The Traitors has become known for its shocking plot twists which previously included a secret couple and a mother-son relationship in previous series.
Previously, contestants had chosen to keep their relationships hidden from their co-stars for part or all of their duration at the castle.
But at the beginning of the third season, Maia and Armani revealed that they were sisters and chose to tell the rest of the cast about their sisterly connection.
Since the BBC show began last week, fans have become convinced that the sisters are not the only couple who knew each other before the show.
In addition to the contestants becoming detectives, viewers have also become super detectives by sharing theories about connections the Faithful have missed.
Online sleuths have suggested they could be a grandmother and grandson, as well as a mother and son, hiding in plain sight.
The Traitors has become known for its shocking plot twists that previously included a secret couple and a mother-son relationship in past series.
Others have speculated that two of the men may be brothers, while another couple is a secret couple as well as a son-in-law connection.
dan and linda
Viewers have claimed that they believe Dan could be Linda’s grandson.
They noted that the two quickly formed a bond from the show’s first episode and that Dan is often found at her side during arguments at the castle.
Fans have said that during conversations, Dan often has Linda’s back, especially when she was under fire in the early episodes.
While it may be suggested that they would separate to hide their relationship, if no one has recorded their closeness, then there would be no need.
Retired opera singer Linda lives in Hertfordshire, while Dan resides in Liverpool, but the distance between them doesn’t necessarily mean they can’t be related.
Dan and Joe clashed in the show’s most recent episode, but some have suggested the familiarity between the pair may suggest a previous bond.
Lisa and Alex
Another theory circulating online is that Anglo priest Lisa, who is from Cornwall, is related to care manager Alex, from Whitby.
Lisa, who has yet to reveal her profession to the rest of the cast, bears a striking resemblance to Alex, but others are convinced she could actually be his mother-in-law.
Alex previously shared that he watched the first series of the show with his mother-in-law, who thought he would do well in the games.
In a Reddit thread, one person speculated, “These two have to be related, right?”
Another fan of the BBC show added: ‘I saw a comment on Reddit last week saying that they are the only two contestants whose social media is private (I haven’t verified this myself); “If that’s the case, I’d say that’s a big shout.”

dan and joe
Dan and Joe clashed in the most recent episode of the show, but some have suggested that the familiarity between the pair may suggest a previous bond.
While some have stated that they believe Dan and Joe may be in a relationship, others have said that they believe the two men could be brothers.
Dan’s dramatic look at Joe during Wednesday’s episode was an expression only an exasperated brother would make during a family fight.
Their bickering has not gone unnoticed by viewers, who claimed that the ease with which they argue suggests there is already a connection there.
Sharing their thoughts on X, viewers mused: ‘Wait, those two guys arguing at the end of the roundtable sound and look exactly the same. Are they related?
And: ‘Do we think there are more relationships in the house? Did Dan and Joe look and sound the same a minute ago!? And Frankie also looks like she could be related to Joe… hmm’

frankie and freddy
Frankie and Freddie have sparked speculation that they could be mother and son.
Their close bond won the hearts of viewers, but also led them to believe that they may already know each other outside of the show.
After Freddie burst into tears at the round table, Frankie wrapped him in a warm hug and assured him that “it’s just a game.”
Frankie previously said that Freddie “reminded him of his own son”, who is similar in age, but perhaps he is actually his son.
X viewers seem to think so, as they said: ‘I’ll say it… Freddie and Francesca are mother and son?’
‘Freddie is definitely Francesca’s son… right? #TheTraitors’ and ‘Francesca is Freddie’s mom, calling him out!’

charlotte and alejandro
Alexander returned to the show on Wednesday night after hastily leaving the show just moments into the first episode by sacrificing his spot on the train.
He returned to screens in a huge hanging cage and his co-stars had to earn coins to pay for his release.
When Charlotte handed him a coin, she gave Alexander a big smile as she dropped a coin to put him down.
Viewers noted that he apparently overcompensated by shouting “thank you, I don’t know you, but thank you.”
Charlotte is currently pretending to have a Welsh accent and has been tricking her co-stars into thinking she is originally from South Wales.
He actually has a posh English accent and Alexander speaks equally well, as they both live in London.
Fans also noticed some flirty body language between the couple during a chat.
