A contestant from the hit BBC show The Traitors has made a revealing statement about the mysterious Red Cloak, mere hours before the secret is set to be unveiled in tonight's episode.
First Banishment and a Family Secret
Judy, who became the first player to be banished from Ardross Castle in this year's series, opened up about her experience during an appearance on ITV's This Morning earlier today, January 7, 2026. The television personality was voted out by her fellow contestants after they incorrectly targeted a faithful.
What the other players did not know during filming was a significant family connection. Judy's daughter, Roxie, is also a contestant in this series and is in the running to be the Secret Traitor.
"If it's Roxy, I Won't Be Happy"
Speaking ahead of the crucial fourth episode, Judy addressed the possibility of her daughter taking on the deceptive role. "If it’s [Secret Traitor] Roxy, I won’t be happy," she confessed. However, she explained that they had a pact to play the game fully, regardless of the outcome. "We agreed that when we went into the game we would play the game no matter who came out first, and that’s what we've done."
Upon her gracious exit from the game, Judy maintained her innocence to the round table, stating, "I'd just like to say, you've been amazing, I've had an absolute blast and I'm just me. I am a faithful."
Mounting Tension Before the Reveal
With the episode airing tonight, speculation about the identity of the Red Cloak is at fever pitch. Viewers will see the existing traitors, Stephen and Rachel, meet a new figure in the turret. This follows the dramatic banishment of the traitor Hugo in the previous episode, who was ousted even by his fellow conspirators.
While numerous fan theories are circulating online, the BBC has not confirmed any details, leaving the nation in suspense. All will be revealed when The Traitors continues on BBC One this evening.
