Alan Carr Flees to US Ahead of Celebrity Traitors Final

Alan Carr has revealed he escaped to the US ahead of the final of the BBC reality show Celebrity Traitors, where he remains one of the last two Traitors alongside singer Cat Burns.

The 49-year-old comedian has become a social media sensation due to his sharp wit and infectious laughter on the show. Despite the popularity, Carr joked he has become “the most hated man in the UK” and traveled to Orlando, Florida, with his nephew and niece to avoid public backlash.

Escape from Public Scrutiny

“I'm the most hated man in the UK, I've had to come here to Orlando to get away from it. Everyone hates me!”

Speaking with Heart radio hosts Olly Murs and Mark Wright, Carr said, “I just needed to get away because it's stressful murdering every day. My Christmas card list is getting smaller and smaller.”

Celebrity Traitors and Theme Park Fun

Murs suggested Carr dress as a Traitor during his visit to Universal Studios theme park, mentioning the Traitors-style cape available at Harry Potter World. Carr responded that he came for a break but joked about wearing the cape while riding Universal's Volcano Bay water slide, carrying a Traitors lantern.

Personal Relationships Affected

Recently, Carr disclosed that his close friend Paloma Faith is unhappy with his actions on Traitors, reflecting some of the personal toll the show has taken.
