The Celebrity Traitors Season 2: The Full List Of Cast Rumours So Far
The dust has barely settled on that action-packed finale, but we have to admit we’re already missing The Traitors – and we’re sure we’re not the only ones.
Fortunately, you won’t have to be without your fix of the show for too long because another series of the star-studded spin-off The Celebrity Traitors is coming later this year.
A second season of the star-studded reality show was confirmed to be in the works last year, with another group of famous faces set to enter TV’s most famous castle, don the iconic cloak, and slowly kill off the competition one-by-one in the hopes of scooping a hefty cash prize for their chosen charities.
Between Alan Carr double-crossing his real-life pal Paloma Faith, Joe Mahler forming a budding friendship with Joe Wilkinson and Celia Imrie fart, season one had the whole nation hooked in 2025, and if the next cast is half as entertaining, we’ll be in for gripping and meme-worthy television.
And while The Celebrity Traitors isn’t expected to return until the end of the year, a number of celebrities are already rumoured to be lined up to enter the castle.
Here are the stars so far who have been tipped for the next season of The Celebrity Traitors…
Bob Mortimer
If you cast your mind back, there were a lot of rumours first time around suggesting that comedy legend Bob Mortimer would be taking part in The Celebrity Traitors, with the man himself going as far as saying it was the “the only show of its kind on TV that I would agree to get involved with”.
While in the end, he proved not to be on the line-up, executive producer Sarah Fay recently told Metro last month: “Of Bob wanted to do it next year, we would absolutely love it.”
This is definitely a case of watch this space…
Ruth Jones
Around the time season one of Celebrity Traitors came to an end, The Sun published an article claiming that Celebrity Traitors were already “quietly approaching potential contestants” for a new series, with Gavin & Stacey creator Ruth Jones said to be “in talks to appear”.
However, an undisclosed “insider” told the tabloid: “Ruth would only consider taking part on the proviso she would be a ‘Faithful’.”
Danny Dyer
Danny Dyer has long been on producers’ wishlist, even turning down an offer to appear in the first series of The Celebrity Traitors.
He confirmed on the Live And Let Dyers podcast: “They did sniff round me about it. It was a no from me because, for one, I hadn’t seen it.”
According to The Sun, though, he has had a change of heart after watching the first season of Celebrity Traitors, and is now reportedly in talks to join the next series.
Danny claimed: “If you’re going to do it, if you’re famous, it needs to be an indulgence project — you have to love the game. It’s quite a simple game. I thought it was too complicated, but it’s actually just about people manipulating each other and a lot of lying.
“So if the money’s right, I might get involved in the next series. I think I’d want to be a Traitor, there’s triple bluffs, double bluffs – it’s more fun to be a Traitor, you’ve got a job.”
Alison Hammond
Great British Bake Off and This Morning fave Alison Hammond has also reportedly been approached by producers, who are said to have targeted her hoping she’ll be “comedy gold” because she is so “naturally very funny”.
Alison herself is reportedly “keen” to appear in season two of The Celebrity Traitors, having previously said as much during a discussion on This Morning in November 2026, where she expressed her desire to be one of the Faithful if she were to be cast.
The daytime star is no stranger to reality TV, having first found fame on Big Brother in 2002 and has since appeared as a contestant on I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here, Celebrity Masterchef, Strictly Come Dancing, Let’s Dance For Sport Relief, Celebrity Stars In Their Eyes and Celebs Go Dating.
Amanda Holden
Reigning Celebrity Traitors winner Alan Carr’s TV BFF Amanda Holden is also said to be vying for a spot on the second series.
According to The Sun, Amanda is on producers’ radar, and she has previously been vocal about her desire to enter the Scottish castle.
“I’d absolutely love to do it. I’d have to be a Faithful though – everyone would assume I’d be a Traitor, but I don’t think I could pull that off,” she said on her radio show during the first series of the celebrity spin-off.
It seems Amanda’s busy schedule may hold her back from appearing on the show, though. The Sun’s source notes that The Celebrity Traitors is filmed at the same time as Britain’s Got Talent semi-finals are filmed live in London.
However, that same source also suspected she may be given time off from her various commitments to film the hit reality show.
Daisy May Cooper
Like Danny Dyer, Daisy May Cooper was first rumoured to be part of the cast of the first season of The Celebrity Traitors, but reportedly backed out at the last minute due to family commitments.
However, it now looks like Daisy may get a second chance in the castle as she is in talks to join the second series.
A source told The Sun that producers are apparently “pulling out all the stops” to encourage the writer and star of This Country to join the show.
Her brother Charlie had also been tipped to appear on season one before it was reported that he and his sister had pulled out, but it is unclear if he, too, has been approached for series two.
Considering the drama that having family members on the show brings, let’s hope Daisy and Charlie can be reunited in the castle.
