The Traitors’ Keira Has Revealed Which Co-Star She’s Blocked

The Traitors Australia 2026 cast might appear to be one happy family after filming the reality show in New Zealand last year, but it turns out not everyone has stayed in contact.

The Bachelor star Keira Maguire — who placed runner-up in Wednesday night’s dramatic final episode — has revealed to PEDESTRIAN.TV that her on-screen beef with Aussie Shore’s Manaaki Hoepo has continued well after filming ended.

“The only person I’m not talking to [from the cast] is Manaaki,” she said. “That was because after the show, I reached out to him and he was just not very nice. So I was like, you know what? I actually blocked him. We were friends on Instagram — not anymore.”

Keira and Manaaki’s beef after The Traitors

Keira and Manaaki clashed at the very start of the season when he accused her of lying about her team finding a shield in the mission — which they had. He also wrote down her name at the very first Round Table, and their beef continued up until episode three when Manaaki was murdered by the Traitors.

Keira explained that they managed to patch things up after the show, but things turned sour when Manaaki posted a video they filmed together at the show’s launch event in July.

“He said something like, ‘I feel like my followers are gonna come at you if they don’t think that we’re friends’, and I was like, ‘Oh yeah, let’s get a video together, whatever’. And then he ended up posting something that was negatively geared towards me,” she said.

“It wasn’t a good situation, so I was like, block! He needs to grow up.”

Krissy and Tully’s beef after The Traitors

Keira and Manaaki aren’t the only contestants with a tense relationship after the show, with Krissy Marsh telling P.TV that she was shocked to see Tully Smyth speak poorly about her on the show.

“For me, Tully really sort of was a mean girl in the kitchen, and a few of the girls were bitching behind my back. That really shocked me, because Tully and I became quite close, and they were quite nasty in that kitchen scene,” she shared, referring to the scene where Keira, Kirby and Tully criticised Krissy’s “childish” vote for Josh Packham in episode nine.

“When you see little clips back like that, you sort of go, ‘Oh wow, I didn’t expect that’. Have I lost sleep over it? No, but a lot of people have commented to me, ‘Oh my god, that was just full mean girl behaviour of those girls’.”

The Traitors group chat

As for the rest of the cast, Rachael Evren told P.TV that there’s a Traitors group chat that’s active “every single day” — although not everyone’s a part of it.

“We added Kween Kong in there, and she left because she was like, ‘You guys talk too much’,” she said.

“Shane [Gould] doesn’t have social media, and neither does Dicko, but they would be in there if they had social media. Everyone was invited to be in it.”

Kirby Bentley — who took home the entire $200,600 prize money —also described the cast as “incredible”, saying: “We’ve worked through our differences, and I think it’s the most tight-knit group of people I’ve actually been a part of.”

Well, if the OG Traitor can patch things up with the people she murdered and banished from the game, hopefully the Faithfuls can work out their issues too.
