Fans of The Traitors have expressed frustration with the faithfuls after Jessie was murdered in a risky move by traitors Rachel and Stephen on the BBC series hosted by Claudia Winkleman.
Jessie, a popular faithful, was eliminated after getting too close to uncovering Stephen's identity. Stephen admitted he didn't think he could continue as a traitor with Jessie in the game, and opted to murder her rather than recruit a new member.
Reacting to her murder, Jessie said: 'Oh god, I knew it… That's it, that is it. Now I possibly believe that Stephen wasn't a traitor and they totally pinned it on him. If it is him, he would have kept me in. I just hope that the faithfuls win.'
Viewers took to social media to criticise the remaining faithfuls, with one user writing: 'With Jessie gone I hope the Traitors win as these faithfuls are absolutely hopeless.' Another added: 'Now I'm fully behind the traitors now cause Jessie was the only good faithful left.'
Some fans described the murder as a risky move by Stephen, but noted that the faithfuls' inability to identify traitors made it a safe play.
