The line-up for this year’s ‘Celebrity Traitors’ cast has left fans giddy, with ‘big dogs’, comedy royalty and the genius combination of Ross Kemp and James Blunt. But where are the straight-talking, luvvie-immune sports stars like last year’s breakout hero Joe Marler?

Never has reality TV boasted a starrier line-up than this year’s Celebrity Traitors. The inaugural star cast from 2025 was already something special – from Stephen Fry and Jonathan Ross to Celia Imrie and Charlotte Church – but the latest edition makes it look measly.
There are the thesps (Richard E Grant, Michael Sheen, Bella Ramsey, Myha’la), the comedians (Miranda Hart, Romesh Ranganathan, James Acaster, Joe Lycett), the pop stars (Leigh-Anne Pinnock, James Blunt), and the presenters (Maya Jama, Amol Rajan, Hannah Fry). Twenty-one names, all genuine coups.
