Dolores Catania claimed Kate Chastain ruined the Scotland experience for all future contestants on “The Traitors.”
Contestants on the reality TV series have limited access to their cell phones during filming, but Chastain allegedly learned how to communicate with outsiders through her TV. When producers caught wind of it, they removed everyone’s remote control privileges.
“I heard Kate Chastain learned how to talk to her friends with the clicker and so they took it away from everyone,” the “Real Housewives of New Jersey” star told hosts Danny Murphy and Evan Real during Page Six’s “Virtual Reali-Tea” live event, presented by Tri-State Cadillac, on Thursday.

“You could go on YouTube with the remote,” the Bravolebrity said of Chastain’s alleged behavior during her time on Season 1 and 2, “so [now] no one gets a remote!”
Catania theorized that Chastain was using YouTube to “email — I think.”
“Kate Chastain is so smart,” the 54-year-old — who currently stars on Season 3 of “The Traitors” gushed. “She is so smart and brilliant and funny.”

She later made a cameo appearance during Season 3 while participating in a life-sized chess challenge.

Earlier in the day, Catania spoke to Us Weekly about the Season 3 finale airing Thursday night and revealed that her former “Traitors” friends were upset to have been eliminated early on in the show.
“The Bravo people are not gamers. I don’t know why [the other contestants] felt the need to kill all my friends off,” she said.
“They should have left them there because they had no idea what they were doing. And Chanel [Ayan] is mad. She’s so mad. Dorinda [Medley] is so mad.”

She also went on to say that the “Traitors” stars who have to face the “Real Housewives of New York City” alum and the “Real Housewives of Dubai” star are “in trouble.”
“I feel sorry for those Traitors when they match up with the Housewives at the reunion. They’re in trouble,” she warned.
The first three seasons of “The Traitors” are available to stream on Peacock.
