The Traitors winner Harry still hasn’t received money 4 months after winning £95,150

The Traitors' Harry Clark managed to give a fellow contestant serious trust issues and played an absolute blinder to win the show - but he still hasn't got his hands on the prize pot.

The 23-year-old, from Slough, says that despite filming wrapping up four months ago, he still hasn't been paid his jackpot of £95,150 yet.

On top of that, he's had to continue lying through his teeth to everyone around him to keep the news of his triumph on the hit BBC show under wraps. I'll tell you what, this lad must be an expert in the art of deception by now. Take a look at this:

Harry was controversially crowned the winner of the latest season of The Traitors last night (26 January) after he managed to convince his closest ally in the Scottish castle, Mollie Pearce, that he was a Faithful.

Jas Singh smelled a rat - but even though he raised his concerns about his co-star, they were ignored and the final culminated in Mollie fleeing the room in tears when she realised she had been fooled by her friend.

Harry was seen raising a glass with host Claudia Winkleman to celebrate successfully evading detection throughout the series and he seemed relieved that everything was finally out in the open so he could let his mask slip.

But the British Army engineer had a whole other problem to deal with when he got home - pulling the wool over the eyes of his friends, family and colleagues so that they didn't know he had won The Traitors.

The TV star said he had to put his victory to 'the back of his mind' to avoid slipping up in conversation.

He explained: "I’d won, but then I had to go back to work and I couldn’t tell anyone so I sort of just wanted to forget about it. And now it’s like reliving it and being able to tell everyone that I’ve actually won The Traitors series two."

Contrary to popular belief, Harry said he struggled to keep up the ruse both on the show and in real life.

He told the Daily Star: "I felt like I was lying even more.

"I had a month where I had to lie to people and build connections on a lie and then I get home and then I’ve got to carry on lying for four months again, just even about being on the show - let alone winning it.

The winner continued: "So it’s been a relief, last night was a massive relief because it’s like, 'Oh okay, I don’t need to lie for a bit now so I can chill out'."

The realisation that he managed to con all the contestants and swipe the £95,150 prize still hasn't set in for Harry either, mainly due to the fact he hasn't seen a penny of it yet.

Discussing his windfall, he added: "It’s mad, isn’t it? I can’t really believe it. I can’t even explain it because, well one: I haven’t got the money yet, so that’s probably why. And two: I just can’t believe it. Like I still can’t believe it."

It's probably a good job though as it gives him time to reassess what he might spend it on, seen as though fans of The Traitors weren't happy to hear of his initial plans on what to do with it all.
