Washington, DC [US], June 14: Donna Kelce, mother of NFL stars Jason and Travis Kelce, has officially joined the cast of The Traitors Season 4, Peacock announced. She will compete alongside a star-studded lineup for a chance to win up to $250,000, according to People.
On June 12, the X (formerly Twitter) account for the Kelce brothers’ podcast New Heights posted a clip from a September 2024 episode where the brothers humorously discussed the show. The caption teasingly read they were sharing it “for no reason whatsoever,” accompanied by a smirk emoji — hinting at their mom’s upcoming reality TV debut.
Donna is one of 23 contestants in the upcoming season. Among them are veteran reality competitors like Natalie Anderson (The Amazing Race), Yamil “Yam Yam” Arocho (Survivor), Rob Cesternino (Survivor), Tiffany Mitchell (Big Brother), and Ian Terry (Big Brother).
Several Real Housewives stars will also appear this season, including Candiace Dillard Bassett (Real Housewives of Potomac), Dorinda Medley (New York City), Lisa Rinna (Beverly Hills), Porsha Williams (Atlanta), and Caroline Stanbury (Dubai).
Additional contestants include competition show alumni such as Mark Ballas (Dancing with the Stars), Monet X Change (RuPaul’s Drag Race), and Kristen Kish (Top Chef).
The cast is rounded out by Colton Underwood (The Bachelor), comedian Ron Funches, Stephen Colletti (Laguna Beach, One Tree Hill), Maura Higgins (Love Island), Tara Lipinski and Johnny Weir (Olympic figure skaters), singer Eric Nam, actor Michael Rapaport, and Rob Rausch (Love Island USA).
Donna’s casting comes shortly after the conclusion of Season 3, which ended in March. That season crowned faithfuls Dolores Catania, Dylan Efron, Gabby Windey, and Ivar Mountbatten as co-winners.
The first three seasons of The Traitors are currently available for streaming on Peacock.
