Kriste Lewis, 52, and Logan Smith, 26, join the cast of everyday Americans competing on the newest season of the reality TV series.
Two real estate agents will have the rare opportunity to get an inside look at one of television's most infamous properties, the Scottish Highlands castle that serves as the set of hit series "The Traitors," when they join the cast of the new spinoff, "New Blood."
The thrilling competition series—which has featured a host of celebrities, from Travis and Jason Kelce's mother, Donna Kelce, to former "Love Island" star Rob Rausch—is shaking things up with the launch of "The Traitors: True Blood," which will feature 22 “everyday Americans” who will play the game under the watchful eye of host Alan Cumming.
The psychological challenge will pit competitors—assigned the role of either a Traitor or a Faithful—against one another. The Traitors aim to eliminate Faithfuls from the castle to cover their own tracks in an attempt to take home a prize valued up to $250,000.
Aged 23 to 65, this group of civilians comes from all walks of life. In the mix, there are lawyers, a nurse, an astrophysicist, a dog groomer, a teacher, and two real estate professionals named Kriste Lewis and Logan Smith.
Smith, 26, is from Gatlinburg, TN, and told Entertainment Weekly his “unique skillsets” and “unique outlook” would qualify him as a great Traitor.
The reality TV series returns to the Scottish Highlands for another game of "The Traitors" in Ardross Castle. (Ardross Castle) “I just wanna play the simple, honest, Southern guy, and as far as playing, I will be quite the opposite of that,” he shared. This strategy sounds quite similar to the approach last season’s winner, Rausch, used to succeed.
The Tennessee native documents his personal life and professional adventures on his public Instagram account, often showcasing his listings with playful content, such as a Reel in which he shared his favorite hide and seek spots in a one bedroom home he recently sold.
Smith works with MG Rise Real Estate Group and is a member of the National Association of Realtors®. He specializes in commercial and residential real estate as an agent for both buyers and sellers, with his 17 active listings floating in the $160,000 to $630,000 price range.
“As a self-taught Jack-of-all-trades, Logan is so good at accomplishing goals that he decided to add yours to his list as well,” his professional bio states. “Logan is great at negotiating and will help you achieve the best value of your home, selling or buying!”
Lewis, 52, hails from Hattiesburg, MS, and told EW she’s also hoping to become a Traitor.
“It’s go big or go home, you know?” she said.
As for her approach? She says it's going to be a mix of focus and fun.

Alan Cumming has won the Emmy Award for Outstanding Host for a Reality or Reality Competition Program. (NBC Universal) “I’m really just gonna focus and have fun," she shared. "That’s kind of gonna be my motto going into this. Because there are so many moving parts in this game. I wanna be very authentic, even if I’m a Traitor. I wanna stay true to myself.”
Lewis seems confident she’ll be among the last standing at the end of the game.
“I do believe in the law of attraction, and I know when you can go into the universe and just put something out there that’s just fun and great energy that it’ll come right back to you,” she manifested. “So I am the next winner.”
Real estate and positive thinking aren’t the only things keeping Lewis busy. According to her public Instagram bio, she became an NFL cheerleader at the age of 40 for the New Orleans Saints. She’s also a self-proclaimed “boy mom.”
Through the Epique brokerage, the properties Lewis deals with are primarily located in her hometown of Hattiesburg and the surrounding area. Of the 30 sales she’s closed in the last five years, the homes are within the $119,000 to $367,000 price range.
Currently, Lewis has two active listings; a $335,000 three bedroom in Hattiesburg and a $344,900 three bedroom in Sumrall. Both homes are around 2,000 square feet, feature stunning brick exteriors, and spacious outdoor areas.
