The Traitors star Ross Carson has become one of the most composed contestants on the show with his easygoing nature and openness, despite having to subtly say goodbye to his team player and mum Diane.
During Wednesday night’s eerie episode (17 January) viewers were left “heartbroken” as Diane left the show after drinking from the ‘poisoned chalice’ that was handed over to her by Traitor Miles during a secret mission.
It not only saw the end of the road for Diane, who became a fan favourite on the show, but her departure also meant Ross had to subtly say goodbye to his mum, after keeping their relationship a secret.
