The Traitors fans slam ‘worst winners ever’ as Faithfuls steal eye-watering cash prize

Faithfuls Leanne Quigley and Jake Brown have been crowned the winners of the third series of The Traitors 2025.

After four weeks of game play, suspicion, and teamwork the team have successfully banished all the Traitors and will split the eye-watering cash prize between each other after wrapping up the explosive final.

After watching the explosive scenes hit the airwaves, fans flooded to X – formerly known as Twitter – to share their complaints online.

One user penned: “I’m sorry but Jake and Leanne are the worst winners in history #TheTraitorsUK”. The latest series, hosted by the belove presenter Claudia Winkleman, has been equally as gripping and entertaining as the preceding series.

Some of the series highlights have included the hilarious antics from fan-favourite Linda Rands and the brilliantly bizarre tactics from Charlotte – who has had quite the journey on the show.

At the start of the series, the brunette beauty, 33, began as a Faithful, but was later recruited by Minah Shannon as a Traitor and has successfully gone under the radar amongst her peers.

The call centre manager was banished on Wednesday’s dramatic round table (January 22) just two days before the final. The 29-year-old had survived 10 days in the castle after she was picked to be a Traitor by Claudia in the very first episode.

But in a major twist, Charlotte threw her teammate under the bus after she was recruited earlier in the series. She cast the deciding vote to banish Minah and then recruited Freddie to join the dark side.

She went on to decieve him too, after convincing him to murder Leanne, despite knowing Leanne had a shield protecting her from murder.

This raised suspicions about Freddie amongst the Faithfuls, as he was one of only two people who did not know she had a sheild. But The Faithfuls were not convinced and ultimateley voted Charlotte off in the final elimination round.

The explosive finale of The Traitors saw Faithfuls Leanne, Francesca, Jake, and Alexander gathered around the fire pit for the game’s climactic roundtable. As tensions reached boiling point, the group turned on Alexander, unanimously voting him out and bringing his journey to a shocking end.

With Alexander gone, the remaining trio struggled to maintain trust, but Jake and Leanne ultimately turned on Francesca, casting her out after doubting her loyalty in the aftermath of her heated blowout with Charlotte earlier in the game. Both admitted they couldn’t risk keeping her around, suspecting she might be a Traitor.

Finally, only Jake and Leanne were left standing. In an unexpected twist, the pair decided to call an end to the game, opting to split the final prize pot of £94,600 evenly. Both walked away with a cool £47,300 each.
