Jade has kept a low profile in the castle, often choosing to observe rather than dominate conversations. This quiet approach has made other players wary, but later episodes reveal there is much more to her story than meets the eye.

Jade’s Age, Job and Location

Jade is 25 years old and comes from the West Midlands. She is currently a PhD student and describes herself as highly observant, believing she notices details others might overlook.

She has explained that her academic background has helped sharpen her problem-solving skills, something she hopes will give her an advantage during missions and roundtable discussions.

Jade has also said she values teamwork and believes she can work well with different personalities inside the game.

Why Is Jade Seen as Distant on The Traitors?

As the season progresses, viewers learn why Jade sometimes appears reserved. During an emotional dinner in episode nine, she opened up about a devastating loss that changed her life forever.

Jade revealed that her parents divorced when she was young and her mother later moved back to Hong Kong. In 2018, tragedy struck when both her mother and sister were found dead.

Speaking to the group, Jade shared how deeply the loss affected her and how she has had to rebuild her life since then. She explained that losing such close family members was a shock that reshaped her identity and outlook on life.

Why Did Jade Apply for The Traitors?

Jade applied for The Traitors because of her love for strategy-based video games. Many of the games she plays in her spare time involve deception, alliances and reading people — skills that closely match the format of the show.

She felt the challenge suited her mindset and saw the show as a chance to test herself in a real-world psychological game.

What Would Jade Do with the Prize Money?

Jade has said that if she wins, she would use the money to buy her own home. For her, the prize represents stability and a fresh start after years of personal hardship.

Jade’s Cardigan Sparks Viewer Buzz

In a recent episode, Jade’s cardigan caught the attention of fans, quickly becoming a talking point on social media. Viewers praised the design, with many asking where it could be purchased.

As The Traitors season 4 continues, Jade’s quiet strategy, emotional strength and analytical approach could make her either a surprise finalist — or a target as suspicion inside the castle continues to rise.
