The Celebrity Traitors Series 2 portraits are here, and the first Traitor of the season might be whoever approved the Photoshop.
The BBC uncloaked this year’s official cast photos on Sept. 22, and comedian Rob Beckett wasn’t pleased with the final edits.
“I think there is a traitor in the photoshop department.... what the f*** has happened to my face?” Beckett captioned his Celebrity Traitors headshot on Instagram.

Fellow Celebrity Traitors star and Love Island host Maya Jama agreed with Beckett’s complaints, commenting under the post: “They did us all dirty tbh.”
Irish comedian Joanne McNally already clocked the show’s unflattering promo last week, joking that she’s barely seen in the trailer and was “moments away from AI-ing” herself into the footage.
“Every single time there’s a trailer released I’m like, ‘Oh it’s so exciting.’ And I press play. It’s the biggest thing I’ve ever done in my career, it’s so exciting. And every time I’m not in any of them,”McNally joked online.

Fans Poked Fun At The Portraits
Viewers also didn’t shy away from giving their verdict on the newly-released cast photos. “Ok but why does Rob Beckett look like a wax model?” one fan wrote on Instagram, while another joked, “It’s giving Wallace and Gromit.”
