Banished in real life? Traitors winner Rachel Duffy snubs co-star during girls' trip to Northern Ireland
Fans spotted she was missingTraitors winner Rachel Duffy has added fuel to feud rumours after appearing to banish one of her co-stars from a girls’ trip.
Rachel, who triumphed on The Traitors with Stephen Libby last week, invited some of her female c0-stars to spend the weekend with her at home in Northern Ireland.
Pictures of the girl gang enjoying countryside walks and a trip to the seaside funfair have now emerged online.
But one face is noticeably absent.
Fiona Hughes is nowhere to be seen following her massive fallout with Rachel on screen in series 4.
The ladies came to blows when Secret Traitor Fiona tried to throw Rachel under the bus by telling everyone she thought she was a Traitor.
The Traitors: Rachel Duffy ‘snubs’ Fiona Hughes from girls’ trip
Judging by their clothing, Rachel’s visit from her Traitors co-stars appeared to take place last summer after they had filmed the series.
She was joined by Judy Wilson, her daughter Roxy Wilson and Amanda Collier in Belfast, which is less than an hour from where she lives in Newry.
Judy has now shared both photos and videos from the trip on Instagram, having kept them under wraps for six months. She captioned one of her posts: “Thank you for the best time girlies! Love ya!”
But after having a trawl, one eagle-eyed Traitors fan wrote: “When’s Fiona visiting?”
Another joked: “Heard Fiona had to pull out at the last minute!”
Others have, however, commented on the friendship between Rachel, Judy, Roxy and Amanda.
One follower said: “Awwww lovely that you are great friends…Traitors is the link that holds you all together. Someone else gushed: “Looks like you all have friends for life.”
And echoing this, another Traitors fan said: “Awwww its fabulous that you have all stayed in touch….series 4 has been the best.”

Have Rachel and Fiona really fallen out?
Rachel came to blows with Fiona shortly after she was unveiled as the red cape-wearing Secret Traitors.
In explosive scenes, Fiona decided to turn on Rachel. She told all the Faithful that she was a Traitor in a bid to get her out of the game. Fans were gripped by the unfolding drama – and Rachel was furious.
But unfortunately for Fiona, her plan completely backfired. Her outburst was deemed so over the top by the majority of the Faithful that she ended up being banished.
Last week, following her win with Stephen, Rachel was grilled about her fallout with Fiona on spin-off show, Uncloaked.
Ed Gamble asked: “You came to blows with Fiona a little bit. When she accused you in the kitchen, what was going through your mind?”
Rachel replied: “I just thought, this is a great craic. Fiona reminded me that it was a game. But it took me about three seconds when she dropped the hood, I just thought, ‘No, no. She’s going to throw me under the bus’.”
But Rachel went on to quashed rumours of a continued feud, describing Fiona as “phenomenal”.
The pair are also friends on Instagram… for now.
