Arie Luyendyk Jr. Shares Small Salary From Traitors
Former Bachelor Arie Luyendyk Jr. appeared on Season 1 of The Traitors which premiered in January 2023 on Peacock. From time to time he shares some tidbits about his thoughts on Season 2 and also about his own time on the show.
In a recent Q&A on Instagram, Arie was asked if there are any secrets he can share from Season 1. He shared a list of things for eager fans. One thing he shared is that the cast did not actually stay at the castle, they stayed at a hotel. He also revealed filming was very long and generally lasted 18-20 hours each day. Filming lasted four weeks.
Arie then got personal and shared some salary information. He said, “Barely got paid which I didn’t mind but some cast [members] only made $1,000. Rumored season 2 cast pay was in the triple figures haha.”
He also shared that two of the original cast members were taken out of the competition because of Covid. Arie said, “C*vid eliminated 2 cast members and we had to reshoot the entire first episode. Original episode we came in on a train (same train from Harry Potter) but they had to cut it all because of the cast member who got sick.”
Is He In Touch With The Season 1 Winner?
Arie Luyendyk Jr. also revealed if he is in touch with Season 1 winner Cirie Fields. He shared that he was not and had not spoken to her after she betrayed him to win the $250,000. Arie said, “She won it in a dirty way in my opinion but she has to live with that and that’s all I’ll really say.”
Ultimately, Arie self-eliminated from his season.
Everything else in Arie’s life is great. He and Lauren have three beautiful children and a happy marriage.
They were one of the lucky Bachelor couples to make it.
