Is there going to be a season 4 of The Traitors?

The Traitors is finally back on our screens, giving us some much needed joy (and albeit a a lot of stress) on these cold and dark January evenings. And as we approach the mid-point of the series we are desperate to know, will the show be returning for a fourth season?

Ever since its debut in 2022, the show has become a firm favourite as the nation watches a group of contestants try and decipher who among them is a Traitor and who is a Faithful, all in the hopes of walking away with the prize pot at the end of the series. So far there's been mixed results, with the Faithfuls winning season one, while Traitor Harry stole the money at the end of season two.

As we eagerly watch and await the results of season three, here's everything you need to know about the next season of The Traitors.

Has The Traitors been confirmed for season 4?

Yes! Back in August 2024, the BBC confirmed a fourth season of the show would be coming, along with a celebrity edition of the series too.

Kalpna Patel-Knight, Head of Entertainment at the BBC, said of the exciting news: “The Traitors has well and truly established itself as an unmissable highlight of the year and the news of a fourth outing, alongside a brand new celebrity version coming to the BBC, will take the series to a whole new level. It will once again be fascinating for our audiences to see who’ll outwit, outplay, and outlast. Let the mind games begin!"

The series will be filmed at some point this year.

Who will be hosting The Traitors season 4?

It wouldn't be the show without her, so we're very happy to hear Claudia Winkleman will be returning to host the next season.

Speaking of Claudia's return, Mike Cotton, Creative Director Unscripted at Studio Lambert and Executive Producer for The Traitors said: "There's a whole lot of exciting treachery and deception yet to come from the Highlands… Claudia’s going to have to pack some extra knitwear.”

Ugh, we cannot wait to see what iconic outfits Claudia brings out next time 😍.
