The finale of The Traitors UK season 3 aired on January 24, 2025, wrapping up weeks of strategy, alliances, and betrayals. The final episode began with five remaining contestants, in which one was a Traitor and the remaining were Faithfuls. After a breakfast discussion, Charlotte was the first one to be voted out.
Despite Frankie’s attempt to expose her as a Traitor, the new rules meant Charlotte’s true identity remained unrevealed.The final four—Alexander, Frankie, Leanne, and Jake—faced additional rounds of voting to determine who could be trusted.
Doubts surfaced among the group about Alexander's earlier suspicions and whether he had been truthful throughout the game. During a discussion, Alexander struggled to recall details about his suspicions, which caused the others to doubt his honesty. This uncertainty led to the group voting to banish him from the game, leaving Leanne, Jake, and Frankie as the final three contestants.
