Celebrity Traitors winner King Kenny has dismissed speculation that he is in a relationship with co-star Maya Jama, saying the pair simply laugh at the rumors.
Rumors addressed on radio show
During an appearance on Capital XTRA Breakfast, Kenny, whose full name is Kenny Ojuederie, was asked by host Robert Bruce about paparazzi photos linking him to Jama. He replied that they “just laugh at it” and move on, attributing the attention to being in the limelight.

Both Kenny and Jama served as traitors on the second celebrity series of the BBC show, which concluded last week. Kenny reached the final four before being voted out, while Jama was eliminated at the final roundtable.
