THE Celebrity Traitors 2026 has reached its thrilling conclusion after weeks of backstabbing and Highland drama.
Claudia Winkleman welcomed 21 famous faces to Ardross Castle for the second star-studded charity edition of the hit BBC reality show.
But after 10 episodes of murder, paranoia, and explosive Roundtables, only one side could take the jackpot.
Here is everything you need to know about who won The Celebrity Traitors Series 2, the results in full, and how the final showdown went down.
Who won Celebrity Traitors 2026?
Romesh Ranganathan and Sebastian Croft have won The Celebrity Traitors 2026, walking away with a huge prize pot of £83,000 for their chosen charities.
The Faithfuls – made up of Romesh Ranganathan, Michael Sheen, James Blunt, Leigh-Anne Pinnock and Sebastian Croft – held their nerve, unmasking the final Traitors in a nail-biting final vote to split the cash for their selected causes.
They follow comedian Alan Carr, who won the inaugural 2025 celebrity series as a solo Traitor, securing £87,500 for Neuroblastoma UK.
What happened in the final?
The tension in the castle was at an all-time high following the chaotic penultimate episode, where recruited Traitor James Acaster shockingly confessed his identity at the Roundtable.
Entering the final day, seven stars remained: Traitors Maya Jama and King Kenny, alongside Faithfuls Romesh Ranganathan, Michael Sheen, James Blunt, Leigh-Anne Pinnock, and Sebastian ‘Bash’ Croft.
Claudia gathered the finalists for one last gruelling mission to bring the charity fund to £83,000.
Back in the castle, the players took their seats for the final formal banishment.
After James Blunt and King Kenny made it to the end game, Maya was banished after being back stabbed by Kenny, who said he would stand by her but then did not.
Kenny also murdered Michael Sheen with Leigh-Anne banished as well.

Where does the prize money go?
Unlike the regular civilian series of The Traitors, the stars do not keep the cash.
The prize money is donated entirely to the winner’s nominated UK charities.
If the Faithfuls triumph, the final pot is divided equally between the surviving players’ chosen causes.
If a Traitor wins, they take the entire sum for their own single charity.
The Celebrity Traitors is available to stream in full on BBC iPlayer.
