The Celebrity Traitors Season 2: The Full List Of Cast Rumours So Far

If even half of these rumours turn out to be true, we're in for another incredible series.

Following the mammoth success of The Celebrity Traitors last year, bosses have their work cut out for them making sure the second run lives up to the first.

Luckily, it sounds like they’ve already snagged some exciting names.

During a recent interview on The One Show, host Claudia Winkleman was asked if there were any “big dogs” on the season two line-up, to which she affirmed: “There certainly are.”

“They had to repeat the people [in the cast] twice to me, because I was like, ‘huh? Are you joking? Come again?’,” she enthused. “So we’re incredibly lucky.

“We’re so grateful that people want to come and play the game! And the people who said yes for series one, I still can’t believe it…”

“I’m very excited but I can’t say anything else,” Claudia added. “Don’t make eye contact with me.”

With filming on the new season rumoured to be getting underway later this month, producers are remaining tight-lipped about the famous faces who could be donning that iconic cloak for a trip up the turret later this year.

Here’s a quick round-up of all the stars rumoured so far...

If you cast your mind back, there were a lot of rumours first time around suggesting that comedy legend Bob Mortimer would be taking part in The Celebrity Traitors, with the man himself going as far as saying it was the “the only show of its kind on TV that I would agree to get involved with”.

While in the end, he proved not to be on the line-up, executive producer Sarah Fay recently told Metro last month: “Of Bob wanted to do it next year, we would absolutely love it.”

This is definitely a case of watch this space…

Around the time season one of Celebrity Traitors came to an end, The Sun published an article claiming that Celebrity Traitors were already “quietly approaching potential contestants” for a new series, with Gavin & Stacey creator Ruth Jones said to be “in talks to appear”.

However, an undisclosed “insider” told the tabloid: “Ruth would only consider taking part on the proviso she would be a ‘Faithful’.”

Danny Dyer has long been on producers’ wishlist, even turning down an offer to appear in the first series of The Celebrity Traitors.

He confirmed on the Live And Let Dyers podcast: “They did sniff round me about it. It was a no from me because, for one, I hadn’t seen it.”

According to The Sun, though, he has had a change of heart after watching the first season of Celebrity Traitors, and is now reportedly in talks to join the next........
