Spoiler warning for the final of Celebrity Traitors
Alan Carr has won Celebrity Traitors as a Traitor, winning £87,500 for charity.
The finale was an insane series of twists and turns, with it seeming to be in the bag for the Faithful when they first voted out Cat Burns giving them a four to one advantage.
Carr was able to turn David Olusoga and Nick Mohammed against Joe Marler however, leaving the former rugby star the next to be voted out.

When Olusoga and Mohammed decided that they felt safe however, this gifted the win to Carr.
Shockingly the result was actually leaked earlier this morning when it was discovered that a Canadian TV streaming service had published the finale episode a full day early, with the BBC responding.
When Alan revealed that he was the final Traitor amongst them, the TV star burst into tears in an emotional moment, telling the others he'd been holding it in.
One fan tweeted: "Alan crying when we won i love him so much."
Another said: "ALAN CRYING IM F*CKING SOBBING AND HEAVING."
Earlier in the episode Carr has spoken about how he had worked ‘hard’ and was a ‘nervous wreak’ at the start.
Carr pounced however when Joe apologised to Cat for banishing her, using it to turn the tide against him, with doubt introduced to Nick Mohammed, Joe's strongest ally throughout the latter half of the show.
After agreeing to banish one of the final four Joe being voted out sealed the win for Alan.
Considering the show’s first two episodes saw many fans calling Alan the ‘worst Traitor ever’ and comparing him to season three Traitor Linda.
Speaking about these criticisms, Carr said to the BBC: “Someone sent me a clip of a psychologist on a local radio station saying I wouldn’t do well on the show because I’m playing a role and I’m not the ‘real’ Alan Carr.
“That’s quite a statement considering I’ve never met this lady.
“It seems everyone has an opinion!”
This statement will be all the more ironic now that Alan has managed to walk out as the sole winner of Celebrity Traitors.
Fans took to social media to discuss the win, with one saying: "If you told me Alan Carr would be the last remaining traitor left in the finale I would have laughed in your face."
Another said: "Who’d have thought Alan Carr would be the last traitor standing!"
A third tweeted pictures of Carr, saying: "The People’s Princess is a winner regardless of what happens."
Others however were simply in shock at Joe being voted out, with one tweeting: "no i’m sorry this is NOT happening right now."
Another said: "Nah Nick picking Joe is the ultimate betrayal."
