A potential cast list for The Traitors Season 3 has been shared on social media and Below Deck alum Rachel Hargrove is among the group.

Ever since the third season of The Traitors US was announced during the Season 2 reunion, fans haven’t stopped speculating about who could be in the cast next.

Now, the majority of the contestants in The Traitors have always been reality TV stars, whether that means they formerly competed on Survivor, Big Brother, Real Housewives, and Below Deck.

Former Chief Stewardess Kate Chastain was a cast member on both Season 1 and Season 2. And while fans don’t believe that they are going to bring back Kate for a third go at winning/sharing the prize money, it is rumored that another BD star will be taking on the challenge.

On April 6, a cast list for The Traitors Season 3 was posted on Reddit (and has since been deleted from the platform), and while the post claimed that this info is confirmed, this hasn’t been announced by Bravo yet.

According to the rumored lineup, Chef Rachel Hargrove could be a part of the cast for Season 3 of The Traitors. You might recognize her for serving up food from Season 8 through Season 10 of Below Deck 

While most are all for the idea of Rachel coming back to TV, most believe at this point that the announcement is too good to be true.

One fan wrote regarding Rachel potentially being in The Traitors, “I would give anything to see chef Rachel and Dorinda on Traitors. Of course I’d watch Rachel on anything, that woman is hilarious!”

Another fan chimed in and wrote, “Screams fake to me. Highly doubt they wouldn’t bring back Peppermint.”

“And where was this “confirmed”, exactly,” another fan asked. As of now, the Redditor who made the post didn’t answer their question.

The official cast for Season 3 was announced by Peacock on June 5 and Rachel was not featured in the lineup. In fact, no Below Deck stars are a part of the group. However, Kate was a surprise cast member in the second season so you truly never know if the chef will be in the third season of the show. When it comes to The Traitors, always expect the unexpected.
