The Celebrity Traitors has concluded, with Alan Carr emerging as the winner despite his frequent sweating and speaking louder than others. A key question remained after the show: are Alan and singer Paloma Faith, who he dramatically targeted early in the series, still on good terms?
During the finale of the companion show Uncloaked, host Ed Gamble challenged Alan directly in front of Paloma:
"Now with the nation watching, do you think it's time for an apology? I mean, Paloma's sat right there."
Alan responded with a mix of humor and sincerity:
"I am so sorry. You know I am and I want to tell everyone that I'm the father of a child. We had a make-up hug, one thing led to another."
Paloma, who is currently pregnant with her fourth child, shared her feelings amid her hormonal emotions:
"Observing tonight and going through my whole plethora of hormonal emotions I feel like that the reason why Alan won, and the reason why I was so sad, was because we all love him so much. And I love you so much and I'm so happy that you won because it was bloody worth it then."
She added thoughts on the public’s voting behavior:
"But I think that most people didn't vote for you because they're like how can we vote someone that's so lovable and it really concludes that thing that you... you won it, you hurt me and I loved you, but...."
"Only love can hurt like that.."
– a witty nod to Paloma’s 2014 hit Only Love Can Hurt Like This.
Overall, their exchange highlights a complex but affectionate friendship strengthened despite on-show conflicts.
