Traitors star reveals civilian cast didn’t get same fancy meals as Celebrity Traitors stars

A contestant from the first series, who first described life in the castle, claims that the Celebrity Traitors receive better meal options than their civilian counterparts.

As fans watch the first batch of UK celebrities take on The Traitors castle, one former contestant admits they appear to being getting treated very differently. As the famous faces currently on screen are seen tucking into lavish lunches, ex star of the civilian version, Rayan Rachedi, has confirmed this certainly wasn’t the case on his series.

The Londoner appeared on the first series of the hit BBC reality show and finished a lowly 13th. Taking to Twitter /X, Rayan uploaded an image of the stars with large portions of steak at dinner time.

He commented: “I can assure you steak was NOT an option at dinner for the non-celebrity series. #CelebrityTraitors ” He then added a crying emoji face.

Fans quickly discovered the delicacies. One user emailed a broken heart emoji and said, “oh these celebs are having it gooooddddddddddd”.

Rayan jokingly said that while being famous, he “couldn’t be a**ed” to be famous, thinking about it. When another person questioned what was being served up, he responded, “Some proteins (usually chicken for meat eaters) are served up.”

“Some greens, occasionally a little fun, like mac and cheese or enchiladas (I really liked these), or fried chicken (I didn’t like this because I was about to be rejected)” I’d say 7/10. “

The current celeb series has seen fans watch on as twist after twist hits the screen. The drama has left viewers on the edge of their seats, with Wednesday’s edition seeing Charlotte Church be the latest murdered star.

The singer wanted to meet Jonathan Ross. However, Wossy received the most votes at the roundtable thanks to Mark Bonnar and David Olusoga.

A second round of votes ended in a draw, giving the episode a nailbiting cliffhanger. The fate of Mark and David would then be decided by “chance,” Claudia said.

It was declared as the ‘best episode ever’ after the series’ major first in the format. Viewers instantly rushed to social media to voice their opinions, with one user writing: “The banishment by fate twist has always been in the rules but I never thought we’d ever see it in action. Absolute cinema. #CelebrityTraitors.”

One of the best traitors episodes I’ve seen, another person said. I’m looking forward to tomorrow.

Fans are left to wonder what star power will be on tonight’s edition. Some people questioned whether a coin toss was possible, but others remembered the Death Card twist from the previous season.

The final two players in the game had to choose one of the cards that were left out in front of them. Their game was over if they had chosen the one death card.

Chepngetich retains women’s marathon world record despite three-year ban

Ruth Chepngetich, the reigning Kenyan woman’s marathon world record holder, was given a three-year suspension on Thursday after she admitted breaking the anti-doping rules. However, her 2: 09: 56 record will continue to be recorded as it was before her positive test.

After hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) was found in a urine sample taken from the athlete on March 14, Chepngetich, who broke the record in Chicago in October, was subject to a provisional suspension by the Athletics Integrity Unit (AIU) in July of this year.

The sample revealed a HCTZ concentration of 3,800 ng/mL, which is significantly higher than the 20ng/mL minimum reporting level set by the World Anti-Doping Agency.

Chepngetich, 31, initially denied any wrongdoing and was unable to explain the positive outcome despite an AIU investigation that included analysis of her supplements, phone data, and medications.

Chepngetich alters the positive test explanation

Chepngetich changed her explanation on July 31 to claim that she had unintentionally taken the HCTZ medication her housemaid had taken while she was ill.

According to a statement from the AIU, “She stated that she had forgotten to tell the AIU investigators about this incident.”

The AIU notes that diuretics may be used to conceal the presence of other prohibited substances in urine. HCTZ is used clinically to treat hypertension and fluid retention.

The AIU initially issued a four-year sanction, claiming Chepngetich’s actions were reckless and indirectly intentional rather than accidental.

However, Chepngetich’s early admission resulted in a three-year ban on September 10 and a one-year reduction.

The AIU will continue to look into the suspicious materials recovered from Chepngetich’s phone to see if any other violations have occurred, according to AIU head Brett Clothier, whose case involving the positive HCTZ test has been resolved.

All Chepngetich’s accomplishments and records are currently dated before the sample stand on March 14, 2025.

Chepngetich’s representative has been in contact with Reuters for comment.

Doping cases with a high profile

Chepngetich announced her withdrawal from the London Marathon in April, claiming she was “not mentally or physically ready to run her best.” However, at the time, she had chosen a voluntarily-provisional suspension.

In recent years, Kenya, a country known for its middle and long-distance runners, has been the victim of a number of well-known doping cases.

The middle- and long-distance running powerhouse avoided a ban in November 2022 despite having more and more of its athletes receive suspensions for positive tests.

According to Athletics Kenya, the country’s government has pledged $5 million annually for five years to combat doping in the sport.

After it was discovered that the former Tokyo Marathon winner had broken anti-doping laws a second time with her return of a negative testosterone analysis finding, Kenya’s Sarah Chepchirchir was given an eight-year ban in February 2024.

Four out of ten people believe that having more ease in their own home when things are done right.
