RIP Diane: Wipe your tears and enjoy these The Traitors memes from last night’s masterpiece

Last night’s episode of The Traitors will go down in history as one of the best episodes of reality telly we have ever seen and will ever see. Our queen Diane got the camp send-off she deserved instead of making us sit through the snore-fest of the missions and it was just a beautiful piece of television.

But sadly after delusioning ourselves for four days thinking that Queen Di wouldn’t drink from the chalice and escape death, we saw her be literally lowered down in a coffin as her son watched in horror. Everything about last night’s episode from the choir, the slow march, Diane’s goodbye to Ross and Diane’s final word catching a traitor being right, all of it was just cinema.

Diane was the queen of Twitter and by far the most popular contestant so it’s not a surprise that the memes honouring the legend have been flowing thick and fast.

So, to help you mourn the death of our Diane, enjoy these 24 The Traitors memes from last night’s piece of cinema:

If you have to die, at least make it by sparkling rosé!

It’s like a reward

Choosing which coffin to throw your rose into is like the little charity token bit at the end of Tesco #TheTraitors

Not I’m Every Woman

Diane from #TheTraitors needs to get herself a gay agent immediately. Only we can be trusted to book her right. I want her on QVC selling nice tops, I want her wheeled onto the BRITs red carpet in her coffin, I want her version of I'm Every Woman for Children In Need.

Ross gonna needs therapy after this ordeal

Imagine having to watch your mum slowly succumb to poison as she takes part in a highly camp gothic death march hosted by national treasure Claudia Winkleman 😔
