The most anticipated TV shows of 2025
USA TODAY TV critic Kelly Lawler shares her top 5 TV shows she is most excited for this year
Warning: Major spoilers for the third season of “The Traitors” are ahead.
The messiest show on TV has concluded its third season and fans finally know who won.
“The Traitors” Season 3 finale picked right off from last week’s vicious cliffhanger, where fans were unclear whether Britney Haynes would betray her fellow “Big Brother” alum and traitor Danielle Reyes. And Britney did just that, voting out Danielle once again in a cinematic betrayal typically reserved for melodramas.
The episode also revealed who won last week’s mission and had the power of “the seer,” a new twist giving someone the ability to see whether a player of their choice is a faithful or traitor. Britney ended up winning, so she invited Gabby Windey to a private meeting where “The Bachelorette” star unveiled she was a faithful to Britney, who already knew that.
But rather than try to frame Gabby as a traitor, she told the group the truth, instead going after “Down to Earth” producer Dylan Efron. What ensued after was just as chaotic and dramatic as the rest of the season.
Who won ‘The Traitors’ Season 3?
Gabby Windey, Dylan Efron, Dolores Catania and Lord Ivar Mountbatten won “The Traitors” Season 3 as faithfuls. They are the largest batch of winners in the show’s three-season run.
At the final roundtable the group unanimously banished Britney in a 4-1 vote. While she could not reveal her identity to the group, the faithfuls had finally banished every traitor.
The group decided to end the game and successfully split the prize pot of $204,300.
Who is Dylan Efron?
Dylan Efron is an actor, producer, outdoor enthusiast and brother of “The Iron Claw” star Zac Efron.
The 33-year-old recently produced the documentary series “Down to Earth with Zac Efron” and has previously worked as a stuntman in film production.
Who is Dolores Catania?
Dolores Catania, 54, is a philanthropist and entrepreneur best known for starring in “The Real Housewives of New Jersey.” The Paterson, New Jersey native is a mother to Gabby and Frankie Catania, both in their 20s.
Who is Gabby Windey?
Illinois native Gabby Windey, 34, is TV personality and newlywed, previously appearing on both “The Bachelor” Season 26 and “The Bachelorette” Season 19.
She hosts the “Long Winded with Gabby Windey” podcast and was previously an NFL cheerleader for the Denver Broncos. During the finale episode, she said she would use the prize money for her wedding and revealed on Instagram Wednesday that she married comedian Robby Hoffman on Jan. 11.
Who is Lord Ivar Mountbatten?
Lord Ivar Mountbatten, 61, is a British aristocrat and geologist from London best known as the second cousin of King Charles III. He has been married to James Coyle since 2018.
Who is the host of ‘The Traitors’?
Scottish actor Alan Cumming has hosted all three seasons “The Traitors” (U.S.)
Last year, he won the Emmy for best reality host for the show’s second season, which also took the award for the best reality competition program.
“I am the host, but I’m playing a character of a host, very much so,” Cumming told USA TODAY in January. “I don’t even sound like that; I put on a funny accent as well as a look and tone. I don’t go around quoting Shakespeare all the time, and I certainly don’t boss people around. And I’m not so aggressive as this sort of stern castle daddy.”
Where is ‘The Traitors’ filmed?
“The Traitors” is filmed at the Ardross Castle in the Scottish Highlands.
Who were the traitors in Season 3?
There were a total of five traitors in Season 3: “Big Brother” finalist Danielle Reyes; “RuPaul’s Drag Race” winner Bob the Drag Queen; “Survivor” finalist Carolyn Wiger and “Survivor” winner “Boston” Rob Mariano.
“Big Brother” contestant Britney Haynes began the game as a faithful before later being recruited as a traitor toward the season’s end.
Who won ‘The Traitors’ Season 1 and 2?
Four-time “Survivor” contestant Ciree Fields was the first person to win the U.S. version of “The Traitors” as a traitor. She left faithfuls Andie Thurmond and Quentin Jiles flabbergasted when she revealed her identity and won all the money.
“The Challenge” contestants Trishelle Cannatella and CT Tamburello both won “The Traitors” Season 2 as faithfuls. The final four included “Below Deck” star Kate Chastain (a traitor) and “Shahs of Sunset” star Mercedes Javid (a faithful), who were both banished.
