Another Traitor Nabbed! Who Went Home on 'The Traitors' Episode 7 Tonight?
After a strong inaugural season in 2023, The Traitors really became THE must-watch TV sensation of 2024, not only becoming one of Peacock's most successful shows but also nabbing multiple Emmys. Now Alan Cumming has invited 23 new reality TV legends to his Scottish castle for midnight murders, devastating banishments and the chance to take home $250,000.
Last week, against all odds the Traitors skated by, axing both Bob Harper and Wes Bergmann on their bloody path. This week, with only 13 players left, however, the Faithfuls managed to chop a second Traitor. However, an abundance of Shields and another murderous twist has certainly shook up the game yet again.
🎬 🎬
Here's a recap of everything that happend on Episode 7 of The Traitors Season 3:
After coming directly for Boston Rob last week, Rob took his vengeance by convincing Carolyn Wiger and Danielle Reyes to murder the Big Brother winner. Derrick was a savvy player and it became clear that Rob was happier to chop a threat, even if suspicion would fall on him, rather than try to shift blame with a more off-the-wall kills.
Finally after leading the charge on the eliminations of Tony Vlachos, Bob the Drag Queen and Bergmann, Boston Rob couldn't convince the Faithfuls to vote with him for another round. While he valiantly (and fairly convincingly) tried to throw Britney Haynes under the bus, three wildcard votes from his allies and both of his fellow Traitors turning on him ultimately led to his demise.
The vote count:
Rob (7) — Tom, Britney, Carolyn, Sam, Ivar, Danielle, Gabby
Britney (2) — Ciara, Rob
Tom (2) — Chrishell, Dolores
Gabby (1) — Dylan

In this week's wedding-themed mission, the 12 remaining players were paired up, with half the cast earning Shields. Those who are safe from murder in Episode 8 are Sam Asghari, Lord Ivar Mountbatten, Ciara Miller, Reyes and Haynes. Boston Rob also earned a Shield, but was eliminated while Carolyn Wiger didn't earn a shield, but can't be murdered because she's a Traitor.
That leaves the potential murder victims as: Tom Sandoval, Dylan Efron, Dolores Catania, Chrishell Stause and Gabby Windey.
With 12 players eliminated, there remain 11 contestants in the hunt for the $250,000, with two as Traitors and nine as Faithfuls. The remaining players are:

Royal Family Cousin Has Strong Opinions on Meghan Markle Claiming 'Sussex' Name
Royal Family Cousin Has Strong Opinions on Meghan Markle Claiming 'Sussex' Name originally appeared on Parade. Sometimes royal tea gets spilled in the most unexpected places, and Lord Ivar Mountbatten just delivered a masterclass in aristocratic nomenclature that has royal watchers buzzing. Fresh off his victory, King Charles's second cousin couldn't help but weigh in on Meghan Markle's recent claim about her family name – and his correction is raising eyebrows across the pond. During a recent conversation with Mindy Kaling on With Love, Meghan, Meghan stated "You know I'm Sussex now," referring to her family name. But according to Mountbatten during a Town and Country interview, who knows a thing or two about royal protocols, she's "completely incorrect." The reality? Meghan's actual family name is Mountbatten-Windsor, the same surname used by Prince Harry and their children Archie and Lilibet. Sussex isn't a family name – it's a title. The distinction might seem subtle to us commoners, but in royal circles, it's apparently significant. "They are the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, but actually he's Harry Mountbatten-Windsor and she would be Meghan Mountbatten-Windsor," Mountbatten explained with the patience of someone who's spent a lifetime navigating these aristocratic intricacies. To illustrate his point, he referenced his own family: "My brother is the Marquess of Milford Haven, but his surname is Mountbatten, so he's called George Mountbatten, the Marquess of Milford Haven." This surname education comes courtesy of someone uniquely qualified to deliver it. As a descendant of Queen Victoria and the first openly gay member of the extended royal family, Mountbatten understands both tradition and the complexities of carving out your own identity within established institutions. Related: King Charles III's Reaction to Prince Louis Breaking Royal Protocol Is Breaking the Internet! The Mountbatten-Windsor name itself has fascinating royal history, combining Prince Philip's surname (Mountbatten) with the Windsor name adopted by King George V in 1917. Queen Elizabeth II established this naming convention in 1960 for her direct descendants. What makes this moment particularly interesting is Mountbatten's matter-of-fact delivery. Having just conquered reality television's most duplicitous game, he approached this royal correction with the same straightforward honesty that won over Traitors audiences. Whether Meghan's statement was a simple misunderstanding or intentional simplification for her American audience, one thing's clear: when it comes to royal protocol, there's always someone keeping score. 🎬SIGN UP for Parade's Daily newsletter to get the latest pop culture news & celebrity interviews delivered right to your inbox🎬 Royal Family Cousin Has Strong Opinions on Meghan Markle Claiming 'Sussex' Name first appeared on Parade on Jun 18, 2025 This story was originally reported by Parade on Jun 18, 2025, where it first appeared.

