Who Won The Traitors? All About The Traitors Season 3 Finale (Recap)
There was a lot of drama, surprises, and a thrilling Fire of Truth in the final episode of the season!
This story contains spoilers for The Traitors Season 3 finale, Episode 11, "The Day of Reckoning Is Upon Us."
After a season of messy Traitoring, Danielle Reyes (Big Brother) — the last standing original Traitor of Season 3 — found herself blindsided by the player who did her dirty before... Britney Haynes (Big Brother).
While Britney looked broken about sending her former nemesis home again, in truth, Danielle choosing to take her to the end as her "ride or die" proved a fatal mistake, especially after her showdown with fellow Traitor Carolyn Wiger (Survivor) at last week's Round Table.

Here are all the important highlights from the third season finale of The Traitors:
Who was The Seer on The Traitors Season 3?
There was a lot of buildup about who won the coveted Seer title last week, and it was finally revealed by host Alan Cumming after Danielle's banishment that Britney had earned it. She was then allowed to invite one player to dinner to reveal if they were a Traitor or a Faithful.

Audiences knew Britney was the last Traitor in the game, but it was fascinating to watch her have to amp up her social game by choosing Gabby Windey and trying to convince her that she was also a Faithful who "caught" a Traitor in voting for Danielle.
Honestly, Britney proved very convincing and Gabby walked away from their intimate dinner a bit swayed, though still concerned she would be framed as a Traitor at the next breakfast. But Britney went for the truth and then spent the rest of the episode trying to sway Gabby and Dolores Catania into believing that Dylan Efron was a Traitor in Faithful clothing all along!
Britney vs. Dylan: The final Round Table showdown
Very tricky for Alan to make the last Mission a bonding experience amongst the final five as they were, among other things, hoisted up in a helicopter and made to throw money bags to the ground. Who survives that and doesn't land with warm fuzzies for the person dangling next to them?

The allegiance-muddying task meant Britney came into the final Round Table guns blazing, determined to make Dylan the bad guy. In fact, she was exhibiting some Wes Bergmann levels of antagonism toward everyone's favorite son Dylan, which really put off Lord Ivar, Dolores, Gabby, and Dylan, who was not expecting the flaming receipts coming at him from the other side of the table.
Was it too much? We'll find out at the reunion if Britney took it too far, or if Dylan's believability was just too solid. But Britney ended up getting a unanimous vote against her and was Banished from the game.
Who won The Traitors Season 3?
For the first time in U.S. The Traitors history, the Faithful pulled out a season win; and in this case, a four-way Faithful split.
After banishing Britney at the final Round Table — where she wasn't allowed to reveal her allegiance as she walked out — Dylan managed to successfully convince Gabby, Dolores, and Lord Ivar that he was truly Faithful... and they voted to end the game accordingly in a single round. A unanimous vote meant they all won and would split the prize pot of $204,300, which felt like an actual win for the good guys!
All episodes of The Traitors Seasons 1, 2, and 3 are available to stream right now on Peacock.
