Leanne Quigley, winner of the third season of the BBC reality competition show The Traitors, has separated from her fiancée, Sophie Jones, after seven years together. A representative for the couple confirmed the separation on Monday, stating that their focus remains on their two sons, three-year-old twins Harley and Hudson.
A source told The Sun that the split is amicable, with the couple having grown apart over time but intending to continue co-parenting. Quigley, 30, and Jones, 33, were engaged in August 2024.
Quigley rose to national attention in January 2025 when she won The Traitors. During the show, she presented herself as a nail technician, concealing her 12-year career as a corporal in the British Army. Her victory followed a challenging period for the couple, as Jones was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2024, just weeks after Quigley finished filming the show. Jones has since received an all-clear.
Following her win, Quigley had expressed interest in using Ardross Castle in the Scottish Highlands, the filming location for The Traitors, as her wedding venue. She had mentioned that wedding planning had begun but no date had been set. The Great Hall at Ardross Castle is available for hire for events, accommodating up to 130 guests.
Quigley previously spoke to Metro about the ordeal of Sophie's cancer diagnosis, stating she would not have left to film if her partner had been ill. She also noted her recent departure from the army in October and a desire to spend more time with her family. As of Monday, Quigley had not publicly announced the split on social media, and recent pictures of Jones were absent from her Instagram profile.
