The Notorious Traitors Winner's Bankroll Breakdown
Harry Clark, the bloke who clinched the top prize on The Traitors UK Season 2, has spilled the beans about his £95,000 victory loot. With a cheeky grin and a humble demeanor, this former Army helicopter engineer reveals his frugal spendings and future plans.
Following his shrewd strategy that bamboozled his fellow contestants, Clark bagged the entire prize pot for himself in 2024. Far from splurging on designer labels or flashy cars, Clark has remained grounded, choosing to help his family instead.
He confided in The Telegraph, "I paid off my mum and dad's pesky debts, and the rest is tucked away in a high-interest investment account just growing stronger." Clark's selfless act of paying off his parents' bills is a testament to his unwavering loyalty and family values.
Undoubtedly, Clark's responsible approach to his newfound wealth deserves applause. But he didn't stop there. The Kind-hearted champion took his entire brood on an unforgettable sojourn to Portugal, a trip their feet hadn't touched since 2010. Clark shares, "It was a moment of pride after the show, and I feel great about sharing this adventure with my loved ones."
Looking ahead, Clark plans to return to Portugal this year, only this time with a larger group, making it a momentous gathering for the Clarks.
Interestingly, the council house resident in Slough, Berkshire has no immediate plans to ditch his humble abode. Despite his meteoric rise to fame and fortune, Clark remains down-to-earth, choosing to stay rooted in his community.
Behind the Scenes: Listening to the Heartbeat of Harry Clark
Beyond his win on The Traitors, Clark's life has been a rollercoaster ride, as he's battled personal demons and mental health struggles. Clark confessed that his life has been a 50/50 blend of ups and downs, with the darker periods pushing him to the brink.
Clark disclosed that he grappled with suicidal thoughts at 21, following his military service. However, he found solace in his Catholic faith, which provided the foundation for his emotional healing and self-discovery. Clark shares:
"Life is precious, and I don't want to waste a single moment. The Army helped shape me into the man I am today, but it was also the source of my darkness. I learned to face my emotions, to give myself time to process them, and when I was done, I couldn't let them control me anymore."
Post-The Traitors, Clark left the Army, and his life has taken a positive turn. He's found love in his girlfriend Anna, the sister of popstar Conor Maynard. Together, they've faced the highs and lows of fame, as Harry won the National Television Award for best reality competition, beating powerhouse shows like Love Island and The Apprentice[1].
