‘The Traitors’ Season 3 Cast Portraits Revealed: Tom Sandoval, Chrishell Stause, And More

Cast portraits for The Traitors Season 3 have been revealed, and this season is a reality TV fan’s dream come true. Selling Sunset, Real Housewives, and Bachelor alumni compete in the new season, which premieres on Peacock January 9. 

Alan Cumming returns to host the award-winning series, where twenty reality stars and celebrities come together to play a real-life murder mystery game at an ancient castle in Scotland. The contestants will undergo a series of physical and mental challenges for a chance to win $250,000.

However, hidden amongst the Faithful competitors are the Traitors, who have a secret mission to “murder” the Faithful and claim the cash for themselves. If the Faithful successfully unveil all the Traitors, they will share the prize fund.

Here’s everything you need to know about the upcoming season, plus a sneak peek of the cast portraits.

Who is on Season 3 of The Traitors?

This season’s star-studded lineup includes everyone from WWE royalty to Survivor standouts to a Ru Paul’s Drag Race winner. Here is the complete cast list, in alphabetical order:

• Bob Harper (The Biggest Loser)

  The personal trainer is no stranger to a physical challenge: he trained contestants for 16 seasons of The Biggest Loser before hosting the 17th season. It’s no secret Harper will likely use his strength and agility to his advantage on Traitors.

• Bob The Drag Queen (RuPaul’s Drag Race)

  This diva reigned victorious on Season 8 of RuPaul’s Drag Race in 2016. Eight years since taking home the cash prize, he’s due for another taste of success. Bob is bound to bring the energy, outfits, and hilarious one-liners this season of Traitors.

• Britney Haynes (Big Brother)

  Haynes kept it real on Big Brother, and her authenticity may just be her secret to success. She placed 9th on Big Brother 4, so it’s a safe bet that she’s out for vengeance. We’re hoping she brings her hilarious confessionals and roasts to the Traitors franchise.

• Carolyn Wiger (Survivor)

  The kooky Carolyn Wiger was first introduced to audiences during Survivor 44, where this recovering addict made a wholly unexpected run at being the Sole Survivor (she finished as second runner-up). How will her eccentric nature and unpredictable personality fare in the Scottish Highlands? Only time will tell.

• Chanel Ayan (The Real Housewives of Dubai)

  This multi-hyphenate is looking to add another achievement to her roster. The model and businesswomen (she’s currently developing a makeup line) will hopefully not be afraid to get her hands—or face—dirty in this competition. 

• Chrishell Stause (Selling Sunset)

  From selling real estate to strategizing for challenges, this reality star is ready to make her mark on Traitors. She was also previously a contestant on Dancing to the Stars—will she use her movement skills to her advantage in this new competition? 

• Ciara Miller (Summer House)

  Toto, she’s not in Montauk anymore. The Summer House is in for a change of scenery as she navigates her way through challenges of loyalty, lies and deception at a Scottish castle.

• Danielle Reyes (Big Brother)

  The Big Brother 3 runner-up is ready to reign victorious. Reyes was targeted for her strategy upon her return to Big Brother 7, so watch out for her gameplay and alliances on Traitors.

• Dolores Catania (The Real Housewives of New Jersey)

  Catania is no stranger to reality TV: she has been a cast member of The Real Housewives of New Jersey since 2016. Now, the bold television personality and style icon will tap into her competitive edge (all while looking stylish, of course).

• Dorinda Medley (The Real Housewives of New York City)

  She may be reality TV royalty, but she’s seeking another crown. The Real Housewives personality and businesswoman owns a Cashmere brand that has led her to collaborate with celebrities such as Joan Collins and Princess Diana. Will she work together with her fellow competitors or hold her cards close to her chest? 

• Dylan Efron (Down to Earth with Zac Efron)

  He’s known for being Zac Efron’s brother, but Dylan Efron is setting himself apart and making a name for himself. If he’s as athletic as his sibling, we see him performing extremely well on this show.

