Claudia Winkleman accidentally 'drops clue' about Cat Burns in Celebrity Traitors

Celebrity Traitors presenter Claudia Winkleman may have inadvertently revealed that Cat Burns is amongst the scheming Traitors.

The singer has successfully maintained a low profile on the BBC programme, alongside fellow Traitor Alan Carr.

However, the duplicitous Traitors' cunning strategy might be beginning to crumble with the departure of Jonathan Ross, the third member of the castle conspirators.

The television veteran faced banishment during Wednesday's episode (October 29), whilst the same instalment saw some participants growing suspicious of Alan.

Additionally, Claudia's remark about Cat displaying a "new side" of her personality could have inadvertently exposed crucial information, reports Wales Online.

The surviving celebrities were participating in a task requiring them to walk across an unstable bridge suspended high above ground.

Cat bravely stepped forward to attempt the challenge but struggled with anxiety as she endeavoured to cross, crying out and screaming whilst slowly making her way along.

Claudia, observing from below alongside the remaining players, then remarked: "This is a new side to Cat, I'm gonna be honest."

Cat's co-conspirator Jonathan immediately intervened, appearing to deflect attention from Claudia's observation by highlighting that the experience "must be terrifying" for Cat.

Nevertheless, Cat's vulnerability won over audiences, with numerous viewers sharing supportive messages on social platforms, applauding her determination to complete the bridge crossing despite her fears.

"Cat on the bridge is giving me life," one viewer shared on X, previously known as Twitter.

"Cat is so relatable on that bridge," another person concurred.

"I felt so proud of Cat after watching her conquer her fears like that going over the bridge while being utterly terrified the entire way," said another.

One fan commented: "CAT BURNS... I love her so much, a legend is born on the Celebrity Traitors."

Later in the episode, Jonathan ended up being banished from the castle.

The star pretended until the end that he was a Faithful, questioning the contestants about what they were doing wrong when it came to hunting Traitors.

But in the last minute he revealed to them: "I am now, and I have all through the game, been completely faithful... to the Traitors!"

Celebrity Traitors airs on BBC One.
