The Traitors champion Leanne Quigley has divulged her extravagant wedding plans, intending to use her winnings from the BBC reality game show fora truly Scottish ceremony.
After a successful stint on The Traitors, where she walked away with £94,300 alongside co-winner Jake Brown, Leanne is ready to spend on an unforgettable event.
The Scottish highlands castle featured in the series is her chosen venue to marry long-term partner Sophie, as they envision an idyllic setting to exchange vows and begin their life together as a married couple reports the Mirror.
The couple, parents to two year old twins, are ecstatic about the new possibilities brought by the prize money. In conversation with MailOnline, an enthusiastic Leanne shared details of the wedding preparations: “We have got wedding planning to do. We have just started. We haven’t set a date yet but yeah we can get a wedding going.”
Embracing the connection to The Traitors, Leanne expressed her desire to return to its castle setting for her nuptials: “I actually looked at the castle because I didn’t realise you could get married there. That would be so iconic. I would actually love that.”
Leanne is optimistic that her BBC series co-stars will be present to celebrate her wedding day. She commented: “I mean, the most incredible people I’ve ever met in my life, and the genuine love that we all have for each other. We’ve all had a few meet ups since leaving the castle and every time we see each other, it’s just all love. It’s so lovely.”
Ardross Castle in the Scottish Highlands, featured in The Traitors, offers its Great Hall for hire, making it a potential dream wedding location for Leanne.
However, Leanne’s spending won’t end with the wedding; she has plans to undergo more IVF treatments in the hope of growing her family. She disclosed: “I will absolutely be trying to have another baby, not straight away, maybe in a couple of years, I think.”
