Who is Harriet? Meet The Traitors season 4 contestant and crime writer

A fresh group of twenty-two contestants has arrived at Ardross Castle in the Scottish Highlands to compete in the new season of The Traitors, hosted by Claudia Winkleman.

I’m really rooting for Harriet on this show! She seems like she’s got a good head on her shoulders and I hope she can figure out who the Traitors are and win that amazing £120,000 prize.

The latest season of the popular BBC show features a new element: a Secret Traitor. This hidden player will wear a striking red cloak and secretly manipulate events.

While we eagerly await the latest developments, let’s take a closer look at Harriet, a contestant from season 4 of The Traitors.

Who is Harriet from The Traitors?

Age: 52

Job: Crime writer and former barrister

Location: London

Harriet, a 52-year-old from London, writes crime novels and used to be a lawyer. She’s decided to keep her profession a secret from the other people she’s with. When she’s not writing, Harriet enjoys family life, baking, cooking, and caring for her two dogs.

She’s incredibly competitive – so much so that her family has stopped playing Monopoly because she’s worried it might cause arguments serious enough to threaten her marriage!

Why did Harriet apply for The Traitors?

Harriet really enjoys the show and thinks her background as a criminal barrister and crime writer gives her a unique ability to identify the Traitors.

The Traitors is all about figuring out who’s being genuine and who isn’t. I think I could be good at spotting the traitors because I’m naturally observant and, as a former criminal barrister, I’m trained to notice when people aren’t telling the truth.

I’m confident in my ability to solve puzzles, but I’m also worried that things could easily fall apart and I’ll end up feeling overwhelmed.
