It's time to break out your best tartans and practice rolling your r's—The Trrraitors is finally back for its third season. Peacock's Emmy-winning competition series hosted by the ever-fashionable Alan Cumming has become one of our favorite reality TV shows. For the uninitiated, the series pits two groups against each other in a super-charged game of mafia with a cash prize of up to $250,000. The Traitors must stay alive until the end of the game and take out the Faithfuls one by one, as the Faithfuls must identify and banish all the Traitors to claim the money for themselves.
Just like its can't-miss second season, the U.S. version of the beloved Traitors franchise has recruited fan favorites from across the reality genre—from Bravolebrities to Bachelor Nation alums to Survivor and Big Brother's best strategists—to duke it out in a battle of wits and shifting alliances. Below, read on for everything you need to know about the cast of The Traitors season 3 heading into the castle, from their real-life friendships to the rivalries they're taking into the game.
