Season 4 of The Traitors is shaping up to be one for the ages. The cast is packed with 23 reality stars, athletes, and the mom of a famous football player. Host Alan Cumming had better prepare for this dramatic cast of characters. I will have my popcorn ready!
Last season, four Faithfuls split the prize pot. Dylan Efron and Bachelorette alum Gabby Windey, along with Lord Ivar Mountbatten and Real Housewives of New Jersey star Dolores Catania, claimed the cash prize. Could the fact that Dolores was the first Bravo star to win The Traitors bode well for the incoming contestants from Bravo?
Season 4 of The Traitors will feature five Real Housewives vying to win the cash prize of up to $250,000. During Season 3, the housewives had targets on their backs and were murdered by the Traitors. So, which Real Housewives could win the prize pot?
Which Real Housewives are on The Traitors cast for Season 4 and who could win?
This group of Real Housewives has potential. Candiace Dillard Bassett, formerly of The Real Housewives of Potomac, is adept at throwing shade. She is joined by Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum Lisa Rinna. It’s been a bit since we’ve seen Lisa on our screens, and I can’t wait to see her dancing around the castle.
In addition, Caroline Stanbury of The Real Housewives of Dubai is in the mix. Plus, Atlanta peach Porsha Williams is ready to root out any Traitors and will try to her best to keep the peace with Candiace.
Finally, Real Housewives of New York alum Dorinda Medley is back, baby! As you may recall, Dorinda was part of Season 3, but was the first Faithful to be murdered. She was dispatched before she was able to even play the game! However, now she is back and ready with a new game plan.
5. Lisa Rinna
Alas, I fear that Lisa is doomed. When discussing her strategic plans, Lisa revealed, “I don’t have a strategy of any kind, really. I mean, I would like to think I can spot a liar, but probably not.” However, Lisa is looking on the bright side. “Anyway, I’m gonna look cute.” Well, there’s that.
In an interview, Lisa explained what the game was like. “You’re playing this game. And it’s a mindf*ck,” she stated. “I really think it’s a game of luck.”
One of the reasons that Lisa most likely won’t make it to the end is her inability to control her temper and not shout at her co-stars. RHOBH fans know that Lisa has a history of speaking out and not being able to contain her thoughts. She is also prone to starting feuds, which made her an excellent housewife. However, that isn’t a bonus when trying to play a game in the shadows.
4. Porsha Williams
Porsha has one main strategy, and that is stay under the radar. Besides trying to figure out who is a Traitor, this Real Housewives of Atlanta star must also keep the peace with Candiace. These two ladies settled their beef a while back, but it sounds as if their feud may have reignited while in the Scottish Highlands.
We know that Candiace unfollowed Porsha on social media after filming wrapped on The Traitors. Later, Candiace confirmed that it was because of a comment that Porsha made on RHOA that rubbed Candiace the wrong way.
While Porsha has plenty of personality and a fun-loving side, she may not be the best judge of character. Of course, knowing who to trust and who to target is crucial in playing this game. In her real life, Porsha hasn’t always trusted the right people, so she may struggle in this competition.
3. Caroline Stanbury
Caroline is a British socialite and entrepreneur who burst onto our screens in Ladies of London. Later, she landed on RHODubai from 2022 until 2024. Sadly, the show was paused by Bravo. The series showcased her marriage to Sergio Carrallo, their hopes for growing their family, and their business ventures.
So, is this reality vet prepped and ready to enter the game? Yes, she is. Caroline had a plan going into the castle. “You keep your eye on the prize and backstab them at every turn,” she remarked. It sounds like Caroline found the perfect competition for her!
No doubt, Caroline will make some snarky comments about her fellow Traitors cast members. She already tossed Lisa under the bus in the Season 4 trailer. “Lisa would run her grandmother down,” Caroline stated.
I believe that Caroline will be able to manipulate others and will always have her ear to the ground. However, she isn’t tight with the other housewives on the cast. So, if the housewives don’t form an alliance, Caroline will need to find some allies in the castle.
2. Candiace Dillard Bassett
Candiace exited RHOP after Season 8 to focus on her family, including her son. Jett Maxwell Lee was born in October 2024. Of course, Candiace is remembered for her one-liners, wicked tongue, and her cryangle.
In a teaser for Season 4 of The Traitors, the singer was asked if she would prefer to follow the vote or lead the vote. “It’s going to depend,” Candiace stated. “Is the person I’m leading the vote on, are they vengeful? Are they mean, nasty, and rude?”
Meanwhile, Candiace isn’t afraid to confront others, and she can also gather intel easily. I have a gut feeling that she will play a pretty calm and quiet game until it is the right moment to step up and seize control.
However, Candiace teased one contestant who is going to get dressed down at The Traitors reunion. “I’ve already got it laid out: who’s going to get popped, who’s going to get it,” Candiace explained. “This one person is going to get it.” All in all, Candiace has an excellent chance of making it to the end.
1. Dorinda Medley
I think that Dorinda has what it takes to go all the way. I’m sure that Dorinda has learned from her brief foray into the castle last season. She was loud and confronted Ivar from the jump, which put the spotlight on her. Not only were fans saddened by the RHONY star’s exit, but Dorinda was heartbroken.
For her second time in Alan’s castle, she has a new strategy. “Instead of storming the castle, I think I’m just gonna slither in,” Dorinda stated in a teaser trailer. “Quietly.” That would be best.
While Dorinda can have a fiery temper, she can also be friendly and inquisitive. I think that Dorinda deserves a chance to play the game as a Traitor, because I think she would do a fantastic job of avoiding detection. She would make it nice in the turret!
After seeing how Season 3 unfolded, Dorinda has the advantage of being able to adjust her gameplay. In my opinion, Dorinda has the best chance of winning the prize pot during Season 4 of The Traitors.
The Traitors is available to stream on Peacock.
