Sources say Hugh Grant is being considered for the next season of The Celebrity Traitors. Producers are starting to cast contestants for the show’s second season, which will once again be filmed at Ardross Castle later this year.
Having successfully cast Celia Imrie and Stephen Fry in the first season, producers are reportedly trying to persuade Simon Grant to appear in the next one.
A source at the TV show said signing Hugh would be a major win, and they believe he’d be a fantastic personality to have on the cast. Show executives are really focused on avoiding the usual reality TV faces who appear on every show.
A BBC representative stated they won’t be responding to rumors, and information about the second series of The Celebrity Traitors will be shared when it’s ready.
TopMob has approached the BBC for additional comment.

There’s been a lot of talk about who might join the second season, and Hugh Grant is just one of the well-known actors reportedly being considered, along with other stars from across the entertainment industry.
Reports suggest that Cheryl Tweedy, 42, is considering a return to public life, though she’s reportedly taking things slowly.
According to a source, show executives believe a certain celebrity would be a major attraction, particularly because of her direct and honest communication style. Other stars rumored to be joining the filming location in Scotland include Danny Dyer, Alison Hammond, Daisy May Cooper, Ruth Jones, Tom Hiddleston, and Steve Pemberton, who is reportedly fascinated by how the show works. Pemberton’s potential involvement is being compared to Jonathan Ross from last season, who was a dedicated fan and quickly became a prominent contestant.
Steve is a highly skilled actor, known for his ability to convincingly play a wide range of characters. Because of this talent, he’d be a strong and challenging competitor, making him a popular choice with the show’s producers.
The BBC hasn’t officially announced the cast for season two yet, but fans are eagerly awaiting the news!
