Maya Jama Donates Intended Prize Money to Action for Children After Celebrity Traitors Exit

Presenter Maya Jama, eliminated in the final round of the BBC series Celebrity Traitors, said on October 31 that she has donated the prize money she would have earned to her chosen charity, Action for Children. > "Just donated what I would have won for my chosen charity," she posted on social media, adding that it was an "amazing cause." The show’s winners, actor Sebastian Croft and comedian Romesh Ranganathan, each received £41,500 for their respective charities, Choose Love and the Refugee Council. Viewers responded positively to Jama’s gesture, describing it as a generous act and noting that she remained a standout participant despite her elimination. The finale attracted an average overnight audience of 11.2 million, slightly lower than the previous year’s peak, but still marked the series’ highest average viewership to date.
