The couple agreed to keep their real relationship to themselves, before Tom revealed to the entire they were actually in it together at one of their daily breakfast after Alex was accused of being a Traitor.
Both of them Faithfuls, Tom was ultimately eliminated seventh and Alex eleventh after the Traitors (Wilf and Amanda) failed to recruit her to their side. But since Tom’s departure, Alex had been sharing videos on her TikTok account where followers asked whether she and Tom were still an item, keeping her followers guessing.
However, just a day after the BBC reality show finished, Tom and Alex shared a joint post on Instagram to “clear up” the rumours circulating about them. Uploading a collage of pictures of them together in a nightclub; a black and white photo of them in white shirts; a mirror selfie; a holiday snap; and posing in funky sunglasses, they wrote: “Alex isn’t a Traitor… she’s my GIRLFRIEND! We think this clears up the rumours going round atm #TheTraitors.”
Tom also posted the collage on his TikTok page with Heat Waves by Glass Animals playing in the video, alongside the caption: “Just to clear up the rumours @alexogray #thetraitors She’s always been my 100%.”
They Instagram post racked up over 4,588 likes and 75 comments, including one from their former co-star Matt Harris, who admitted to having a crush on Alex during their time on the show. He joked: “Wait, what?”
Some of their other co-stars also joined in on the fun, with Dr Amos Ogunkoya commenting: “How could you @tomelderfield thought we had something special.”
Final Traitor standing Wilfred Webster shared the love, writing, “Love you guys!!” while Theo Mayne joked, “I'm confused, I thought Tom liked me”.
