If you ever jumped on the Among Us craze a few years back, you need to tune in to Channel 10’s latest reality series, The Traitors.
The competition sees a group of 24 players, known as Faithfuls, live together in a hotel, where they will take part in challenges in the hopes to walk away with $250,000.
They’ll also need to figure out who amongst them are actually Traitors in hiding.
There’s a lot on the line because if a Traitor manages to make it to the end undetected, they take home the entire amount. However, if a Faithful is able to expose a Traitor and get rid of them before the final vote, they have the option to take all the prize money or share it with their remaining Faithfuls.
24-year-old law and international politics student Marielle has been selected as one of this season’s Traitors and, if anyone’s ready for a challenge, it’s her.
When Marielle isn’t busy with her double degree, she’s working her job as a bartender, volunteering, advocating for human rights, or competing in triathlons. It’s safe to say she’s used to switching gears for different situations, so we’re confident she’ll be able to navigate the murky waters of The Traitors with ease.
Growing up in a family who loved to travel, she has seen parts of the world other people can only dream of and it’s given Marielle a greater understanding of equality and drives her passion to achieve that.
“I’ve always been motivated to see how much I can do with my life and I don’t believe there’s anything I can’t do,” Marielle said in a press statement. “If I leave this game and I’ve given it everything I have and I have truly performed to my highest level, I’ll be satisfied.”
In her everyday life, Marielle aligns with the idea of being a Faithful, due to her “desire to follow the rules and do the right thing”, but in The Traitors? All bets are off, my friends.
“We’re playing a game,” Marielle said. “There’s nothing off the cards for me, I’ll do whatever it takes when I get in the game.”
Will Marielle’s legal skills get her over the finish line and score her the $250,000 prize pool? There’s only one way to find out.
The Traitors airs at 7.30pm, Sunday – Tuesdays, only on 10 and 10 Play on Demand.
