The Traitors Season 3 is finally among us. Season 2 set a high bar, with dedicated players and shocking revelations up until the final minutes. As a result, Season 3 has some big shoes to fill. Thankfully, Season 3 features a diverse group of some of our favorite reality television stars. Producers nailed the casting for Season 3, so there will surely be no shortage of entertainment this season. While we’re excited to see how everyone plays, we’re especially hyped to watch these four contestants.
Wells Adams
When the cast list for The Traitors Season 3 came out, I was shocked to see Wells Adams on it. Wells made his reality television debut on The Bachelorette. He later starred on Bachelor in Paradise, where he eventually became the beach’s beloved bartender. Wells often helps the troubled singles on the BIP beach and provides much-needed humorous commentary.
Compared to the rest of the cast, Wells comes off as pretty innocent. He gives Faithful energy, but it would also be interesting to watch him as a Traitor. Wells hasn’t done any shows involving strategy as many of his fellow contestants have, however, that doesn’t mean we should count him out. Either way, Wells is sure to be a breath of fresh air this season.
Carolyn Wiger
Another contestant we’re thrilled to see on Season 3 is Carolyn Wiger. During her time on Survivor 44, Carolyn was a member of the iconic Tika Three alliance. She ultimately made it to the final three due to her strong strategic and social games. Carolyn is one of the funniest Survivor New Era players, so it will be nice to see her return to the big screen once again.
Carolyn is in a great spot to excel on The Traitors. As a Survivor alum, Carolyn knows a thing or two about how to play a game strategically. At the same time, Carolyn has strong social skills that will help her to form relationships and trust with the other contestants. Carolyn would be great as either a Faithful or a Traitor, although I do hope she’s chosen as one of the Traitors.
Tom Sandoval
This might be a controversial take, but I’m excited to see how Tom Sandoval’s time on Season 3 will go. Tom is one of the most infamous reality villains of our time. After the Scandoval disaster on Vanderpump Rules, The Traitors is the perfect place for Tom to have somewhat of a fresh start. While he probably will never repair his reputation entirely, he could create a new name for himself in Season 3.
Since Tom is one of the most villainous members of this cast, I would be surprised if he’s one of the Traitors. I think it makes the most sense for Tom to be a Faithful. It will be funny to watch Tom’s journey, as he’s sure to be on bad terms with a few of his fellow players who have surely seen him on Vanderpump Rules. Will Tom be likable this season or will Scandoval continue to haunt him throughout his time in the Scottish Highlands?
Chanel Ayan
The last player I’m thrilled to watch this season is Chanel Ayan. Chanel is one of several Real Housewives stars playing this season, although she’s arguably the most exciting. While Chanel was used to glitz and glamour on The Real Housewives of Dubai, the Scottish Highlands will be a change of scenery for her.
Chanel is a perfect choice for The Traitors since she has both a fan-favorite and villainous reputation on RHODubai. It will be interesting to see if Chanel works with the other Real Housewives, or if she chooses to form a new path entirely. Chanel is smart and witty, which puts her in a good position to get far in Season 3. Like Carolyn, Chanel’s another player I could see making a good fit for a Traitor. While she would also be good as a Faithful, it would be more exciting to watch her as a Traitor.
The Traitors Season 3 premieres Thursday January 9 on Peacock.
