The Traitors Mollie Pearce quits social media as trolls abuse her for being ‘stupid’
THE Traitors star Mollie Pearce has been forced to quit social media after being trolled and cruelly branded “stupid”.
Mollie, 21, was left gobsmacked as her show BFF Harry Clark revealed he was “and had been from the start” a Traitor in the gripping BBC series.
With just the two contestants left in The Traitors final round table, this meant that Harry swiped the entirety of the cash from faithful Mollie.
The disability model has now taken a step back from social media as she begged people to stop sending her nasty messages.
She told The Mirror : “I’m obviously new to all of that so I’m trying to process it and get my head around it and I’m kind of trying to stay off socials a little bit because I think today is going to be a bit rough,’
“I think it’s very easy for the public to say that I was stupid and stuff like that but at the end of the day I’m 21 and I’ve got emotions – what could I do?’.”
She added: “I think people forget that you’re human when they’re watching it on TV, but we do all have feelings so people should be more cautious with their comments.”
It comes after Mollie skipped Harry’s celebratory reunion party with the other cast members after he won £95,000.
He was joined by fellow traitors Paul Gorton, Ash Bibi and Miles Asteri, as well as faithfuls Jonny Holloway, Brian Davidson and Charlotte Chilton.
Harry was also seen linking arms and embracing fan favourite Diane Carson.
She has also failed to follow the winner on social media – hinting that the feud between the pair is still not resolved.
Last night, Mollie broke her silence on Harry’s betrayal and admitted she “hated him” in the direct aftermath.
The pair were reunited on spin-off show The Traitors Uncloaked after the final aired – which saw
Fans branded Mollie “naive” as the last round table played out as she kept her loyalties to her friend.
The Traitors’ second season came to its epic conclusion as Mollie chose to vote off Jaz rather than Harry, sealing his victory and earning him the £95,000 prize.
One unimpressed fan wrote: “Called that ending. Mollie was naive throughout and couldn’t pick a traitor. Harry played a blinder.”
Meanwhile, also on today’s BBC Breakfast, Harry revealed he had returned to his normal job straight after being crowned champion.
He also let slip the secret training that helped him win the show.
