Pregnant Paloma Faith debuts new look as she prepares for showdown with ex BFF Alan Carr at Traitors reunion – but Ruth Codd is a no-show after calling Jonathan Ross a ‘snake’
Pregnant Paloma Faith revealed her new look as she reunited with Alan Carr and Jonathan Ross in The Traitors finale, while Ruth Codd was absent.
The 44-year-old singer was all smiles as she cradled her growing baby bump for a reunion show at New Broadcasting House in London.
Paloma, who announced her pregnancy last month, appears to have ditched her blonde curls while showing off her long black hair and bangs.
He will be reunited with Traitors’ nemesis Alan Carr, who is beaming as he arrives at BBC headquarters ahead of the final episode to air this week.
Paloma had previously expressed her sadness for Alan, who killed her, and the comedian admitted that he was hurt by this decision.
Jonathan Ross was also photographed arriving in a brown suit with a black T-shirt underneath.

The singer will come face to face with Traitors’ nemesis Alan Carr, who was laughing when he arrived at BBC headquarters ahead of the episode airing.
Jonathan Ross also looked windy as he arrived in a brown suit with a black T-shirt underneath.
Presenter Claudia Winkleman, who will host her own BBC chat show, can also be seen in the capital for the reunion.
However, Ruth Codd is notable for her absence following her row with chat show host Jonathan on the murder mystery series.
The Daily Mail revealed Ruth was left ‘stunned’ after being killed during a behind-the-scenes meltdown and called Jonathan a ‘fucking snake’.
Sources on the show revealed that the 29-year-old Irish actress was ‘furious’ after being eliminated earlier in the series and took her anger out on host Jonathan, who she correctly predicted was the traitor, before exacting her revenge.
An insider revealed that Ruth was genuinely ‘angry’ and described her exclusion in the early stages of the competition as a ‘fucking joke’.
Jonathan has since made amends and shared how he has been communicating with the actor since their big argument.
Other stars from this year’s first series arriving for the reunion include Tameka Empson, Celia Imrie, Kate Garraway, Nick Mohammed, Clare Balding, Charlotte Church and Niko Omilana.
English rugby player Joe Marler flashed a peace sign to the cameras, but it remains to be seen whether the celebrity meeting will be peaceful.
Noticeably absent from this star-studded follow-up is Ruth Codd, who follows her fight with Jonathan in the murder mystery series.
Presenter Claudia Winkleman, who will produce her own BBC chat show, can also be seen in the capital for this meeting.

Speaking on his podcast Reel Talk, Jonathan said there was no ‘beef’ between him and Ruth.
He continued: ‘I don’t think there was anyone there that I didn’t like.
‘Obviously, some people leave earlier than others, so you don’t get to spend as much time with them. You know, the younger guys who went out earlier, I couldn’t spend that much time with Niko. [Omilana] or Ruth.
‘I’ve spoken to them since and our lives are different but I definitely think we were friendly when we met so there’s no issue there. But I’d like to think we could be friends.’
The final episode promises to be the most dramatic episode yet as the remaining cast members, Traitors Alan Carr and Cat Burns, and Loyalists Nick Mohammed, David Olusoga and Joe Marler battle it out for prize money for the charity of their choice.
Last week, fans watched as Celia Imrie was brutally murdered by comedian Alan, 49, at a dinner celebration following a roundtable.
Good Morning Britain’s Kate Garraway was also voted out by the Loyalists and sent packing by the group after they were convinced she was cheating on them.
It has been criticized as ‘useless’ for not bringing any theories or names to the table in previous episodes where 11 Faithful were killed or exiled and only one Traitor, Jonathan Ross, was revealed.

Host Claudia Winkleman announced the final quintet revealed around a fire pit where the group had to prove their innocence by telling each other they were Loyalists.
Although the series is currently airing two nights a week on BBC One, fans won’t have to wait for the big reveal as it will take place over one episode.
