Kate Garraway has revealed which celebrity hasn’t joined the Celebrity Traitors WhatsApp group chat amid rumours of a cast feud.

The BBC series wrapped filming in early May 2025, with the finale set to air on November 6.

Several cast members have kept in touch through a group chat. However, the broadcaster, 58, has now revealed who declined the invite.

Speaking to The Sun, Kate said: ‘The WhatsApp group is popping off all day and night, actually. It’s brilliant.

‘We invited Claudia [Winkleman] to join the group because we all adore Claudia, obviously. But she said no.

‘She said, “you need a place that’s just for you guys now that you’re out and you know what’s going on.”‘

Kate also admitted that there was a lot she didn’t know about the dynamics on the show, which she only learned by watching it, including comments made when she wasn’t in the room.

Elsewhere in the interview, she admitted she’s not fully aware of the friendships among some cast members.

However, she noted that Alan Carr hasn’t said anything negative about Paloma Faith to her, so she isn’t sure if they have fallen out.

She also added that the cast once got together and both Jonathan Ross and Ruth Codd seemed ‘fine’ to her during that meet-up.

The new interview comes after Ruth ‘lashed out’ and called Jonathan a ‘f***ing snake’ after being murdered during a behind-the-scenes meltdown, the Daily Mail revealed earlier this week.

Sources on the show revealed to the Daily Mail that the Irish actress, 29, was ‘furious’ after being eliminated early in the series and took out her anger on presenter Jonathan, 64, who she correctly guessed was a Traitor before he took his revenge.

An insider explained that Ruth was genuinely ‘angry’ and described it as a ‘f***ing joke’ that she had been cast out in the early stages of the competition.

Ruth, known for her roles in Netflix series The Midnight Club and The Fall of the House of Usher, became the third contestant to leave after calling out Jonathan as her top suspect during the roundtable.

She continued: ‘We invited Claudia to join the group because we all adore Claudia, obviously. But she said no. She said you need a place that’s just for you guys now that you’re out and you know what’s going on’

She was sent packing following the elimination of singer Paloma Faith by her former close friend Alan Carr and his accomplice, Cat Burns, as well as Olympic diver Tom Daley.

It comes after Ruth said there was an ‘unspoken hierarchy’ on the show that ‘placed certain people, like myself, at a disadvantage’ because, unlike some showbiz veterans such as Jonathan, she hasn’t been in the industry very long.

A TV insider revealed: ‘Ruth was furious after she was murdered during the early stages of filming.

‘She called Jonathan a “f***ing snake” and really let go of her anger behind the scenes.

‘There was definitely frustration from Ruth that her co-stars weren’t listening to her after she correctly identified Jonathan as a Traitor.

‘Ruth felt that not many of the celebrities were following their own instincts and minds, which meant the game wasn’t always played properly.

‘It was a shame for her to be murdered so early in the competition when she had a lot more to give.’

Meanwhile, Traitor Alan risked his friendship with Paloma by murdering her first in the game, despite their closeness in real life.

The Celebrity Traitors meltdown you DIDN’T see: How star branded Jonathan Ross a ‘f***ing snake’ and lashed out at BBC cast members in EXPLOSIVE behind-the-scenes rant

Paloma, who last week revealed she is expecting her third baby, has expressed her shock and upset on social media since the scenes aired.

In his latest podcast episode, Alan explained how he and Paloma are no longer friends.

Speaking to Norman Cook, aka Fatboy Slim, he said: ‘Well, I’m a Traitor init and I’m killing people willy nilly. I’ve got a real taste for it.

‘It’s out on the telly now, I had to keep it secret for months, and I am killing people, I’ve killed Paloma Faith, Tom Daley, I can’t stop killing.’

When Norman questioned him, ‘Aren’t you mates with Paloma?’ he replied: ‘She’s not happy about it. There’s been a few, let’s say, TikTok things where she says I’ve let her down because I killed her in plain sight.

‘I was desperate, and she went if you were a real friend, you wouldn’t have killed me. But I said I’m the Traitor, the show’s called the Traitors.

‘It’s like going on Naked Attraction and being told, “What I have to take my knickers off?” You know, it does what it says on the tin.’

Jonathan has also spoken out about how he found being a Traitor and lying to his co-stars’ faces challenging to navigate.

He said he has even warned other celebrity friends against appearing in a second series, due to how difficult he found the experience.

Jonathan explained: ‘I know they’re already planning a second celebrity version.

‘I know because I’ve had two celebrity friends of mine call me and say, “I’ve been approached, is it good to do, it is bad to do?” So I’m giving them the benefit of my experience, which was I didn’t enjoy it.’
