Celebrity Traitors Maya, James and Kenny have unintentionally doomed themselves as new fan theory emerges

People tuning into Celebrity Traitors reckon that three stars of the show might have shot themselves in the foot.

In wake of what unfolded in Friday's (23 October) episode, fans of the hit BBC show fear that Maya Jama, James Acaster, and King Kenny might have unintentionally sealed their own fates.

As we enter the final week of this year's star-studded series, celebrities are dropping like flies - and the treacherous trio who were hilariously voted as the most trustworthy might be next on the chopping block.

The latest episode of Celebrity Traitors saw us bid farewell to Miranda Hart, as she was the latest victim that the Traitors chose to take out.

Getting rid of the self-proclaimed 'Miss Marple' was probably a wise choice for Maya, James and Kenny, as she has been a formidable Faithful during this year's series.

As well as this, viewers were left on quite the cliffhanger as Sharon Rooney and Joanne McNally were the subjects of a tie at the roundtable vote.

Despite all this drama that unfolded, the thing that surprised fans the most is that each of the Traitors were deemed to be the most trustworthy players by their counterparts.

As a result, Kenny bagged a double vote at the roundtable after being awarded with the 'dagger' - meaning the fate of Sharon and Joanne lies in his hands.

But after stewing on the events that unfolded in Friday's episode, a lot of Brits seem to believe that Kenny and his deceptive co-stars might have just sabotaged themselves.

Looking forward to what might happen on Thursday (29 October), Celebrity Traitors fans are wondering how Maya, James and Kenny will think up a good excuse which explains their survival.

In a post on X, one inquisitive fan asked: "What’s going to happen when the three most trusted players, the pinnacle of the Faithful, all of whom are un-shielded, The Trustworthy Trio… all walk back into Breakfast un-murdered next week? The only logical reason for that: they are all Traitors."

This person isn't the only one thinking along these lines, as another concurred: "Absolutely this, why are the ones who won't be banished still there?"

While a third added: "Agreed…but that would require the Faithfuls to work together!"

And a fourth said: "Good point - the popularity/trust type stuff always eventually brings your name under the microscope. The best place in the game is to be forgotten about in the corner - but knowing these Faithfuls, they may not have the eureka moment- especially if Sheen goes soon."

Others suggested that all is not lost for Maya, James and Kenny just yet, as someone said: "They could try another distraction Murder - likely to be a big commotion among the Faithful if e.g. Michael got Murdered.

"Plus the Traitors could claim it looks like the Traitors had bigger threats higher up the list or something."

Another joked: "I think you are vastly overestimating the Faithfuls. Last week everyone was like, 'There’s no way the Traitors will get away with murder in plain sight, it’s so obvious, they’re all in the library with Ross!' Well..."

Some also pointed out that being voted the most trustworthy does not guarantee avoiding the heat - as look what happened to Julie Hesmondhalgh and Joe Lycett after they earned this badge of honour in episode one.

One Celebrity Traitors fan also suggested that there is also the chance that a 'big twist' could be en route - but I guess we will have to tune in on Thursday to find out how the trio dig themselves out of this hole.
