All eyes on Ellie and Jessie as Traitors viewers spot some serious frost
Will Jessie ever learn the truth?The Traitors fans believe there’s some serious tension between Faithful’s Ellie and Jessie on this year’s series.
Jessie has made it her mission in this year’s series to catch the Traitor who framed Ross. However, unbeknownst to her, Ellie is his girlfriend!
Ellie and Jessie’s mission to avenge Ross on The Traitors
This series was a rough ride for Ross.
The 37-year-old’s game plan went out the window within minutes of arriving at the castle, as he was reunited with familiar face, Netty, a friend he hadn’t seen in over a decade.
Suspicion was cast on him immediately, and the heat increased when Netty was murdered.
Despite protesting his innocence, the Faithful weren’t convinced. During a chat with his fellow players, Ben, who had been vocal in his suspicions of Ross, told them that if he were murdered, to look at Ross.
Sure enough, the Traitors – Hugo, Rachel, and Stephen – murdered Ben in a bid to frame Ross. It worked, with Ross being banished not long after.
However, after it emerged that Ross was a Faithful, Jessie, who had been part of the chat with Ben, made it her mission to figure out who had framed Ross.
Jessie gets revenge
Tratior Stephen came under much heat from Jessie, as he was in the room with them during the chat with Ben. However, secret Traitor Fiona was too.
Last night, Fiona was banished, which seemingly confirmed to Jessie that she’d caught the Traitor who had framed Ross.
“I have a use!” she cheered afterwards.
However, what Jessie doesn’t know is that Ross’ girlfriend, Ellie, is in the castle with her – a fact some viewers find hilarious, especially considering how vocal Jessie has been about wanting to avenge his banishment.
Fans in stitches
Taking to Twitter, fans were in stitches over the bizarre situation.
“Cringes me out how obsessed Jessie is with Ross, and Ellie is sitting there like that’s my boyfriend [laughing emojis],” one fan tweeted.
Another shared a picture of a woman glaring, with the caption: “Ellie hearing Jessie still harping on about Ross days after he left.”

“Jessie going harder for her revenge for Ross than his bloody gf Ellie!!” a third wrote.
“The way Jessie has been defending Ross, you’d think she was his girlfriend and not Ellie,” another added.
“I need Jessie to know Ross is Ellie’s boyfriend so bad,” a fifth said.
