In a dramatic twist on the latest series of The Traitors, it has been revealed that two contestants are mother and daughter, having kept their relationship secret from the other players. Judy and Roxy were unveiled as family members during a tense moment in the castle, with Roxy declaring: 'James is running wild saying Judy is a Traitor. I don't know if she's a Traitor or not, Judy seems lovely, but I'm bound to say that considering she's my mum.'
The pair had deliberately hidden their connection, fearing it would create an unfair alliance. Judy later shared that she adopted Roxy when she was around five years old, describing it as 'the best thing I ever did'. Roxy added: 'We're keeping it a secret just because I think if you come as a pair, it's almost like an alliance. I feel so protective over her.'
This revelation comes after earlier episodes confirmed other links between contestants. In the first episode, Ross and Netty discovered they had met around ten years ago through a mutual friend, a connection that was a complete shock to both. Ross later explained on social media that they were introduced by a photographer friend named Dan.
Further connections have emerged, including Ellie confirming that Ross, who was banished, was actually her boyfriend. Ellie said she knew Ross could not have been a Traitor and planned to avenge his banishment. Ross described hiding their relationship as 'the easiest thing ever', adding that Ellie was his 'safe space' in the game.
Viewers have also speculated about links between other contestants, with a family tree in the castle drawing particular attention. The show continues to air on BBC One, with fans eagerly watching for further revelations.
