Maya Jama has joined Celebrity Traitors, which starts filming in Scotland very soon. She will be joined in the castle by a star-studded line-up
Maya Jama flashed a huge smile as she arrived in Scotland today for Celebrity Traitors. The Love Island host was said to be top of producers’ lists for the new series, which will also star soap stars, Ross Kemp and Julie Hesmondhalgh.
Seen arriving at Inverness Airport, Maya, 31, cut a casual figure, sporting a white T-Shirt, sunglasses and white jeans. The former Radio One host looks set to be a huge hit on the celebrity version of The Traitors with her ability to connect with a younger crowd thanks to her Love Island hosting duties. She was also said to be more than willing to take a huge pay cut to appear on the smash-hit show, which is a lot less than her reputed fee of £800,000 for hosting Love Island. Maya is said to have accepted a flat fee of £40,000 for Celebrity Traitors after getting hooked on the series while watching it with her boyfriend Rúben Dias.
A source told The Sun: “She loved watching the first Celebrity Traitors series at home with boyfriend Rúben and is so excited to get filming She can’t wait to do some fibbing and be as deceitful as possible to try to win it’.
“It has worked out perfectly that she can go straight from the Scottish castle to the villa in Majorca to film the summer Love Island series in June.”
Also on Maya’s flight today was Irish podcast star, Joanne McNally. She was also seen at Inverness Airport, rocking sunglasses and a warm coat as she hugged her co-star ahead of the new series.
The line-up for Celebrity Traitors season two was revealed on Saturday, with Ross Kemp joining his new co-stars for filming in Scotland today.
It was previously confirmed that the EastEnders icon, 61, was among the star-studded line-up for season two of the hit BBC game show, alongside Richard E. Grant, Michael Sheen, Leigh-Anne Pinnock and Rob Beckett.
Flashing a thumbs-up for the cameras as he arrived in Scotland, Ross looked ready to get strapped in for some skullduggery in the infamous castle.
James Acaster and Joe Lycett have also been named in the line-up, alongside social media content creator King Kenny, and Romesh Ranganathan.
Industry actress Myha’la and Professor Hannah Fry complete the cast along with Sharon Rooney, James Blunt, Sebastian Croft and Sharon Rooney.
