The Traitors UK: Everything To Know About Charlotte

Her reasoning? Because it is deemed 'the most trustworthy' of the UK accents. It sounds simple enough but Charlotte has had to maintain her fake identity during the missions, the tense round table debates and while chatting and getting to know the fellow contestants in and around the castle.

It's a big undertaking, and one that nearly got her rumbled in the first few days. When Charlotte's name popped up during the first few episodes, she was so taken aback that she found herself crying and saying she's only being herself. While that's not strictly true, she's safe for now...

Charlotte is a business director from London, though she has recently moved to Hampshire. 'I have loved the show since the very start and think it would be such a fun thing to take part in,' she explained. 'A real "money can’t buy" experience getting to play the game.'

Why did Charlotte apply to be on The Traitors?

'I applied to go on series two after series one as I was such a fan from the very beginning! But I didn't hear anything back. I think series two benefited from everyone really understanding and playing the game. What I love is not only the main game, which is amazing, but all the undercurrents of secrets - I gasped when the Diane/Ross connection was revealed! It’s just such a great show,' she continued.

'I’ve loved chatting about it and dissecting it with friends and colleagues, so to be actually going on it... it’s very surreal but so exciting!'

Charlotte says if she won she would put the money towards fertility treatment, which she is starting soon. Alternatively, she'd love to go on a safari holiday, or to redecorate her new house.

Why is Charlotte doing a fake Welsh accent?

Charlotte has committed to putting on a fake Welsh accent for the whole series because she thinks it is perceived as a trustworthy accent. She is pretending to be from Abergavenny in South Wales, although her mother is actually Welsh, and she managed to fool the real life Welsh contestant Elen.

However, the move has rubbed some Welsh viewers up the wrong way. One fan, Holly Ford, told NME, 'It just irritated me, to be honest. From being excited to see someone like me on the screen to then hearing it’s a lie, it’s just strange. It’s just appropriation for no apparent reason, with no regard for South Welsh people!'

How old is Charlotte from The Traitors UK?

Charlotte is 33 years old, but she was 32 during filming.

Is Charlotte a Traitor or a Faithful on The Traitors UK?
