Traitors: Rachel's Dagger Plan Succeeds, Matthew Banished

A tense roundtable on The Traitors has resulted in Matthew being the latest Faithful to be banished from the game, marking a pivotal moment in the 2026 season. The often confusing debate at the roundtable saw the votes come down to Matthew and James, with the latter protesting manically that Matthew was a Traitor.

Dagger Plan Unfolds

Ultimately, due to James having two votes thanks to the ceremonial dagger, Matthew was eliminated, with Traitor Rachel casting the final vote against him. This strategic move by Rachel has left her in a precarious position, as suspicions begin to mount among the remaining players.

Suspicions Raised

In a curveball development, Faraaz correctly calls out Rachel to the rest of the group, pinpointing that her argument with Fiona was Traitor on Traitor. This accusation has put Rachel under intense scrutiny, making her path forward increasingly difficult.
