Smash hit BBC series The Traitors has now concluded and three people have walked away with a share of over £100,000. Although she didn’t win the money, Welsh Traitor Amanda Lovett from the Swansea valley has been humbled by the reaction to her on the show.
“Honestly, it has made my heart warm up,” Amanda, 54, said in an exclusive interview with WalesOnline. “I’m walking around the shops and people want selfies, I love it and I’m glad so many people have enjoyed it.” Amanda herself has been a source of enjoyment for Welsh fans of The Traitors, who have loved her scheming ways and killer one-liners.
When Amanda’s time in the competition came to an end in episode 10, she stressed that she was “ready to go”. Speaking of this, she said: “I could not have sat there in the final and said, ‘Sorry, I’m a Traitor and I’m taking all the money’. Personally I’d have liked to share the money because that’s not what the game is about, so I’m glad that decision was taken away from me.”
