Season 4 of The Traitors has been full of surprises, revealing secrets and unexpected connections between contestants each week – and it seems there may be even more to uncover.
The first episode revealed that Roxy and Judy had been secretly keeping their mother-daughter relationship hidden from the other contestants. Now, it looks like Ellie and Ross might be doing the same thing.
Viewers have been wondering if Ellie and Ross knew each other before, pointing to hints of a hidden past and a seemingly uncomfortable initial meeting.
Scroll on as we break down the potential link between the two Traitors contestants.
Do Ellie and Ross from The Traitors know each other?
Although Ross and Ellie haven’t seemed friendly on the show, fans have been looking through their old social media posts and believe they might have known each other previously.
Rumors started circulating when fans noticed, through Instagram posts, that the two individuals had both been at the same hotel in Tenerife.
Ross posted photos from his stay at the Tivoli La Caleta Tenerife Resort, and fans later noticed that the background in photos Ellie shared matched the same location.

Although it seemed like Ross and Ellie might have gotten together after filming wrapped, a photo from 2024 – which has since been removed – indicates they weren’t together.
Ross’s Instagram account for his personal training business posted a picture of a group outing, featuring him and Ellie.
The photo shows Ross with his arm around Ellie, suggesting they might have known each other before appearing on the show.
Ever since Ross revealed he was keeping something hidden, people have been buzzing with guesses about how he and the other person know each other.
As of now, the two haven’t admitted to knowing each other on the show, but it seems likely they will soon.
