Caroline Stanbury ‘Will Have Words’ With Lisa Rinna After Sudden ‘Traitors’ Murder

Caroline Stanbury became the latest “Real Housewives” star to be eliminated from Peacock’s hit reality series “The Traitors,” meeting her demise at the hands of her Bravo peers, Lisa Rinna and Candiace Dillard Bassett.

In a new interview, Stanbury opens up about her experience filming season 4 of the thrilling competition show and teases a potential showdown between her and Rinna at the upcoming reunion.

For those who missed the action, Stanbury was one of the four all-star TV personalities on the shortlist for murder. Later in the episode, it was revealed that she was the Faithful the Traitors—Rinna, Bassett, and Rob Rausch—chose to eliminate.

The moment was chilling as Rinna and the rest of the Traitors explained to the “Real Housewives of Dubai” alum why she was being killed off. “You talk too much,” Bassett said, to which Rinna added, “Bye-bye, Caroline.”

In her confessional interview, a stunned Stanbury told producers that she was “floored” by her fate in the game. “I thought the Housewives would have each other’s backs,” she said.

Speaking with fellow murdered Faithful Rob Cesternino on his podcast, “Rob Has a Podcast,” Stanbury shared her thoughts about being killed by a fellow “Real Housewives” star.

Although Stanbury recognized Rinna as an “epic b-tch” from their time outside of the Scottish castle together, she believed Rinna was too obvious a choice for a Traitor due to her villainous past on “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.”

When asked whether she’d “have words” for Rinna when they reunite at the upcoming “Traitors” reunion, Stanbury made clear that she would.

“I will have words for Lisa at the reunion,” Stanbury said firmly. “She didn’t need to choose me; she didn’t need to do it. I do get it. But … is she a b-tch for doing it? 100%.”

Stanbury isn’t the only “Real Housewives” personality eliminated from “The Traitors” by the “Days of our Lives” alum.

In episode 2, “Real Housewives of Atlanta” veteran Porsha Williams was eliminated after Rinna cast one of the final votes for her to go. Had she voted differently, Williams likely would’ve been saved by a tie-breaking vote.

In her post-game interviews, Williams appeared equally vexed by Rinna’s vote for her, characterizing the reality star as a selfish player.

“When Lisa voted me out, I was like, ‘OK, so you’re who everybody says you are,'” Williams said. “Because, honestly, the vote that Lisa made for me—it didn’t have to happen at all. Again, as a fellow Housewife, she could’ve stuck to the sisterhood.”

Williams added, “Even if I [were] the Secret Traitor, she still didn’t have to vote me out because I was no threat to her. It was all for her benefit of self.”

The tension inside “The Traitors” castle isn’t limited to the “Real Housewives.”

According to The Blast, Michael Rapaport faced a wave of backlash from viewers after some said he made a “homophobic” comment toward “Bachelor” alum Colton Underwood.

During one of the show’s intense roundtable discussions, Underwood confronted Rapaport, laying out his reasons for believing Rapaport could be one of the show’s Traitors.

Rapaport, however, bristled at the accusations, telling Underwood that “nobody in this room would be better at holding a secret than you,” a statement many interpreted as a reference to Underwood’s coming-out story in April 2021.

Rapaport faced the wrath of his co-stars, who eventually banished him from the game.

In his confessional interview, Rapaport attempted to clarify his comments, saying, “I meant what I meant within the context of the game. It had nothing to do with his sexuality. I really sincerely apologize if I offended Colton or anybody in the house. That absolutely wasn’t the intention.”

In a recent interview, Underwood suggested he was willing to move forward with Rapaport following the “True Romance” actor’s apology, noting he wasn’t holding a “grudge.”

 “… but I do think it is important for me in my life at this point to start standing up for myself. I can only be a punching bag for so long. Even today, seeing some people’s [and] fans of the show’s comments towards me, I can only sit quiet for so long,” he said.
