The Traitors’ first contestant to get the axe from the show was revealed – and it was Aubrey.
The iconic BBC tense psychological show returned for its second series this week. Fronted by Claudia Winkleman, the programme welcomed a brand new batch of 22 strangers, also known as Faithfuls, hoping to bag £120,00.
However, hidden amongst the Faithfuls are the Traitors, who must secretly ‘kill’ one player every night without getting caught by the Faithfuls. The Faithfuls must try to figure out who the Traitors are and eliminate them from the game.

In the first episode, host Claudia chose Paul, Ash and Harry to be the Traitors. They then recruited co-star Miles to join them. And in Thursday’s show (January 4) the gang were tasked to choose someone to ‘kill’.
After much deliberation, they chose Aubrey – which meant his time on the show was over. And fans were not too happy with the decision. On X, formerly known as Twitter, one person said: “Aubrey would have been fun.. poor guy! robbed.”
Someone else added: “Aww not Aubrey.” A third chimed in and penned: “Aubrey would’ve been a STAR we’ve been robbed.” Another proclaimed: “Not Aubrey! I’m turning off now.”
Echoing their thoughts, a fifth wrote: “F***s sake Aubrey was the best one there.” A sixth penned: “Well that’s me done then.”
Aubrey found out he had gotten the boot via a letter which let him know he had been ‘murdered.’ Aubrey said: ‘I think I’ve been murdered because I’m too observant. I was a threat to The Traitors and they could see that. I say what I see, they’ve made a big mistake.

Explaining their reason for ‘killing’ him, Miles noted: “Aubrey watches from a distance, he’s been in the game plan since day one.” Harry then agreed: “This what we don’t want is the separate groups.
“I think it sends a message. I don’t think anyone expects us who are here right now to chose Aubrey,” he added. While Ash mused: “We have to take out the strongest link first.”
