Donna Kelce, Monet X Change, Eric Nam & More Join ‘The Traitors' Season 4 Cast
Peacock revealed the cast for the fourth season of The Traitors on Friday (June 13), including Donna Kelce, Monet X Change, Eric Nam and more.
In a video posted to social media, host Alan Cumming unveiled the cast by deliciously teasing, 'Ah, dear me … what treachery awaits us this season? The fates whisper of betrayal. Backstabbing. And the occasional dagger in the dark. Let us see whose murderous destinies are forever entwined in my castle walls: the cards never lie. People on the other hand? Constantly.'

The hit reality show will be Mama Kelce's first TV appearance after she starred in a pair of Hallmark Channel holiday movies in 2024. Meanwhile, Monet X Change will be following in the well-heeled footsteps of fellow RuPaul's Drag Race winner Bob the Drag Queen, who also happens to be his co-host on their popular Sibling Rivalry podcast, and Nam becomes the first K-pop idol to compete on the series.
After (spoiler alert!) being the very first contestant in the castle murdered by Bob and the rest of the Traitors last season, Dorinda Medley will also get a much-deserved second shot to play the game, joining fellow Bravolebrities Lisa Rinna, Candiace Dillard Bassett, Porsha Williams and Caroline Stanbury of the Real Housewives franchise and Top Chef winner-turned-host Kristen Kish.
Of course, there are plenty of other competition show alumni as well, which is sure to set up the now-signature 'Gamers vs. Housewives' rivalry in the castle. Gamers to watch out for amid the lochs and highlands this season include Survivor stars Rob Cesternino, Yam Yam Arocho and Natalie Anderson, as well as Big Brother's Tiffany Mitchell and Ian Terry.
Meanwhile, Bachelor Nation alum Colton Underwood and Stephen Colletti of Laguna Beach: The Real Orange County and One Tree Hill fame are both obvious contenders to fill the hunky role in the castle established by Peter Weber and Dylan Efron in past seasons. And Olympic figure skaters Tara Lipinski and Johnny Weir will add a dose of athleticism to the show's endurance-testing physical challenges along with Mark Ballas of Dancing With the Stars.
Other famous faces rounding out the season 4 cast include actor Michael Rapaport, comedian Ron Funches and Rob Rausch and Maura Higgins of Love Island.
While a release date for the upcoming season of The Traitors has yet to be announced, expect the murders, banishments and parade of tartan to begin imminently as the 23 contestants descend on Ardross Castle in the Scottish Highlands.

'The Traitors' Is Coming Back for Season 4: Everything to Know
'The Traitors' Is Coming Back for Season 4: Everything to Know originally appeared on Parade. Season 3 of The Traitors may have just ended a few months ago, but we're already ready for Season 4! Peacock's Emmy Award-winning reality TV sensation became a surprise success after its winter release back in 2023. But since then it's slowly built up quite the fan base. The US version of the show, hosted by Alan Cumming has been THE water cooler TV show of 2025, becoming streaming's most watched reality competition series yet again. Season 4 has begun filming but we won't see any Faithfuls or Traitors on our TV screens for quite some time. That doesn't mean we're not thinking ahead though. Will there be a Season 4? When will it air? Who will be in the cast? Will Cumming succeed in casting Martha Stewart or the Spice Girls? Here's everything we know about The Traitors Season 4. 🎬 🎬 Yes! Cheers to Marcus and Cheers to The Traitors (we promise, it's not weird). On Aug. 14, 2024, ahead of Season 3's release, Peacock announced that the show would be returning for Seasons 4 and 5. The news was far from shocking given how successful the series has been to date, but now Peacock has confirmed a fourth round. Season 4 of The Traitors hasn't announced its premiere date yet. But all three past seasons of the show have premiered in early January, so we'll likely see Season 4 hitting Peacock in early 2026. You can watch Seasons 1, 2 and 3 of The Traitors exclusively on Peacock. Season 4 will air there as well? Related: The rules for Season 4 will likely work similarly to the rules for Season 1-3. A group of contestants (now comprised solely of reality TV celebs unlike Season 1) will enter the Scottish mansion where one group will be designated as "Traitors." The remaining players will be the "Faithful." Each week the Traitors will be given the opportunity to "murder" one of their fellow players, eliminating them from the game. Then at the end of each week, the remaining contestants will vote to "banish" one of the remaining players in hopes of eliminating a Traitor. Along the way, the group will amass a prize pot of cash in challenges. At the end of the game, if the Faithfuls have eliminated all the Traitors, they will split the prize pot, but if a Traitor remains, they will take home the whole pot. Yes! The Emmy Award-winning host will indeed be returning for Season 4 of the show. He's a producer as well as a host so it would seem unlikely that he'd part ways from the franchise anytime soon. Related: Peacock announced the cast of Season 4 on June 13, 2025 ahead of the show's filming. The cast includes the following: Yes. Season 4 of The Traitors will stream on Peacock like Seasons 1-3. No. Since Season 4 hasn't finished filming yet, there is not a trailer. We likely won't see one until late 2025. Yes! In August 2024, Peacock renewed The Traitors for an additional two seasons with Alan Cumming attached to host. Related: For the first time in The Traitors history, Season 3 ended with four winners. The four Faithfuls all voted to end the game in the first round of the Fire of Truth, which left them splitting the prize pot. There are currently 3 seasons of The Traitors that have been released, with another two seasons scheduled to arrive in the coming years. Related: Yes! At the Emmys, The Traitors has scooped up three awards. Not only did it win Outstanding Casting for a Reality Program at the 2023 Emmys (which were passed out in 2024), but Alan Cumming earned an Emmy for Outstanding Host for a Reality or Reality Competition Program and the show won Outstanding Reality Competition Program at the 2024 Emmys (also passed out in 2024).'The Traitors' Is Coming Back for Season 4: Everything to Know first appeared on Parade on Jun 13, 2025 This story was originally reported by Parade on Jun 13, 2025, where it first appeared.

