admittedly, unprepared for the duplicity she would face on “The Traitors.” Like Dorinda, she erroneously chose to get off the boat in Episode 1. Then, she struggled after Wells’ elimination as he was one of her closest friends and allies in the house. In Episode 3, the Traitors decided to murder another housewife to create more confusion in the castle. As “The Real Housewives of Dubai” star learned her fate, she became emotional and questioned how the Traitors could be so cruel.
