The Traitors star Faraaz reveals he was left in tears after billionaire’s touching gift

Although Faraaz Noor didn’t win the prize money on The Traitors to fund a family trip to Hajj, he might be able to make that pilgrimage happen sooner than expected.

Faraaz quickly became a popular contestant this season, even though his contributions to the discussions weren’t always right. He reached the final episode, but was ultimately eliminated by the Traitors, Stephen and Rachel.

Before the finale, Faraaz shared that if he won, he’d love to use the prize money to take his family on a religious pilgrimage. He specifically mentioned wanting to go to Umrah or Hajj with them, saying it would be a wonderful experience. While he might put some money towards a new car if there was anything left over, his priority would be treating his family.

After the popularity of the show The Traitors, Umar Kamani, who runs PrettyLittleThing, announced on X (previously Twitter) that he’d like to sponsor a trip to Hajj for Faraaz, a contestant from the show, and his family.

Faraaz was deeply moved by the news, even saying he cried after seeing the post, as he shared at the TopMob Covers Party 2026.

I returned home and was speaking with my mother. I told her I was overwhelmed with gratitude to Umar, and I was genuinely moved to tears. It was unbelievable.

It’s unclear if Faraaz and Umar are still communicating, but the popular star from Traitors still wants to go on the pilgrimage.

He told BBC News that the amount of love and support he’s received has been incredible. He hopes to one day be able to take his supporters on a pilgrimage to Mecca, either for Hajj or Umrah, and is really looking forward to that possibility.
