Two years after winning The Traitors, Meryl Williams reveals the intensity and challenges of the popular reality show. She discusses the extended round table sessions, the emotional and physical strain, and the precautions taken to keep the 'murder' process secret.
It’s been two years since Edinburgh's Meryl Williams took home victory as a Faithful on the first season of The Traitors , alongside Aaron Evans and Hannah Byczkowski.
In an exclusive chat with Betway, Meryl, 28, said: "It's so, so intense. The round table is also a lot longer than what’s shown on the show. "Obviously the show is an hour long, but you are sitting around the table for I’d say a couple of hours. When you go back to your room you literally just sleep because it's so emotionally and physically draining.
Meryl, who was born and brought up in South Africa but moved to Scotland as a youngster, admitted that cast members don't spend much time with host Claudia Winkleman. “I was very jealous of her having people come in to do her hair and makeup. She would have makeup artists and stylists coming in. We were just staring at her in awe whilst she was getting her touch ups - like ‘can I have one too, please?’”
Meryl's life changed forever after her appearance on the BBC show, as she'd hoped it would, so current contestants could be in for a wild ride when this run finishes.
