Who is Tracey on The Traitors UK season 2?
THE highly-anticipated second series of The Traitors hit screens at the start of January 2024.
The popular BBC show, hosted by Claudia Winkleman, follows a group of contestants living in a remote Scottish castle as they battle it out in the hopes of taking home a cash prize.
Who is Tracey on The Traitors?
Tracey is a sonographer and clairvoyant from Inverness, Scotland, who also previously worked in the Royal Air Force.
She has admitted to being a huge fan of the first series of The Traitors and has even called it “the best game show” she had watched for ages.
Before her debut on the show, Tracey said: “Every day after I watched the series, I kept checking when I could apply for series two.
“I just knew I wanted to be on it and it just hit something with me, I thought, ‘I want to be on this.’
“It was mainly the psychology of it and meeting people that you don’t normally meet in your normal life.”
Is Tracey a Traitor or Faithful?
Claudia Winkleman chose the first three Traitors during the first episode of the show’s second series on BBC.
In dramatic scenes, the presenter was seen tapping who she had chosen on the shoulder at the round table, while all the contestants were blindfolded.
Tracey was not tapped on the shoulder, meaning she is playing the game as a Faithful.
This will no doubt come as a relief to the contestant, who had previously said she thought it “would be easier to be a Faithful.”
She explained: “You could just genuinely be yourself and you would need less of a game plan.
“You wouldn’t have to watch what you were saying constantly, or thinking that you’ve told a lie and trying to remember it.”
Who are The Traitors season 2 cast?

Players on the reality TV show must also try to make it to the end of the series if they want to be in with a chance of walking away with a share of the £120,000 cash prize.
Last year’s winners Aaron, Meryl, Hannah took home a share of the pot of £101,050 during their series finale.

Who are the Traitors in season 2?
The Traitors host Winkleman tapped the shoulders of Ash, Paul and Harry in the first episode of The Traitors series two, meaning they are playing the game as Traitors.
On the show, a small number of contestants are secretly be chosen to be Traitors while the rest of the cast remain as Faithfuls.
To come out as winners, the Traitors must work to sabotage the efforts of the Faithfuls while choosing which ones to “murder” off.
The Faithfuls, meanwhile, must try and uncover the identities of the Traitors among them and “banish” them from the castle.
Players only find out who is a Faithful and who is a Traitor after they have been banished, or at the end of the series.
Viewers watched as Ash, Paul and Harry recruited a fourth Traitor to their group during the series debut.
After much deliberation between the trio, veterinary nurse Miles also became a Traitor.
