The Traitors’ Ash breaks silence on her shock exit and admits fatal flaw to gameplan
TRAITOR Ash has spilled all on her exit after she was booted off the BBC show after just four episodes.
The 45 year old had been picked as one of the Traitors as the series kicked off but faced a series of shock betrayals from her fellow Traitors – Harry, Paul and Miles.
It ultimately saw her kicked out of the game for good as they helped to influence the group decision to select Ash as a traitor.
Now the star has spoken out on her early exit on BBC Two spin-off show Uncloaked, hosted by Ed Gamble.
Ash went onto admit that the Traitors’ gameplan was flawed after they ended up forcing themselves to be targeted.
As part of a shock twist, The Traitors were told they would not be murdering anyone and instead condemn four people to the basement and eventually murder one of them.
Paul and Ash opted to go alongside Andrew and Meg but a slew of twists ended up meaning that they possibly exposed their own game plan.
As the winners of the day’s mission had the chance to save one person – and they picked Andrew – it left two traitors and one faithful facing murder.
Traitors cannot kill each other so had Meg been banished at that day’s round table instead of Ash, the Traitors would have been exposed as no one would have been murdered.
Speaking out on their poor decision-making, Ash reflected: “We didn’t even consider that.
“Because we genuinely, honestly thought that people were going to save Paul, because they loved him.
“Everybody loved Paul and in my mind, I was thinking, when we were going down to the dungeon, I was thinking to myself, ‘this one needs to be close to me’.”
Host Ed then pointed out: “I think picking Andrew for the dungeon was the mistake because he is so popular.”
Ash then agreed as she said: “I think so.”
The twist appeared to fall flat after it ‘gave away’ the next contestant to be eliminated.
Commenting online, one fan wrote: “This twist is a mess because they sent 2 traitors to the dungeon. Now we know Meg will be the next murdered.”
Another added: “Okay so if Andrew’s safe and the other two are traitors that means Meg is definitely going tonight yeah?”
As a third echoed: “So we know Meg is going as well.”
Someone else penned: “Meg is dead anyway, right? She’s the only one the Traitors can murder!”
