Comedian Romesh Ranganathan and actor Sebastian Croft have won the 2026 series of The Celebrity Traitors as faithfuls.

The pair were the last two remaining at the firepit at the end of the BBC reality gameshow, with the players having voted out traitor and TV presenter Maya Jama during the final roundtable, with her fellow traitor, social media star King Kenny, sealing her fate.

Speaking as they revealed their identities, Croft told Ranganathan: “I began this game as a faithful, but I’m ending this game as a faithful.”

 Ranganathan said: “Bash, I began this game as a faithful, and I’m ending this game as a faithful.” 

The pair then cheered and embraced shouting “oh my God”.

It came after all contestants decided to banish again in the first round at the firepit, with former Little Mix star Leigh-Anne Pinnock receiving the most votes and being banished, with all of her fellow players voting for her.

Players chose to banish again in the second round, with Ranganathan saying he thought singer James Blunt was a remaining traitor with the You’re Beautiful singer replying that he was “entirely wrong”, but Kenny opted to end the game.

The second banishment saw two votes each for Blunt and Kenny, splitting the vote, leaving Ranganathan and Croft to vote again to try and break the deadlock, eventually deciding to banish Kenny.

Players were then given the option to banish again, with Blunt choosing to banish again despite Ranganathan saying his conversation with Croft had changed his mind on whether he was a faithful or a traitor.

Both Ranganathan and Croft voted Blunt out, with the singer explaining his actions by saying Ranganathan had “left a question mark in my head”.

It comes after actor Michael Sheen was murdered at the beginning of the final.