‘The Traitors' U.K. Contestant and Reality TV Marketer on How Unscripted Hits Can Stand Out
In an age where everything shines, how do you make something truly sparkle? That question was the starting point of a marketing-centric reality TV keynote on Thursday, the final day of Conecta Fiction & Entertainment in Cuenca, Spain. Charlotte Berman, business director at U.K. agency Red Bee Creative, was the speaker who stepped up to discuss the topic, bringing along a surprising bit of real-life experience. After all, she was a contestant on the third season of the U.K. version of the global hit format The Traitors. More from The Hollywood Reporter Chris Brown Pleads Not Guilty to U.K. Assault Charge Why Rachel Zegler Has London Raving - and Ranting - About Her 'Evita' Stage-to-Street Performance Trump, and His Long Shadow, Draw References at Conecta in Spain Despite Focus on Business at Hand Showing TV spots from the likes of Love Island in the U.K., Survivor in the U.S., Bake Off Italia, The Voice U.K., X Factor in Norway, and The Celebrity Traitors, coming to the BBC in the fall, she shared some tips for marketing departments. Berman explained that creative cast reveals and launch spots are key to building excitement among fans of reality franchises. She also highlighted the importance of iconic brand properties, which she described as 'recognizable iconography.' As strong examples, she mentioned the chairs featured in The Voice or the outfits, shields, settings and torches of The Traitors, which give the show a consistent 'dark and mysterious' feel, she said. This makes the show immediately recognizable, the expert emphasized. The expert suggested that dating and relationship shows these days often lack this distinctive look and feel. Showing a graphic with images of various shows, she said: 'They've all got good-looking groups of people clustered together with palm trees and maybe a heart. And if not, then [there is a] purple background. I don't really know why, but they all look the same.' Berman called out one show that feels different. 'If one of these titles had to stand out because of its consistent use of brand codes, it would be The Bachelor,' she said. 'Crucially, they have this commitment to the roses, which are everywhere in The Bachelor. It's really, really consistent.' Berman also highlighted how gamification has become more and more important in reality show marketing. 'It's a really important plank in a bridge for a successful reality show. These days, increasingly reality brands are involving their audiences with the ability to play along or experience the game in some way or form. Love Island has had this very successful Hotel Hideaway game. Whenever they launch a new room or villa, it's to mass fanfare. And of course, you can buy the bottles, the suitcases, the phone cases, everything, in the Love Island shop.' The Traitors also has all sorts of games and interactive offerings, including in-person activations, as do other hits. Concluded Berman: 'It's just amazing how much these formats have been gamified. And all of these are just proof that there's this kind of expectation now to create brand verticals for reality TV shows. We need to further amplify that consumer experience.' The session was presented by The Global Entertainment Marketing Academy of Arts & Sciences (GEMA), a global non-profit association of marketers and creatives 'united by a shared desire to innovate, captivate, and inspire.' Conecta 2025 saw executives from the likes of Warner Bros. Discovery, Brazil's Globo, Gaumont Television, production giant Banijay, and NBCUniversal Telemundo discuss their programming plans and the state of the TV industry.
