Celebrity Traitors fans have voiced concerns that contestant Sharon appears to have "checked out" of the competition, with some saying she looks "drained" ahead of the series finale. The second instalment of the BBC show is scheduled to reach its conclusion this Friday, October 30, with the final episode airing tonight, October 29.
The series launched earlier this month with 21 recognisable personalities competing for £100,000 for their chosen charity. With Traitors Maya Jama, James Acaster and King Kenny avoiding detection, last Friday's episode ended on a cliffhanger during the roundtable, where Sharon and Joanne faced elimination after making their case to fellow contestants.
Roundtable Tensions Rise
During the roundtable, Michael Sheen told Sharon: "You're like a different person." Sharon replied: "That's fine." She later added: "I've actually been working quite hard just to get my confidence up to speak at the table, but if yous want to vote for me that's absolutely fine. I will stand up there and say I'm Faithful but I totally get it."
When her turn came to defend herself, she said: "I have nothing else to say. I'm Faithful, I've been Faithful this whole game. I mean I come here and I sit and I say as many theories as I can, I tell you everything I know about the game."
Fans React on Social Media
Taking to X, one concerned viewer wrote: "Has Sharon checked out of the game? She looks drained and basically said they can kill her if they want." Another commented: "I feel for her. She was quiet when it started probably cos there were a lot of loud voices. Now she's found confidence to speak up about her theories but the faithfuls can't recognise it as that she figured a perfume bottle was used and brought up Maya today too and yet shot down."
A third stated: "Yes I think she wants out too. James Blunt and Michael Sheen have really knocked he for six. They were ridiculous. How has she changed? They just kept saying that without giving any specifics." A fourth added: "She realises the only way her voice might be heard is if they banish her and realise she really has always been a faithful."
Broader Criticism and Finale Details
A fifth penned: "It's so sad. She has only just found her voice and is being criticised for it. Maya is thought of as faithful because she's pretty and quiet. Very stereotyped." One person echoed: "She was definitely defeated they came to the conclusion she was a traitor when all she was doing was trying her best as a faithful. Wee shame", as another replied: "I guess she realised once big personalities like blunt and sheen suspected her she had no chance."
Celebrity Traitors returns tonight at 8pm on BBC One, where the outcome of Sharon and Joanne's elimination will be revealed.
