The Traitors made a return to our TV screens on Wednesday (January 15) night, leaving viewers stunned after loyal contestant Fozia was axed by the two traitors.

Minah, 29, and Linda, 70, were the only two Traitors left in the competition after Armani was banished from the castle.

In a cliff-hanger from last week, Fozia and Leon were pit against each other in a bid to avoid elimination, after they were marked for death alongside fellow contestants Alexander and Anna.

In a tense scene, Leon came out on top, which meant Fozia’s time on the show was up. Before she left, she came face-to-face with Linda and Minah.

Upon discovering the 'true' identity of the traitors, Fozia confronted Linda, declaring: "I knew it was you Linda, you won't get away with this," Hitting back at Fozia, Linda shouted at her to 'get over it' as she walked away and went back to the castle.

Fozia's predictions came true as, during a tense round table, Linda was exposed as a Traitor and was banished from the show after securing the majority of votes. Things took a shocking turn as her fellow Traitor, Minah betrayed her by casting a vote against Linda.

Leaving the game, Linda said: "I've had the most amazing time, this has been the pinnacle of my life and to experience this at my age and get this far, I've had a whale of a time, so thanks for it."

Yet, the drama didn't end there as Linda and Fozia have since come face-to-face on spin-off show Uncloaked. Reuniting for the first time, the pair shared a hug as Fozia went on to say: “I’m so happy to see you.”

Things took an awkward turn and Fozia didn’t hold back as she continued: “I’m looking forward to seeing a few of the others but I was waiting for a slippery snake to come through that door.”

The pair burst out laughing as Fozia added: “You’re not like an evil Traitor, if you know what I mean. Does that make sense?”

Linda attempted to defend herself as she replied: “I’m not evil.” Fozia agreed: “No, You’re not.”
