THE Traitors’ most devious contestant Rachel Duffy has been tipped for a huge showbiz career after insiders predict she’ll become a millionaire – making her the richest traitor yet.
42-year-old Rachel has become somewhat of a household name over the past three weeks as she shocked fans with her incredible gameplay, lying and deceiving her fellow co-stars.
The finale of series four, which aired last night, had fans on the edge of their seats when traitors Rachel and Stephen Libby were crowned victorious.
For a while fans were left on tenterhooks convinced Stephen, 32, was going to throw Rachel under the bus and claim the full prize fund but he later admitted he couldn’t go back on his promise – to never vote for her at the roundtable.
Meanwhile, showbiz agents have let slip that Rachel, branded one the show’s best-ever players, could be destined for stardom.
Industry insiders have told the Daily Mail the BBC stars income is set to skyrocket with multiple celebrity agents looking to scoop her up.

One source told them: “Rachel is a superstar, she’s brilliant and she has been the standout contestant from start to finish.
“She has won millions and millions of fans and showbiz agents know they can make her a fortune. Already they are thinking about what other reality television programmes they can get her on.”
They confessed: “She has all of the ingredients for stardom.
“In a few days she will be inundated with people wanting to represent her. She has been a household name for the last three weeks and she will continue to be so.”
It seems we might be seeing more of Irish-born Rachel soon as showbiz agents fight to get her back on our screens.
Jonathan Shalit, founder of InterTalent told the Daily Mail: “Rachel is the perfect commercial package; intelligent, beautiful, calm, modern, witty, and sharp, but also warm and relatable. Brands don’t just want popularity. They want noise.
“Right now, people are talking about Rachel. TV shows, podcasts, streamers, advertisers, and brands will all be lining up for her. Her age is also a huge advantage commercially because it aligns with real household spending power. She is absolutely on track to earn well into seven figures over the next year.”
During the series, the Head of Communications managed to bag an impressive 123,000 followers on Instagram and approximately 62,200 on TikTok.
The TV personality made it no secret she wanted to win the show and that she did making history with former cyber security consultant Stephen.
Rachel even admitted on the show that she got training from an ex FBI agent on the art of lying.
She said she practised keeping a straight face while lying to her lawyer husband, Seamus, until she became so good even he couldn’t tell if she was telling fibs.
Stephen and Rachel became the first pair of traitors to win the series as they took part in the most thrilling endgame yet.
At the final roundtable it came down to Stephen to have the casting vote; thinking with his head instead of his heart he revealed his vote was for Jade – staying loyal to his Traitor partnership with Rachel.
When the cunning pair were faced with the endgame they continued their alliance and both voted out Faraaz, while Jack maintained his vote for Rachel and Faraaz took a shot a Stephen.
After Faraaz was ousted, they all opted to banish again. The final vote saw the two traitors boot Jack out of Ardross Castle.
Rachel won’t be the first Traitors contestant to lock down big brand deals and appear back on our screens: series three’s Mollie Pearce debuted on ITV‘s Dancing On Ice and Harry Clarke has been spotted on The Weakest Link, Celebrity Antiques Road Show and Sky Sports.
