BBC The Traitors star Charlotte Chilton has revealed that she almost took her own life when she was battling with an agonising pain disorder known as 'suicide disease'.
The recruitment manager was the latest contestant to be banished from the show as her fellow contestants falsely accused her of playing the role of a Traitor. Since leaving the show, in scenes which aired last week, the 32 year old has candidly opened up on the chronic condition -trigeminal neuralgia, which has caused her to miss out “on a lot of things in life”.
According to the NHS, Trigeminal neuralgia “is sudden, severe facial pain. It's often described as a sharp shooting pain or like having an electric shock in the jaw, teeth or gums.” “Living with trigeminal neuralgia can be very difficult.
It can have a significant impact on a person's quality of life, resulting in problems such as weight loss, isolation and depression ", the NHS states.
The condition is also reportedly known as ‘suicide disease'.
The Traitors star revealed to Metro that she struggled with the pain so much that she “didn’t want to live anymore” and had a “terrible time” after having brain surgery to treat the condition. She said: “You don’t know when you’re going to have your next pain and when you do have your pain, it can be managed sometimes with painkillers or it can be to a point you’re screaming, you want to stick a knife in your face because it’s unbearable.” She continued: “It’s actually known as the "suicide disease" because it has such a high percentage of people who [die by] suicide because it’s just agony.

Season two of The Traitors has officially come to a close, and what a dramatic and eventful series it has been. Following the grand finale last night, viewers watched Army Engineer Harry Clark take home the £95,000 cash prize as he was revealed to be a Traitor.
The Traitors fans think they've spotted a clue that proves Mollie Pearce still hasn't forgiven Harry Clark for his immense betrayal in the final of the BBC show. The highly-anticipated final episode of series two of The Traitors aired on Friday, 26 January, with Harry, Mollie, Jaz, Andrew and Evie all making it to the last round of the competition. Harry, 22, came out on top and took home the £95,000 prize fund after deceiving his fellow contestants - most notably Mollie, 21, who was convinced throughout the entire show that Harry was a faithful, when he was in fact a traitor.
It's the series on everyone's lips at the moment - The Traitors' has been dominating the second halves of our weeks recently. After a month-long run, all the backstabbing and deceiving comes to an end tonight (Friday January 26).
As The Traitors prepares to crown its winner in a jaw dropping finale to four long weeks of nail-biting telly, Traitor Harry Clarke has earned the ire of many of his fans after it emerged that he may not have been telling the truth about his wealth on screen.Throughout the competition so far, the 22 year old army engineer has often said he wanted to earn the coveted cash prize of up to £120,000 to help improve the quality of his life and help to support his family. Ahead of the final roundtable, Harry revealed that: "My happiness comes from making everyone around me happy.
With just one more episode left to go until The Traitors declares the series 2 winners, fans of the BBC show think they have worked out the 'real winners' ahead of tonight's final, 26 January. 22 players have now been whittled down to a final five contestants, consisting of two Traitors and three Faithfuls.
The Traitors star Zack Davies has apologised for "ruining" the show by managing to get Ross Carson banished just as he was starting his plot to avenge murdered mum Diane. Last week, viewers of the BBC One show were left on a cliffhanger as Harry and Andrew recruited Ross to join the Traitors without realising that murdered contestant Diane was his mum and he accepted with a plan to get revenge for her.
The Traitors fans were on the very edge of their seats during the first episode of the week, when yet another contestant was eliminated just two days before the grand final. With the finish line now just two sleeps away, sadly Ross fell at the final hurdle after they were brutally turned upon during a very tense and hostile roundtable session.
Since The Traitors kicked off earlier this month, we've been getting to know the contestants hoping to walk away with the huge cash prize. Jasmine Boatswain is one of the Faithfuls hoping to weed out the last of the remaining Traitors ahead of the final on Friday, 26 January. Away from the show, hosed by Claudia Winkleman, it looks as though Jasmine goes by a different name.
Harry Clark put on a united front with his girlfriend Anna Maynard in new photos, following claims that Anna kissed Gogglebox star George Baggs. TV star Harry, 22, has seen his relationship with CBBC presenter Anna, 23, come into the spotlight, due to his appearance on the second series of BBC's The Traitors. Reports have emerged claiming Anna - younger sister of singer Conor Maynard and YouTuber Jack Maynard - kissed content creator George, 21, back in 2022 while in a relationship with Harry.
The Traitors final is fast approaching after a whirlwind few weeks of betrayal, brutal round table bluffs and tricky challenges as the contestants fight for their chance at winning the huge cash prize. We've eagerly watched Traitor Harry successfully rid three of his fellow teammates, Ash, Miles and Paul during the round table banishments, with Andrew and Ross now on his side as recruited Traitors.

The Traitors star Harry Clark quickly became an ultimate fan-favourite during this year's series, but it has now been reported that his girlfriend Anna Maynard "kissed" Gogglebox star George Baggs "behind his back". Harry swiftly cemented his status as the "best Traitor ever" when he turned against previous top dog Paul Gorton. As fans fell in love with army engineer Harry's cheeky and warm personality, it emerged that the 22 year old was already known in the media world for dating CBBC presenter Anna, 23.
A celebrity edition of The Traitors is allegedly being considered by the BBC, following the huge success of series two of the murder-mystery reality show. The Traitors, hosted by Claudia Winkleman, 52, returned to screens in January with a second series, which has proven to be even more successful than the first series, with around four million people tuning in to watch each episode.
Fans of The Traitors appear to have already picked their winner, and are hoping he'll win "solo", after Wednesday's edition of the thrilling BBC show saw fan-favourite Diane 'murdered' and Traitor Miles uncloaked and banished. The unexpected development came after his fellow Traitor Paul orchestrated the discovery of his poisoning, something which lead to Miles being voted out of the Scottish castle. As the players thanked Paul for revealing Miles as a Traitor, Paul broke down in tears and put on an Oscar- worthy show - however, fellow Traitor Harry wasn't impressed.

But Harry isn't new to the spotlight - he's dating CBBC presenter Anna Maynard, who hosts the show Got What It Takes.
The second series of The Traitors is currently on our screens and has gripped viewers yet again after the success of the first season. Throughout the show, a select few 'Traitors' picked by presenter Claudia Winkleman 'murder' one Faithful every night so they can try and walk away with all of the £120,000 prize pot earned in the team's daily missions. In turn, at round tables each evening, the whole group votes individually to 'banish' one of the cast members, hoping that they will discover it was a Traitor to whom they gave their marching orders.
One of TV's most gripping series has returned, and it's already brought some serious shade from some of The Traitors. One contestant that fans were sad to see go was Sonja, 66, who looked dramatically different before appearing on the BBC show, following her staggering five-stone weight loss. Sonja became the first star to be banished from the castle after her co-stars wrongly suspected her to be a Traitor.
Following on from his heartbreaking banishment on episode four of The Traitors, newly eliminated Faithful Brian revealed he had undertaken a very special tribute to the show to commemorate his participation in the exciting experience. Appearing on The Traitors: Uncloaked, Brian opened up about how it felt to be axed from the series as he admitted that the ‘sheep’ label he had been given during a recent mission had really stuck with him.
