Which couple will resort to betrayal in order to come out on top? Fans were left reeling after the latest episode of ITV's reality series Fortune Hotel, where the three remaining couples fought for the chance to win the grand prize of £250,000. The competition has reached new heights of lies, deceit, and betrayal, making for a thrilling penultimate episode.
In Wednesday night's episode, four couples - Jae and Cherish, Jo-Anne and Will, Aysha and Samm, and Scott and Tommy - made strategic alliances and broke them in order to secure their spot in the final tomorrow night. The episode was full of shocking moments, including a challenge where the couples were secretly ranked on qualities like "biggest whinger," "biggest snake," and "most fun couple." Jae and Cherish emerged as the winners of the challenge, guaranteeing them the final briefcase swap and putting them one step closer to victory.
But the end-of-episode briefcase swap was not without its tense moments. Jae and Cherish betrayed their alliance with Samm and Aysha, swapping away their briefcase full of money and leaving their former allies down on their luck. Samm and Aysha faced a tough loss, while Scott and Tommy were sent packing. The final three couples are now set to battle it out under the guidance of host Stephen Mangan in the nail-biting finale.
Fans are already fiercely divided over who they believe should win. Many have declared Jae and Cherish as the clear frontrunners, praising their strategic gameplay. "@louiseupcycler" wrote on X, "Cherish and Jae have played a cracking game, so they are my faves." "@mrsshaneyb" added, "Fortune Hotel is brilliant - a bit of a slow burner but fun - Cherish & Jae are awesome."
On the other hand, some viewers are not on board with Jae and Cherish's backstabbing ways. "@grumpypandarant" called them out as "the biggest snakes of the game." For those not rooting for Jae and Cherish, the mother-son duo of Jo-Anne and Will is a popular choice. "I don't care who wins @FortuneHotelUK as long as it's not Cherish and Jae," wrote "@IanWinter." "@EveBallard" echoed the sentiment, saying, "Jae and Cherish...HYPOCRISY."
But not everyone is picking sides. Some viewers are simply enjoying the intense competition and the clever gameplay of all the contestants. "@Ryanjl" tweeted, "Give Jae and Cherish all the money." "N° 8 ©" shared the same sentiment, saying, "The smartest people playing this game properly are the ones we don't like."
As the anticipation builds for the final tomorrow night, it's anyone's guess who will come out on top. For those looking to catch up before the finale, here's what you need to know. The show is set in a luxurious Caribbean hotel, where nine empty briefcases and one filled with cash await the couples. With the early checkout card out of the game, the stakes have never been higher. The only way to leave is with the winning briefcase or nothing at all.
The Fortune Hotel will continue tomorrow on ITV and ITVX at 9pm. And for viewers who can't get enough, there's more good news - the show has been recommissioned for another season. But for now, the burning question remains: which couple will snatch the crown and the enormous check? Only time will tell.
