Bravo stars had a score to settle during The Traitors reunion after most of them were eliminated very early into season 3.
During an exclusive interview with Us Weekly while promoting her, Teresa Giudice and Shannon Beador’s upcoming Fans at Sea Wives on the Waves cruise, Dolores Catania hinted that her fellow Bravolebrities had issues they wanted to address.
“The Bravo people are not gamers. I don’t know why [the other contestants] felt the need to kill all my friends off,” she noted. “They should have left them there because they had no idea what they were doing. And Chanel [Ayan] is mad. She’s so mad. Dorinda [Medley] is so mad.”
Dolores, 54, noted that her fellow reality stars went “guns blazing” into the special, adding, “I feel sorry for those Traitors when they match up with the Housewives at the reunion. They’re in trouble.”
Inspired by Dutch series De Verraders, The Traitors brings together celebrities, especially reality TV stars from different franchises — including Survivor, Big Brother, Real Housewives and more — as they compete in a mafia-style game for up to $250,000. Despite having a mix of familiar faces from various shows, Bravo personalities have usually not lasted long because the other Faithfuls would banish them out of fear of a secret alliance.
Dolores, however, pointed out that she “didn’t really know the game that well” when she joined season 3. She also proved the claims of a Bravo alliance wrong after voting to banish Vanderpump Rules‘ Tom Sandoval multiple times — even though it was obvious he wasn’t a Traitor.
“When I watched it, I was like, ‘Why did I do that?’ Dolores told Us about how she regretted wasting her vote on Sandoval, 42. “But listen, it is what it is. You can’t take things back in this world — as we all know. Once it’s out there, it’s out there.”
Dolores also pointed out that Sandoval had it out for her first.
“It’s the stupid thing to do because everyone knows I’m the utmost faithful. There’s not a lot of time to get rid of the Traitors that are there. So Tom is coming for me, and then I emotionally vote,” she explained. “So I go after him because emotions don’t travel in rational channels — as we all know. I go for him instead.”
“But hey, maybe he could have been a traitor. I didn’t know at the time. We know Tom can be a traitor,” she said, referring to his cheating scandal with Rachel “Raquel” Leviss.

Tom Sandoval may not be a Traitor but his fellow contestants still had their suspicions about his behavior on season 3 of The Traitors. The season started with Sandoval asking to be a Faithful — to the surprise of Us and fellow viewers. Sandoval was still hit with digs about his controversial past when host […]
After various twists and turns, Dolores ultimately made it to the Thursday, March 6, finale. It remains to be seen whether she actually won the entire show, but in addition to appearing on The Traitors finale and reunion, Dolores will be sailing off with her fellow Housewives and fans for the Wives on the Waves cruise from September 19 to 24. The five-day trip, which will take place on the new Norwegian Cruise Line Escape ship, embarks from New York City and stops in Bermuda. Packages for the Wives on the Waves cruise, planned by Fans at Sea, start at $900.
“I’m looking forward to the bonfire on the Pink Beach. And just like me, I’m like, ‘Oh, kumbaya this is so nice.’ And bringing everyone together — I just can’t wait,” Dolores told Us. “I want people to know that even a lot of people have a trepidation about going away by themselves. And this is not going to be the type of trip that you can’t do if you come — just come with yourself, bring your bags. A lot of single people are coming, and it’s just a fun time to get together and meet people that are like you.”
New episodes of The Traitors will be released on Peacock Thursdays until March 6.
