Fans Bet Big That a ‘Survivor’ Champ Will Win Rival Competition Series

Season 4 of Peacock’s “The Traitors” is well underway, with a brand new batch of reality stars storming Scotland’s Ardross Castle to battle it out in the Emmy-winning cloak-and-dagger competition to win up to $250,000.

Unfortunately for CBS fans, the latest installment of the Alan Cumming-hosted murder-mystery series has been rough for viewers who primarily tune in to see gamers from shows like “Survivor” and “Big Brother” reprise their strategic gameplay in an all-new setting. 

For the first time in the series’ history, no so-called “gamers” were selected to join Cumming in the Traitors’ Turret, with the colorful Scottish actor instead selected “Real Housewives” alumni Lisa Rinna and Candiance Dillard Bassett and “Love Island” heartthrob Rob Rausch at this season’s eponymous Traitors instead. 

Things got even more bleak for fans of the stalwart CBS competition series after “Survivor” fan favorite Rob Cesternino and former “Big Brother” champions Ian Terry and Tiffany Mitchell were eliminated in the season’s first two weeks on air. 

That being said, as the crowd of reality stars continues to thin – be it through the Traitors’ midnight “murders” or banishments at the Round Table – fans are still betting big that one of the few remaining “gamers” could pull out a come-from-behind victory for the Faithfuls this season. 


Fans Bet ‘Survivor’ Natalie Anderson Will Win ‘Traitors’ Season 4

According to VegasInsider.com, a leading online platform for sports betting & odds, “Survivor: San Juan del Sur” champion Natalie Anderson is currently the favorite to take home this season’s grand prize for the Faithfuls with an implied 33 percent chance of winning over fellow Faithfuls like “Love Island” alum Maura Higgins (15 percent) and “Survivor 44” champ Yam Yam Arocho (3 percent). 

Anderson is certainly a force to be reckoned with, having placed as a runner-up on “Survivor: Winners at War,” falling just short of the 2020 season’s $2,000,000 prize before continuing her reality TV career on competitions like MTV’s “The Challenge” and “The Amazing Race.”

Fans’ belief that Natalie could go on to secure yet another victory follows after Cirie Fields, known for her numerous “Survivor” appearances and for winning the very first season of “The Traitors,” hyped her up during an August 2025 appearance at the first-ever Televerse event in Los Angeles. 

At the time, Cirie told “Traitors” fans that, out of the entire Season 4 cast, she was most excited to see Natalie storm the castle. 

“She gives off those trustworthy vibes. She doesn’t have to be in the forefront. She’s a great competitor,” Cirie gushed. “I think she has a great strategic mind.”

In order for Anderson to win the competition, however, she’ll have to root out the Traitors, all three of whom are still managing to fly under-the-radar, though some more successfully than others.


‘Love Island’s Rob Rausch is Anderson’s Biggest Competition

Fans seem confident that Lisa Rinna will be the first Traitor banished this season – apart from “secret” Traitor Donna Kelce who was ousted in Episode 3 – with VegasInsider reporting a 45 percent implied probability that the “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” mogul will be banished at the next Round Table. 

Rinna’s feud with former “Bachelor” Colton Underwood has drawn plenty of unwanted attention, though Underwood’s single-minded strategy to eliminate the Housewife has also landed him in some hot water, with Vegas Insider reporting a 35 percent probability that he’ll be the next Faithful banished from the castle. 

That leaves two Traitors standing between Anderson and the $250,000 prize pot: Candiace Dillard Bassett and Rob Rausch. 

With a 15 percent implied probability of winning, the “Real Housewives of Potomac” star currently stands a better chance of making it to the end as a Traitor than Rinna, but it is “Love Island”s southern snake-charmer Rob Rausch who’ll pose the biggest hurdle to Anderson becoming a two-time reality show champion.

At present, Rob leads the Season 4 cast with a 50 percent implied probability to become the next “Traitors” champion compared to Natalie’s 33 percent. 

Of course, things could change as the season progresses over the coming weeks. If the probabilities prove accurate and Lisa Rinna is banished at the next Round Table, the remaining Traitors will be forced to recruit another – maybe even Natalie herself – which would throw a major wrench into current odds betting. 

To keep up to date, be sure to catch new episodes of “The Traitors” Season 4 when they start streaming on Peacock every Thursday at 9:00pm ET.