From ‘Housewives' overload to the ‘shadiest queens' alliance: The dish on ‘The Traitors' Season 4 lineup
Welcome to Reality Derby, Gold Derby's weekly deep dive into all things reality TV, hosted by senior editors Marcus James Dixon and Denton Davidson. Watch the video above. The cast of The Traitors Season 4 was unveiled on Friday, with a whopping 23 reality TV stars and notable figures about to compete for up to $250K. Among the roster are some of our favorite former gamers from Survivor and Big Brother, a pair of sassy Olympic figure skaters, and a whopping five women from The Real Housewives. More from GoldDerby 'The Americas' producers on NBC's ambitious docuseries, Earth's most varied landscapes, and 'absolute joy' working with Tom Hanks Inside the comedy pressure cooker: How 'SNL50: Beyond Saturday Night' exposed the madness behind the magic of 'Saturday Night Live' 'The Traitors' Season 4 casts a different Rob from 'Survivor,' a K-pop star, and Taylor Swift's potential future mother-in-law "I do feel like this is a little Real Housewives heavy," Davidson declares. "It's just not a show that I follow. And I understand the fan base is massive. So, the fact that they keep inviting more and more back, it clearly means that it's doing well for them. It's just not my wheelhouse. And they don't know how to play the game!" Says Dixon, "I really think that one of the Housewives are going to be a Traitor this year, because we did not get one last year in Season 3. In Season 2, we had Phaedra Parks, one of the best Traitors ever." The Housewives in this cycle are Dorinda Medley (returning from Season 2), Candiace Dillard Bassett, Caroline Stanbury, Lisa Rinna, and Porsha Williams. They both openly wonder if returning contestant Dorinda might be a Traitor this time around, since she was a Faithful last year. "If I was there, I would immediately target her again," laughs Davidson. "Poor Dorinda! Because they're going to think, 'Of course, she's coming back as a Traitor.'"for Churchill Downs When Davidson initially saw the cast list, he felt "meh," until he noticed Olympic figure skaters Tara Lipinski and Johnny Weir in the lineup. He explains, "These are two people I didn't expect to be on a reality TV show — not because they don't have the personality, but because it just wasn't on my radar. Tara Lipinski was an Olympic gold medalist, and Johnny Weir is a very eccentric male figure skater, and they are two of the shadiest queens that do the commentary for the Winter Olympics. They're like every bestie pairing you would see in West Hollywood ... and it's going to be hilarious if one of them is actually a Traitor." Survivor star Rob Cesternino being cast on The Traitors is a big "F you" to the long-running CBS reality TV show, Dixon says. "He was in the running for Survivor 50, and I guess at the last moment he didn't get the call. And so The Traitors swoops in two weeks later, and they're like, 'OK, we want you in the castle.'" In other words, Survivor's "loss" is The Traitors' "gain." Other competition gamers about to go for the gold in Scotland include Yamil "Yam Yam" Arocho from Survivor, Natalie Anderson (without her twin sister, Nadiya Anderson) from The Amazing Race and Survivor, and Ian Terry and Tiffany Mitchell from Big Brother. "It's been a long time since we've seen [Ian]," Davidson realizes. "It'll be interesting to see what he's like now at age 34. He was so young when he was on Big Brother a thousand years ago." Tiffany was "the creator of the Cookout" and "America's Favorite Houseguest" on Big Brother, so "people love her," remembers Dixon. "I loved that whole season of Big Brother 23. I think it's the best season they've ever done, so I can't wait to see her. She's got a little villainous side." Dixon wonders if Carolyn Wiger "had any sway" in getting her Survivor 44 buddy, Yam Yam, onto The Traitors, since she was so popular in the castle last year. Just like Rob, Carolyn was in the running for Survivor 50, but she was ultimately cut, possibly because of her time on the rival series. "Jeff Probst is very jealous and protective, and does not like it when his Survivors are on The Traitors," Davidson warns. They also discuss the hot topic of Donna Kelce, the mother of NFL bros Travis and Jason Kelce, and whether Travis' girlfriend, Taylor Swift, might be posting about The Traitors this year. "You know she's going to watch," Davidson smiles. "She probably already does. I mean, I'm sure Donna had an advisor and got some advice from from Taylor and her kids, or at least spoke to them about it, so it'll be interesting to see their take." Season 4 of The Traitors is expected to air in early 2026, as the first three seasons all began in January. The show has already been picked up for a fifth season.
