Actor Sebastian Croft won Celebrity Traitors by identifying the final traitor King Kenny, securing £41,500 for Choose Love.

Sebastian Croft, the 24-year-old actor known for his role in Heartstopper, has won Celebrity Traitors alongside comedian Romesh Ranganathan. The pair secured £41,500 for the charity Choose Love after correctly identifying King Kenny as the remaining traitor in the final moments of the show.

Croft revealed that he changed tactics only an hour and a half before the end. He wrote a list of actions taken by James Blunt, Romesh Ranganathan and King Kenny since Hannah Fry's banishment and the traitors' last recruitment. Ranganathan's list was lengthy and James Blunt's was even longer, but Kenny's was almost non-existent. When the game reached four players, Kenny voted to end it, which confirmed to Croft that he was the traitor.

Croft admitted he was initially disappointed to be chosen as a faithful rather than a traitor, saying he believed he would have had a better chance of winning in that role. As a faithful, his main concern was being murdered during the game. He said he was now thrilled with his role on the show.
