Kirby Bentley wins The Traitors Australia 2026 – Kirby Bentley has been crowned the winner of The Traitors Australia 2026, taking home the entire $200,600 prize pool after a season built on lies, strategy and survival.
The original Traitor takes the prize
The final game came down to Bentley, Keira Maguire, Krissy Marsh and fellow Traitor Rhys Nicholson. After Nicholson was banished at the final Round Table, Bentley, Maguire and Marsh gathered around the fire for the last stage of the competition.
Both Bentley and Maguire chose to banish again, which sent Marsh out of the game. Maguire then revealed herself as a Faithful before Bentley finally revealed she had been an original Traitor from day one. The move made Bentley the last Traitor standing and the 2026 winner.
For Channel 10, Bentley’s victory gives the finale a defining payoff: a player who had faced suspicion from the opening days survived every banishment and kept her identity hidden until the final reveal. It also adds another major reality-TV win to the former AFLW player and Australian Survivor all-star’s competitive record.
A high-pressure game
A proud Noongar Yamatji woman, Bentley said the win was significant beyond the prize money. “Everything that I do is bigger than just me,” she said. “This is massive, not only for my family, but for Aboriginal people, and women as well.”
Bentley said she was close to being banished repeatedly through the game. She described winning as an extraordinary result after surviving the early days under suspicion. “I just won The Traitors when I nearly got banished on day two, day three, day four, day five,” she said.