• Gabby Windey (The Bachelorette)

  She may have not found success in the Bachelor mansion, but the Traitors castle seems to be her calling. Former Bachelor Peter Weber was banished from Season 2 of The Traitors. Will Windey outperform her fellow alum?

• Jeremy Collins (Survivor)

  He’s no stranger to a competition. Collins, who won Survivor: Cambodia, is clearly one to watch this season. He appeared on three establishments of Survivor and proved himself a physical threat on each season.

• Lord Ivar Mountbatten (British Royal)

  He may be one of the most random Traitors contestants we’ve seen, but don’t underestimate him. Lord Ivar, who is the third cousin once removed of Queen Elizabeth, is older and wiser than a lot of his fellow competitors.

• Nikki Garcia (WWE Star)

  This wrestling legend will likely be a physical threat in the castle, but how will her strategy fare compared to the other contestants? Garcia recently made headlines for settling a divorce with husband Artem Chigvintsev. She’s in her comeback era, and Traitors may just be the perfect stage for revenge.

• Rob Mariano (Survivor and Deal or No Deal Island)

  Mariano has experience practicing physical and mental strategy on reality TV, with appearances on both Survivor, Deal or No Deal, and The Amazing Race. Not to mention, “Boston Rob” has stamina for days: he was the first contestant to appear on Survivor six times and played for a record total of 117 days.

• Robyn Dixon (The Real Housewives of Potomac)

  Dioxn faced drama for eight seasons of The Real Housewives of Potomac. Will her experience with gossip help or harm her in the Traitors universe? Will she know how to squash any issues with her fellow competitors, or will the drama follow her?

• Sam Asghari (Actor and Model)

  Britney Spears’ ex-husband has had enough of the headlines. The recent divorcee is casting drama aside for a chance to put his physical strength to the test. Asghari is the owner of Asghari Fitness, a website that creates customized fitness programs for his clients.

• Tom Sandoval (Vanderpump Rules)

  This reality star knows how to climb his way to success: on Vanderpump Rules, he went from bartender at SUR to co-owner of TomTom. Will he fight his way to the top on Traitors, or will his tendency to cause drama lead him to banishment?

• Tony Vlachos (Survivor)

  Vlachos brought humor and strategic gameplay to the screen on Survivor, leading him to win both Season 28 and Season 40 of the series. Clearly, the $2 million dollar prize wasn’t enough. Vlachos is coming back for more.

• Wells Adams (Bachelor in Paradise)

  Known for being the bartender on Bachelor in Paradise, Adams is used to sitting back and watching the drama unfold. We anticipate a quiet yet clever strategy coming from the Bachelor alum, who previously competed on JoJo Fletcher’s season of The Bachelorette.

What happens in The Traitors Season 3?

Lies, murder and betrayal abound in the third installment of The Traitors. In the Season 3 trailer, which was released on November 22, Cumming carries a torch through the Scottish moors as he prophesizes, “By the pricking of my thumbs, something wicked this way comes.” Reyes shows her competitive edge, declaring how you need to be a “cold-blooded killer” in this game, while Ayan admits she “loves blood.” Fire, snakes, clowns, and mysterious masked figures are teased, but Bob the Drag Queen seems unfazed: “Baby, my mama didn’t raise no fool.”

During Season 2, The Traitors became the #1 unscripted series in the U.S. across all streaming platforms. It also received four Primetime Emmy award nominations, winning two for Outstanding Reality Competition Program and Outstanding Host for a Reality or Reality Competition Program. Following Season 1, The Traitors took home the Emmy Award for Outstanding Casting for a Reality Program.

Where and when can I watch The Traitors Season 3?

Season 3 of The Traitors will premiere exclusively on Peacock on January 9, 2025. In the previous season, the first three episodes were dropped on premiere day, while the following episodes dropped weekly. Season 3 will likely follow the same airing schedule.
