The Traitors Australia has officially returned to screens with a brand new host and a starry collection of celebrity castmates. The third season of the reality show premiered this week, and there’s already been one reality star booted before the shenanigans could even begin.
As a refresher, The Traitors brings together 22 participants for a game of social deduction much like Mafia or Werewolf, against the backdrop of a castle where they all reside. The celebs are assigned as either Traitors or Faithfuls, with the first group working together to slowly banish or “murder” the Faithfuls without being detected.
This year brings a fresh twist with brand new host Gretel Killeen and castmates including Australian Idol’s Ian Dickson, The Bachelor’s Alex Nation, and The Real Housewives’ Krissy Marsh and Gamble Breaux. Each episode, one person from the 22-strong cast will be eliminated en route to the grand prize of a whopping $250,000.
Which brings us to the ultimate question; who has been eliminated from season three of The Traitors Australia so far? Read on to get all the juice!
Cam Merchant
Former Married At First Sight (MAFS) participant Cam Merchant was unfortunately the first to be sent packing from The Traitors mansion in the very first episode. Making matters worse, Cam was given the boot just 20 minutes into the season three premiere, after his co-star Shane Gould — who the cast dubbed ‘the most virtuous’ — was given an ultimatum of self-eliminating or evicting someone else.
Choosing the latter, Shane landed on Cam — who was told to “leave the mansion immediately.” He quite literally hadn’t even entered the manor and already his time on The Traitors. Peace out, Cam!
That’s the only elimination we’ve gotten so far in The Traitors’ third season, but with an eviction each episode, there’s plenty more where that came from.
The third season of Traitors Australia airs on Tuesdays and Wednesdays at 7:30pm on Network 10 and 10Play.
