<\/p>\nThe first season of Celebrity Traitors, which aired in October 2025, welcomed a wide array of stars to the famous castle, including the likes of comedian Alan Carr, singer Charlotte Church, broadcaster Clare Balding, broadcaster Kate Garraway, Actor Mark Bonnar, and Olympian Tom Daley. <\/p>\n
Host Claudia Winkleman greeted the group of celebrities as they arrived at the beautiful location in the Scottish Highlands to play the ultimate reality game of detection, back-stabbing, and trust.<\/p>\n

However, it wasn\u2019t long before the famous faces were questioning everything and everyone as Ms Winkleman secretly assigned the Traitors.<\/p>\n
Mr Carr, presenter Jonathan Ross, and singer Cat Burns were chosen as the Traitors and were soon tasked with sabotaging as much as they could.<\/p>\n
It was Mr Carr who was victorious and deceived his fellow castmates and Faithfuls, winning \u00a3100,000 for his chosen charity. <\/p>\n
After rising in popularity and the series coming to an end, fans of the show have been theorising as to who will be joining the cast for the 2026 series.<\/p>\n

One name who has been in the running is Gavin and Stacey star Ruth Jones, with many feeling she would be the perfect candidate for a Traitor.<\/p>\n
However, Ms Jones has set the record straight on whether she will be joining the cast or not during an appearance alongside former Faithful and presenter Mr Ross tonight.<\/p>\n
Sitting on his sofa, she was asked whether she would ever take part in the series, to which she explained: \u201cThere was a big rumour about me doing it as well. <\/p>\n
\u201cThe thing is I had sort of been asked about doing it and I love the show and I think it\u2019s amazing”<\/p>\n

\u201cBut then I thought I\u2019ll have to put on a wetsuit and I\u2019ll have to go in one of them lochs, I\u2019ll get bitten by the midges. I\u2019d rather sit in my pyjamas and watch everyone else.\u201d<\/p>\n
Being pushed on her upcoming TV appearances, Mr Ross asked whether the former Vanessa ‘Nessa’ Jenkins star would ever take part in Strictly Come Dancing.<\/p>\n
She expressed: \u201cI\u2019ve been and watched Strictly, and it is amazing what people do. But it is absolutely not for me. <\/p>\n
\u201cThey would have to pay me an absolutely ridiculous amount of money – there isn\u2019t a figure.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ms Jones is marginally known for her role as the Welsh character, and recently won a Bafta for her role in the highly popular BBC series.<\/p>\n
Touching on that moment, she explained: \u201cOh gosh. Well, I didn\u2019t hear my name properly. The only reason I knew I\u2019d won was because Rob Brydon and Jo Page were quite hysterical.<\/p>\n
\u201cThey were going, \u2018Yes yes!\u2019 and it was a bit like the barn dance episode in Gavin and Stacey when Rob Brydon goes, \u2018Surprise surprise!\u2019<\/p>\n
\u201cI went up and because genuinely I didn\u2019t think I was going to win, and I\u2019m not doing that humble brag thing, I\u2019d taken my shoes off and I was sort of settled in for the night. <\/p>\n
\u201cAnd then when they called my name, I had to go up barefoot which I kind of quite liked. Very freeing.\u201d <\/p>\n
