Celebrity Traitors' Hannah Fry reveals the shocking impact her Traitor recruitment had on her stress levels
Practically off the scaleCelebrity Traitors star Hannah Fry has revealed just how stressed she was after being recruited as a Traitor.
Hannah, 42, was seduced into the Traitors fold in last night’s episode by Maya Jama and James Acaster.
Hours later, she had to arrive at breakfast and pretend nothing had happened.
This was made worse by the fact that the Faithful were expecting either Hannah or Jerry Hall to have been murdered.
But the Traitors chose to seduce instead, meaning Hannah had even more of a lie to tell.
The mathematician has now revealed exactly how stressed she was the day after becoming a Traitor – and it’s shocking!
Celebrity Traitors’ Hannah Fry reveals ‘stress’ of seduction
Hannah has taken to Instagram after fans at home watched the latest drama in Ardross Castle play out.
She shared a screen shot of her Smart Ring data. The reading was taken the day after Hannah was recruited in the turret.
Smart Rings are worn on the finger and track the health, fitness, and daily metrics of the wearer. And Hannah’s went bananas as she attempted to hide her new identity.
From midday onwards on that day, her heart rate and stress levels shot right up. It shows she was in high stress for two hours and 30 minutes.
Hannah told her followers alongside the data: “My smart ring during filming for that episode.”
One replied to Hannah, saying: “My nerves couldn’t cope.” Hannah told them: “APPARENTLY NEITHER COULD MINE.”
Another follower wrote: “Oh my word Hannah. I think we were all stressed for you!”
A third said to the star: “My stress rate went up in empathy for you. You’re amazing, I hope you make it further! Love that you’re turning this whole thing into a science experiment though either way.”
Even the official ASDA account has commented, quipping: “I bet you relished that one hour of restorative time tbh.”
Hannah Fry’s reaction to becoming a Traitor
Hannah has given no further clues about her Traitor recruitment. However, she did make it clear in the show that it filled her with nerves.
Hannah had initially assumed she’d been murdered when she discovered a scroll in the castle. But after unfolding it, her jaw-dropped when she realised she had been asked to join the Traitors.
Hannah told the cameras: “I don’t know what to do. It’s kind of what James Blunt says, they got rid of one of their biggest threats and now they’ve recruited one of their biggest threats. It was a question of kill me or recruit me.”
She then paused and added: “Wait, if I say yes to this, we go into breakfast and both me and Jerry are there. How the hell do I explain this?”
Hannah certainly found it tough.
Miranda Hart said as she walked in the room with Jerry: “Hannah, I’m very pleased to see you here.”
Hannah replied: “I’m very pleased to be here. I’m not sort of trusting it yet.”
Away from the cameras, she explained: “It’s so stressful! Honestly my heart is in my mouth. I didn’t know what to do with my face. I’m not cut out for this.”
‘Miss Marple’ Miranda did pick up on the stress.
She later admitted: “Hannah seemed anxious in a kind of something new, something has happened to her. I definitely clocked a nervousness in her, which is interesting. I saw it, I saw it.”
Un oh!
