Jerry Hall and Richard E Grant are real-life neighbours on Celebrity Traitors

Jerry Hall vouched for neighbour Richard E Grant on Celebrity Traitors, revealing their 30-year friendship.

The Celebrity Traitors cast is packed with real-life connections that could reshape the game. Jerry Hall and Richard E Grant have known each other for over 30 years and now live next door to each other.

Jerry Hall and Richard E Grant met at a Chelsea Flower Show in 2003, acted together in a children's film in 2004, attended Hall's wedding in 2016, and holidayed together in Africa this year. Rob Beckett and Romesh Ranganathan are close friends who have worked on a travel show and panel programmes together for a decade.

Joe Lycett and James Acaster are friends, while both have also worked with other cast members on TV shows. The comedians say they won't hesitate to betray each other if the game demands it.
