Comedian Alan Carr, 49, emerged victorious on Celebrity Traitors after a tense final where he successfully concealed his Traitor role from the rest of the contestants. His win followed a dramatic moment where he "murdered" fellow contestant Paloma Faith on the show.
After the episode aired, Alan appeared on the spin-off show Uncloaked alongside the other cast members. There, he expressed deep remorse for deceiving his friends, especially Paloma Faith, 44, who he chose as his first victim.
"The thing is, when I killed Paloma I felt sick inside. And you've got to remember, it was such a cruel twist to touch someone's face."
The comedian explained how he symbolically "murdered" the pregnant singer by touching her face with pollen from a fake poisoned lily, which caused anger over the betrayal. Speaking to host Ed Gamble, Alan admitted feeling "awful" about the move but insisted he had no alternative but to select his close friend as a target.
His public apology highlighted the emotional complexity of playing the Traitor while balancing friendship and competition.
