The finale of The Traitors UK Season 3, which aired on January 24, 2025, concluded a season full of strategy and twists. Starting with five Faithfuls, the group quickly narrowed to four: Leanne, Jake, Alexander, and Frankie, competing for a £94,600 prize.
During the final showdown, Frankie suspected Charlotte was a Traitor but lacked evidence to prove it. Tensions peaked at the Round Table, leading to Charlotte's banishment. However, under new finale rules, her true identity remained undisclosed.
In next rounds of voting, Alexander and Frankie were eliminated, leaving Jake and Leanne as the last two standing. Together, they declared the game over and split the winnings, marking Jake as one of the winners.
Fans have since taken to social media platform X, to share their reactions to Jake’s victory. While some celebrated the outcome, others expressed disappointment, suggesting that "greed" influenced key decisions in the finale.
"Pretty sure that Jake/Leanne knew Frankie wasn't a traitor either... and just wanted a bigger share of the winnings. Greed is a thing," one fan commented.
"even Claudia got emotional at Francesca being banished… leanne and jake are genuinely the most selfish people i’ve seen. all for more money," another user said.
"Leanne and Jake knew Frankie was faithful. They just wanted more prize money for themselves," an X user wrote.
"Leanne and Jake won the Traitors but Minah and Frankie won the season and I hope they know that," one tweet said.
Some fans of the show, The Traitors UK expressed they were "glad" about Jake winning and questioned why he was receiving all the "hate."
"Glad Jake won. Not 100% understanding the hate he's getting. Frankie being suspicious of him was weird & that look she gave him at the end was out of order. Leanne I'm not so much happy for but mainly gutted Alex walked away empty-handed," - a fan wrote.
"Jake had to be involved in the final two he fished out so many of the traitors I’m glad Leanne stuck with her gut," one netizen tweeted.
"Turned out to be an incredible twist. Well done, Jake & Leanne," an X user said.
"What a win glad Jake won as well couldn't believe that he made it to the end," a person commented.
