The Traitors Season 3 Winners Share How They Spent Their Prize Money

In the thrilling finale of The Traitors Season 3, four Faithful’s—Dolores Catania, Dylan Efron, Ivar Mountbatten, and Gabby Windey—walked away victorious, splitting a grand prize of $204,300. For Mountbatten, 61, the decision to remain loyal at the fire pit was an easy one. Efron, 33, took a more analytical approach, running the numbers before making his final call. “If we had voted out Dolores, the three of us would’ve gotten an extra $17,000 each—after taxes, that’s about $10,000,” he explained. “At that point, I’d rather keep my friendships intact.”

How They Spent Their Winnings

Efron used his share in a practical way—upgrading his living situation. “I finally moved out of my tiny one-bedroom studio,” he said. “Now I have a guest room and even a dishwasher. I’m still figuring out how to use it!” Mountbatten’s prize money went to his daughter Ella, 28. As the father of three children with ex-wife Penny, he wanted to ensure fairness. “My eldest and youngest went to university, so I covered their tuition. But my middle child, a paramedic, took a different path,” he explained. “She’s been dreaming of getting a camper van to travel, and I felt she deserved it. So, I made sure she got it.”

Catania, 54, had originally planned to treat herself—but that idea quickly changed when her son Frankie got engaged to Nicole Perricho. “I was going to buy something for myself, but now that’s out the window,” she joked. “My son got engaged, so that’s where my money’s going!”

Beyond family, the Real Housewives of New Jersey star also set aside part of her winnings for charity, donating to Halfway Home animal rescue and a shelter in Paterson, N.J. “Winning was my reward,” she said proudly. “I’m a f—ing winner. Get out of my way; I won The Traitors! Don’t f— with me.”
