'I had to find out who the Traitors are on the group WhatsApp as a result of no one would tell me'
Even after leaving the game, by means of being banished or murdered, the contestants weren't officially informed by producers who the Traitors really have been.
So, they had to determine it out for themselves, with Rayan admitting he only came upon on a gaggle chat after his exit.
He stated: 'As soon as you come out, there's type of like decompression and then when you're in your method residence, you get back and also you flip on your phone, and also you get a number of days value of texts abruptly, and then the others who've already been out have added your Instagram and WhatsApp and stuff, and then you definitely get into the group chat.

'The meals was probably the most surprising secret'
As the new collection has begun airing, some former contestants have revealed what life on the show was actually like, including the food.
While it all appears fairly mouth-watering, and breakfasts appear to include pastries, eggs, toast, marmalade, and served up with some drama, it's not all as it seems.
Trustworthy Ivan Brett wrote on X: 'I'm sorry guys, it's time to return clear and leak something surprising about #TheTraitors.
'It pains me to inform you, but that breakfast is REALLY DRY AND NOT VERY NICE.'
'We didn't have any breaks from filming'
While we know exhibits like Love Island have a day without work filming, Rayan shared that The Traitors had no breaks, not even during meal occasions, which is definitely when some of the most dramatic moments happened.
Rayan stated: 'In my last episode, I've an entire chat [after the Traitors started accusing me] with Fay [Greaves], and it just gets frustrating.
'For those who look around, you in all probability see the plate as a result of I vividly keep in mind consuming fried hen while having a dialog with Fay and Aaron.
'There's by no means actually a break, and typically they only gained't be filming for no matter cause, if they don't actually need to, and typically they will be filming, there's no set rule.'
Rayan elsewhere stated that they weren't informed by producers that they weren't filming, including: 'You'll be able to simply assume by the truth that if there's no cameras within the room, you'll be able to type of guess.'
'There was a reasonably strict alcohol limit – however we discovered a means round it'
Like plenty of other reality programmes, The Traitors had guidelines about alcohol, which, based on Rayan have been 'clear'.
He stated: 'You're allowed one glass of wine or like one drink. It's a glass of wine or a pint of beer on the end of the day, after the roundtable, after any missions as a result of you possibly can't do missions drunk, and that's the only factor you're allowed.'
Nevertheless, he did say 'negotiations' occurred for an extra drink within the contestants' rooms, saying: 'In the event you negotiate your means round this, you're allowed one additional glass once you're again to your lodgings, you possibly can have a cheeky additional glass however that is it so there's a reasonably strict alcohol restrict.

Rayan stated: 'I feel her position is absolutely what you see on TV, she's been sensible. She's only a help, like you've acquired to be detached as a result of if she's too shut, she may danger by accident giving one thing away. She's acquired to be tremendous stoned face, however at the similar time she was sensible and she or he was really supportive.
