Wes Bergmann Joins ‘The Traitors’ Season 3 in Scottish Highlands

Reality TV veteran Wes Bergmann, known for his dominant presence on MTV’s ‘The Challenge,’ has joined the cast of Peacock‘s ‘The Traitors‘ Season 3, which premiered on January 9, 2025. The season, set in a Scottish castle, features Bergmann alongside other reality stars, including ‘Survivor‘ legend Rob Mariano and ‘Big Brother‘ champ Derrick Levasseur, in a high-stakes game of deception and strategy.

Bergmann, who has competed in 20 seasons of ‘The Challenge,’ brings a reputation for ruthless gameplay to ‘The Traitors.’ His transition to the new series marks a departure from his long-standing loyalty to MTV’s flagship competition. In a recent interview, Bergmann described his approach to the game, stating, ‘I’m prepared to do whatever it takes to win.’

The third season of ‘The Traitors’ introduces a record-breaking four traitors, including ‘Big Brother’ star Danielle Reyes and ‘RuPaul’s Drag Race’ winner Bob the Drag Queen. Host Alan Cumming surprised contestants with the addition of Bergmann, Mariano, and Levasseur, who were granted immunity from early eliminations.

Season 3 has already seen dramatic twists, including the early ‘murder’ of ‘Real Housewives of New Jersey‘ star Dolores Catania and the banishment of ‘Bachelor‘ contestant Wells Adams. The season finale will feature a new rule: banished players will not reveal their allegiance, adding an extra layer of suspense.

All episodes of ‘The Traitors’ Season 3 are available to stream on Peacock, with new episodes airing Thursdays at 9/8c. The season finale and reunion are set to premiere on March 6, 2025.
