The Traitors spoilers follow.

The Traitors star Elen Wyn has admitted she didn't suspect that fellow competitor Charlotte Berman was faking her Welsh accent.

Charlotte has been putting on the accent while on the show, explaining in the first episode that she had decided to deceive everyone as it's "one of the most trustworthy accents".

Elen, who is actually Welsh and was eliminated from the show last week, has now revealed that she didn't rumble her rival while on the show despite the pair talking to one another.

"I didn't suspect Charlotte wasn't Welsh at all," she told the BBC. "It was something I never even thought to question because she did quickly say that she now lives in London, so her accent has faded and that does happen.

"I think the fact that I'm from north Wales as well and the north Wales accent is completely different to the south Wales accent.

"I wouldn't have questioned it because I wasn't raised in south Wales and it's always been kind of mentioned that Abergavenny accent isn't that strong anyway."

Elen went on to suggest that while the Welsh accent is "more trustworthy", she didn't think it would put you at an advantage on the show.

"In the context of The Traitors I disagree because in the first series Amanda is Welsh, but she was a Traitor," she noted. "Season two, Andrew is Welsh, but he was also a Traitor.

"So, in the context of the show I don't really see how faking a Welsh accent would benefit her. However, she's doing better than me. I wish her luck."

The Traitors series 1-2 are streaming on BBC iPlayer. Two more series and a celebrity spin-off have already been confirmed.
