Fans Outraged At Bachelor Nation Star Cast On ‘Traitors’ Season 4
Peacock debuted its reality show The Traitors in 2023 amid major fanfare. The reality show locked celebrities and ‘normal’ people in a castle. The only way out was to banishment, murdered, or winning the season. When the show returned for Season 2, it was only celebrities. That trend continued through Season 3.
Season 4 will premiere in early 2026. Fans have been speculating online about who might join the show for the new season. The rumored cast list of Season 4 leaked online. Bachelor Nation fans expressed outrage over one name on the list.
Real Housewives Star Allegedly Dropped Out Of Traitors Amid Salary Dispute
Everyone wants to know who will be on Season 4 of The Traitors. But Peacock has stayed mum so far. Alan Cumming, who hosts the show, revealed the Season 3 cast himself in a video. Will he do the same for the new season?
It has long been rumored that four stars from Bravo’s Real Housewives franchise would compete on Season 4 of Traitors. However, new gossip suggested that one rumored cast member, NeNe Leakes from The Real Housewives of Atlanta, had been replaced after a salary dispute. Bachelor star Arie Luyendyk Jr. was the runner-up on the first season of Traitors. He revealed after the show that the pay for the first season was very low, and some contestants only got $1,000. However, he claimed that the Season 2 contestants were paid six figures. The exact salary of the competitors on the Peacock reality show isn’t known. But rumor has it that NeNe was replaced with fellow RHOA star Porsha Williams. Who else is rumored to be on Season 4?

Fans Outraged At Bachelor Nation Star Cast On New Season
But a lot of fans don’t want to see Colton Underwood on the show. He came out as gay a few years after his Bachelor season ended. He’s now married to Jordan C. Brown. But his sexuality has nothing to do with why fans are outraged.
He left The Bachelor in a relationship with Cassie Randall. They dated for over a year before breaking up. The split seemed to be on good terms. So, fans were completely shocked in October 2020 when she filed for a restraining order against him. She also filed a police report that alleged he was stalking her and placed a tracking device on her car.
She dropped the charges and the restraining order shortly afterward. Colton Underwood basically admitted it was all true on his Netflix series, Coming Out Colton.
Fans took to social media to rage against his rumored casting on The Traitors. One Bachelor Nation fan wrote, “Look, I’m all for a reality tv villain, but if someone does actual dangerous criminal sh** outside of the show, I feel like that should disqualify them from being on our screens again.”
Demi Burnett, who was a contestant on his season, took to Twitter to call out the decision. “COLTON ON THE TRAITORS BEFORE ME….. OK IM GUNNA STALK AND HARASS PPL SO I CAN GET CAST,” she tweeted.
