‘The Traitors’ FYC celebration: Season 2 standouts dish on season 3 lineup

On Saturday, June 8, Peacock’s “The Traitors” hosted a family-friendly “Castle Garden” FYC event at the Grove in Los Angeles to celebrate the Emmy-winning series’ loyal fans. Kate Chastain, Trishelle Cannatella and Parvati Shallow arrived in style on top of the “Traitors Trolley” to dish the season 2 gossip with moderator Scott Evans (“Access Hollywood”) in front of a packed audience.

The second season of “The Traitors” featured recognizable celebs from reality TV programs like “Below Deck,” “The Challenge” and “Survivor,” plus sports stars and political leaders. The competition tasks regular players (the Faithfuls) with trying to identify who among them are actually murderers in plain sight (the Traitors). In Season 2, Trishelle and Chris “CT” Tamburello made it to the end as Faithfuls and split the prize pot of $208,100, while Kate and Parvati were both recruited as Traitors.

During the “Castle Garden” Q&A, the three ladies gave their thoughts on the just-announced cast of Season 3, including who they think will ultimately win the game when it airs on Peacock in early 2025.

“My money is on Dolores Catania from ‘Real Housewives of New Jersey,'” noted Kate. “She’s athletic. She knows when to talk and when not to talk. And she’s likable. There’s a popularity contest on the show! When I was murdering people, that’s how it was for me.”

Parvati chimed in that Jeremy Collins from “Survivor” was her pick, saying, “Jeremy has what it takes to win the game. He’s like the mayor. People are going to love him. He’s easy to get along with. I was on ‘Survivor’ with him — he’s good at putting heat on other people but he will make up a lie, he doesn’t care! You also think he’s a nice guy because he’s a firefighter and a dad, and you want to like him. But he will stab you in the back!”

Trishelle confirmed that she was “rooting for” either Dorinda or Ciara Miller. “But, I really want to see what’s going to happen with Tom Sandoval,” she added. “He has got to go first.”

Kate then declared, “I want to see him outside of the safety of the ‘Vanderpump,’ West Hollywood bubble where he doesn’t have his West Hollywood bars and cover band to hide behind. I’m going to enjoy that so much.”

In addition to the panel, “The Traitors” FYC event offered show-themed lawn games, fan trivia, meme Bingo, a lie-detector test, iced tea and cookies. Peacock notes that it was truly an afternoon “filled with treacherous delights!” See photos from the fun activation below:
