The Traitors fans have watched as former Bachelor star Colton Underwood has attempted to manipulate his way through the game. Now, he has terrified viewers with a direct threat toward his co-star, Lisa Rinna. So, what was so scary that fans are shaking when he comes onto the screen? Keep reading for more details on what they have to say.
Colton Underwood Has Fans Terrified
Since he started on The Traitors, Colton Underwood has been working overtime to get people out of the game. Unfortunately, he is doing too much and playing the game wrong. The former Bachelor lead has not made the best impression, and now, he has left fans terrified. He has started to finally get it right when it comes to who may be a traitor and not a faithful. The three that remain are Rob Rausch (Love Island USA), Candiace Dillard Bassett (RHOP), and Lisa Rinna (RHOBH). Donna Kelce was the fourth, but she was banished early on.
Now, Colton is beyond convinced that Lisa is a traitor and wants to get rid of her. However, he was willing to work with the actress and former reality star to keep her around. In his confessional, while the rest of the house is figuring out their next move, Colton has this to say:
“Instead of trying to banish a Traitor. I’m going to try to hold one hostage.”
Soon enough, Colton gets with Lisa in an attempt to get her to work with him. He wants her to protect him and vice versa, but is that possible? Not likely, and she proceeds to go on her “I’m a faithful” tirade, which viewers know is a lie. Yet, it is Colton Underwood’s verbiage about holding Lisa “hostage” that has triggered fans, and with good reason. He allegedly stalked his ex, Cassie Randolph, who won his season of The Bachelor, and she had to get a protective order.
That led Demi Burnett, who was also on the same season as Cassie, to speak out about Colton being allowed on The Traitors. Now, he wants to hold Lisa Rinna “hostage,” and even if it is metaphorical, it is still terrifying.

This Is Too Much
It is not just that Colton Underwood stalked his ex and she had to get a protective order, but fans wanted one more topic addressed. In an episode of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, Lisa Rinna’s late mother, Lois, talked about how she was nearly murdered by a serial killer. It was a miracle that she was still alive, so a “hostage” comment could be very triggering for Lisa. A viewer pointed this out after watching Colton’s comments on The Traitors:
- Also came to mind that Lisa’s mom literally survived a serial killer people should be talking more about this
Others shared these sentiments:
- He was so close to her and sounded so menacing. I just know she must’ve felt uncomfortable, but didn’t want to seem suspicious. Not good for her. He’s got her in his web and I don’t think she’s getting out (due to her secret).
- This made my heart sink and so worried for Lisa
It is unclear if the Indianapolis, Indiana, native realizes what he has said and will be held accountable. However, he will be held to the fire when all is said and done, at least by fans.
