Maya Jama donates what she would have won on The Celebrity Traitors to charity
Maya Jama was banished just before the endgame during The Celebrity Traitors final on October 30.
Maya Jama has donated the amount she would have won on The Celebrity Traitors to her chosen charity.
After playing a Traitor throughout the series, the Love Island host was banished at the final Round Table after fellow Traitor King Kenny, 29, joined Faithfuls comedian Romesh Ranganathan, 48, actor Sebastian Croft, 24, and singer James Blunt, 52, in eliminating her.
It left the YouTube star as the last Traitor standing, but his hopes of winning were dashed when Heartstopper alum Sebastian persuaded Romesh to banish him at the last minute during the endgame.
Sebastian and Romesh went on to win the £83,000 prize, which they will split between their respective charities.
And taking to X on Saturday (31.10.26), Maya, 32, shared she has donated what she would have won if she remained until the very end to Action for Children.
Maya said: "Just donated what I would have won for my chosen charity @actnforchildren. Amazing cause (sic)."
Action for Children protects and supports vulnerable children, young people and families through practical and emotional help.
Fans rushed to the post's comments section to praise Maya for her generous donation, with one calling her "the star of the show".
A second supporter penned: "Queen.....donating the money that should've been yours after carrying the whole season (sic)."
And a third follower typed: "Oh my goodness Maya! As if we couldn’t love you more."
Romesh and Sebastian won the second series of The Celebrity Traitors, splitting the £83,000 prize pot between their chosen charities.
Sebastian revealed his share of the winnings will go to Choose Love, an organisation that he previously volunteered for.
He said: "The money will be going to refugees and displaced people, but predominantly queer refugees and displaced people, and they are just the best organisation."
Comedian Romesh will donate his share to the Refugee Council.
He said: "I am playing for the Refugee Council, helping displaced people who need help, and it's a cause that's very close to my heart, so I'm very, very grateful for this."
Reflecting on his victory alongside Romesh, Sebastian said: "That was just incredible."
Getting emotional, he added: "This might actually be the best day of my life."
Meanwhile, Romesh admitted he hoped his family would be proud of his achievement, particularly his 11-year-old son, Charlie, who encouraged him to sign up for The Celebrity Traitors, hosted by 54-year-old Claudia Winkleman.
He said: "I just really hope my mum's proud, and also my youngest son, Charlie, who wanted me to come on the show. Dad won."
The funnyman then joked: "Please show me some respect."
