21-year-old apprentice economist Kyra Johnson is a contestant on series two of The Traitors, but her appearance on the show led fans to wonder why she looked familiar.

Taking to X, fans were scratching their heads as they wondered where they had seen Kyra before - until they realised she had made an appearance on ITV's rebooted Deal or No Deal just two months ago.

One person wrote: 'Was watching the episode thinking....i know Kyra, where have I seen her.... then it clicked, she was on deal or no deal a few weeks ago.' Another fan replied: 'THAT'S IT! It was frustrating me I couldn't think of where I'd seen her.'

Another viewer wrote: 'Kyra was in deal or no deal i'm sure.' Someone else said: 'i'm like 40 mins in and i'm like WHO IS KYRA...she was on deal or no deal the other week!!' (sic)

During her appearance on Deal or No Deal, Kyra unfortunately didn't have much luck, eliminating two of the 'Big Five' boxes within just 10 minutes of the show.

At the end of the game, she was left with two boxes - one with £4,000 in and the other containing just £1. After being offered £1,800 by the banker to trade her box, Kyra took the offer and walked away from the game.

On the show, Kyra also discussed her romantic life with host Stephen Mulhern, revealing that she'd been with her boyfriend Marco for five years. When Stephen asked why he had not proposed, Kyra replied: "Ask him!", to which her boyfriend nervously added: "It's coming soon."
