Niamh said: “Why is there so much hate for Wilf? The whole purpose of the show is that he had to fake being a faithful and lie throughout… he did his job really well and deserved the win just as much as the others. Some people really take this too seriously.. #TheTraitors ” Rash said: “Am I the only one that’s disappointed at their reaction to Wilf??I mean he literally made them his bff’s so they never vote him out &was absolutely going for the win! Oh &the fake acting at the end “I’m so happy for you guys”.”
Who said: “wilf is a massive red flag. one minute he got so stressed when he knew he wasn’t gonna win, the minute after he claimed to be happy to have lost the money. soooo fake #TheTraitors ” Gem Rose said: “Sooo glad Wilf didn’t win, he was just a fake person from start to finish, I don’t buy that he felt bad about any of it, he’s not that good an actor. The three winners seem deserving.”
“Pleased those 3 won but hope they realise they wouldn’t have a penny if it hadn’t been for Kieran …… & Wilf’s ultimatum which was so obviously fake,” Clare said.
