The Traitors star Roxy Wilson has admitted she is “happy” to have left the show. The recruitment worker, 32, was “murdered” just ahead of the final in Thursday’s edition of Claudia Winkleman’s hit BBC show.
Despite just missing out on the chance to potentially win part of the six-figure prize pot, the reality star admitted in her first interview after leaving the castle that, whilst she would have “loved” to have gone just that extra bit further, she is still pleased with all she achieved as a contestant.
She said: “To be honest, I’m kind of happy, because it only gets so much harder. I think I’ve got as far as I could. I would have loved to have got to the final, but it was just always my aim to get as far as possible, so I’m really proud.”

Early on in the series, Roxy revealed to viewers that fellow contestant Judy was her mother, but the pair kept this all a secret, and she had to keep it that way once Judy had been murdered. She added: “Yes, to have that moment [to tell them] and see the shock on their faces would have been great, 100%. I was happy because I had managed to get one over on the Traitors, as they hadn’t established and figured out that relationship.
“No, no, no, for sure. Especially because after Mum went, she was confirmed a Faithful, so they would have definitely thought the other one has got to be a Traitor. I just decided that under no circumstances will I tell them. Even if I was a Traitor, I wouldn’t have told the other Traitors.”
In the end, Roxy has insisted she wouldn’t have changed a thing about her experience in the famous castle. She added: “No, to be honest, because I was just my full self. I feel like maybe I could have got a little bit further if I was a bit wiser to the Traitors, but I’m really happy with how I was, because I wouldn’t want to change me.
“It was just so good, the whole experience! Meeting all these people that you may never have crossed paths with in life, and just doing it with mum as well. That’s like an extra experience. The whole thing still blows my mind!”
But fans may have noticed one thing that was slightly different about Roxy’s exit compared to all the others that have come before her. Usually, Faithfuls banished or murdered are filmed finding out who the actual Traitors are on the spin-off show Uncloaked, but in Thursday night’s episode, such a scene with Roxy made it to air.
This is because the programme instead teased the dreaded Chests of Chance. Only when the programme kicks off tomorrow will fans discover whether Stephen is a lone traitor in the end-game, or whether he and Rachel have actually managed to make it through as planned. The reveal would have been filmed just after the Rountable, meaning that viewers can’t see who was banished just yet as makers strive to protect the cliffhanger.
But this did not stop some fans complaining, with one writing on X, formerly known as Twitter: “I can’t WAIT to see Roxy’s reaction on Uncloaked when she learns who the Traitors are. Truly one of the worst players ever bless her,” and another said: “Uncloaked you better get the footage of Roxy finding out Rachel and Stephen are traitors on my screen RIGHT NOW. I’ve already been robbed of seeing her face in the final!”
A third raged: “Where is the footage of Roxy finding out who the Traitors are, are you kidding me?” And a fourth said: “Why didn’t they show Roxy’s reaction to who the traitors were?? Was she utterly embarrassed finding out it was her besties? Cos she should be!”
The Traitors continues tomorrow at 8pm on BBC One and BBC iPlayer
