The Traitors winner Stephen Libby has reportedly quit his day job to pursue a career in showbiz following his dramatic victory on the hit BBC series.
The star, 32, previously worked in cyber security before joining The Traitors, and was crowned the winner of the fourth series alongside fellow Traitor Rachel Duffy.
Stephen became one of the longest undetected Traitors in the show’s history, despite facing several major hiccups along the way.
Although the nail-biting finale aired on Friday evening, the series was filmed last year, and since then, Stephen is said to have quit his job, according to a source.
Since finding fame on the show, Stephen is reportedly enjoying life in the public eye so much that he is now actively seeking a career in television.
According to The Sun, an industry insider believes Stephen has ‘all the ingredients’ to make it in showbusiness.

Highlighting his key characteristics that would work well, they said: ‘His fashion has been a real talking point and he’s clearly a good looking lad, who is articulate and charming.
‘If he lands the right agent he could do very well out of The Traitors indeed.
‘He’s the cast member you can see being on talent bookers’ list – you can see him on MasterChef, quiz shows, and beyond.’
Daily Mail have reached out to Stephen’s representatives for comment.
Meanwhile, his fellow Traitor Rachel could also be set for a lucrative career in showbiz, with agents lining up to sign her following their historic win.
In one of the most tense finales the show has ever seen, Stephen and Rachel became the first duo of Traitors to triumph, despite fans being convinced Rachel would betray her friend to secure the entire prize pot.
The pair remained loyal from the very beginning, with Stephen making a selfless decision at the final hurdle despite knowing Jack Butler would vote Rachel out.
Instead, both stuck to a pact they made at the family tree not to turn on each other.

The duo split the winnings, taking home £47,875 each, and were left overcome with emotion as they reflected on their journey.
Rachel said: ‘It is the best feeling in the world. I really thought it was such a big achievement to be the first female Traitor to make it to the final, then win.’
Speaking after his victory, Stephen said: ‘I can’t believe I’ve just won The Traitors. I’m just a wee boy from the Isle of Lewis. This kind of stuff doesn’t really happen to me.’
To celebrate his win, Stephen threw a party for his friends and loved ones during the launch episode, with eagle-eyed fans spotting a famous face among the guests.
Comedian Lou Sanders was seen attending the party. She previously won the eighth series of Taskmaster in 2019 and appeared in the Prime Video series Last One Laughing.
Speculation quickly followed, with some fans suggesting Lou could help Stephen launch a television career.

On social media, rumours also circulated that Lou was the landlord of Stephen and his actor boyfriend, Daniel Quirke.
A fan wrote: ‘Stephen’s landlord is Lou Sanders so he’s certainly got some connections that could help him launch a career from the show.’
Clearing up the misconception, Daniel responded: ‘Can confirm she is not our landlord, just a friend of ours.’
Daniel is also a rising star and has appeared on shows, including Brave New World, The Sandman and Geek Girl.’
Stephen lives in London with his boyfriend and has often caught viewers’ attention with his bold fashion choices.
