Sebastian Croft says keeping the secret was 'killing me' as he and Romesh Ranganathan celebrate their Celebrity Traitors win

Romesh Ranganathan, 48, and Sebastian Croft, 24, split an £83,000 prize pot between their chosen charities after being crowned winners of Celebrity Traitors, with the finale drawing 11.2 million live viewers — the most-watched show of 2026 so far. Ranganathan invited Croft onto his BBC Radio 2 show the morning after the final to celebrate, with Croft saying he woke up feeling 'a light sense that I don't have to keep the secret anymore.'

The pair nearly gave themselves away weeks before the final, dining together in central London while the whole restaurant told them 'we like you on Traitors and hope you win.'

Traitor Maya Jama, 32, skipped the post-final Uncloaked reunion entirely, with host Ed Gamble telling the audience she was 'away filming' Guy Ritchie's 'The Gentlemen' series three.
