Celebrity Traitors star King Kenny has said his Christian faith is at the "forefront of everything" in his life and that he prayed for guidance while he was in the castle.

The content creator and former boxer who was recruited as a traitor during his time on the BBC One show, was speaking to his fellow contestant Amol Rajan for the latter's podcast, The Amol Rajan Connection. 

Asked by Rajan what role God played in his life, the 29-year-old said He is "100% at the forefront of everything, always praying. You know, sometimes I see something so beautiful, and I just thank God. I'm like, wow, look at that, because I believe obviously God made Earth, and we're all His creations. I just think, yeah, it's beautiful".

King Kenny, whose real name is Kenny Oghenovo Ojuederie, became a Traitor in Episode 5 of this year's series, having been recruited by Maya Jama and James Acaster. Before the series, he had said it would be difficult to be a traitor as he found it difficult to tell lies.

But despite this, he went on to relish the role, making it all the way to the final when he was finally banished from the Scottish castle.

Speaking to Rajan, he said while filming the series, "Some nights I prayed, just a prayer for guidance, just thank you for life. To be honest, most of my prayers are just, I'm very thankful these days because I didn't have a lot growing up. So every time I wake up, everything just still feels so surreal. So most of my prayers these days are just thanking, just being very grateful for everything that I have".

Asked whether his Christian faith meant he leads a life of service, Kenny agreed and said he gives most of his money away, but that he had stopped spoiling his brother "so much to the point where he's spoilt, so I've stopped it. I stopped it for him. But my little sister, I still spoil my little sister. Like my mum and my sister, I spoil them".
