Fans have now reacted to Rachel and Stephen’s win.

Writing on X, one gushed: “So happy Rachel & Stephen deserved to win brilliant traitors!”

Another added: “So happy for these 2, was worried at start but their bond got stronger & stronger. They stuck together throughout & got the reward. Best traitor duo EVER?”

And a third penned: “How fitting that the two most faithful Traitors that have been on the show last until the end and win together. Amazing to watch.#TheTraitors has been fantastic once again.”

The Traitors: What happened in the final

The final picked up exactly where the last episode left off, with a brutal cliffhanger hanging over the Round Table.

James Baker and Rachel were locked in a deadlock, forcing Claudia to bring out the chests of chance to decide their fate.

When the boxes were opened, James found his was empty. Rachel revealed an immunity shield, sealing his exit from the game.

That meant James was banished from the game and Rachel moved forward with fellow Traitor Stephen and Faithfuls Faraaz, Jade and Jack.

The next morning, the remaining players faced their final Mission. Split into two teams, they raced to collect cash from floating pontoons before scaling a towering dam wall to meet Claudia.
