Yep, 'Survivor' Winners Boston Rob And Amber Are Totally Still Together After 16 Years (2024)

Ruthless Hatch couldn’t have made a bigger statement for season one—hey, he walked around camp naked! And he was also a bit wild post-Survivor, too. In 2005, he was accused of tax evasion, since he had never paid the taxes on his $1 million prize. Uh-oh. He spent 2006 to 2009 in jail, then never paid again, and went back.

Wesson won the second season and then competed two more times, including once with her daughter. Today? She’s having fun and living life! "Survivor to me was just another experience, but it was an experience that allowed me to go do a lot of other fun things that I would have never got to do," she said to WVLT News in 2018. "My life is basically what you see...I live here in the woods. I bike, swim, kayak, motorcycle, anything I want to do, just take your pick. And then I play, and travel."

Zohn unfortunately was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s Lymphoma in 2009, but he was pronounced cancer-free in 2009. For a bit after the season ended, Zohn dated another Survivor winner, Jenna Morasca, but they broke up in 2012. He married Lisa Heyword in 2016. "This is the reason I survived cancer twice... to meet Lisa and start a beautiful and healthy new life together,” he said.

As for Towery, she went back to her life at home with her husband, and she didn’t let the prize or win go to her head. "Survivor changed my life very little," she said during the TV Guide Network Survivor Winners special. "I say that because my husband I both chose to not allow it to change our lives. I still shop at Walmart."

Beating Clay Jordan in a 4-3 vote, Heidik wasn’t a fan favorite, being one of the least likable winners on Survivor. And he spent all his money on sports cars basically—not so smart. He also faced an arrest in 2006 when he ex-wife Charmaine Costigan claimed he tried to shoot a puppy with a bow and arrow. So, there’s that!

The youngest player to ever win (she was only 21), she is remembered for getting naked for some peanut butter and for dating fellow winner Ethan Zohn for a bit post-season. Jenna ended up hosting some shows for TV Guide Network. She and Ethan competed on The Amazing Race and starred on their own show, Everyday Health. In 2018, she got a DUI arrest for biting a cop (whoops), but now she says she’s doing great!

An all-star, she won twice—season 7 and 20. AMAZING. She competed on Game Changers, but was voted off, sadly. She’s a legend though and lives a normal life at home with her kids and dogs. She's also on the current season, acting as a mentor for the contestants on Island of the Idols. (Which I am watching and am obsessed with, FYI.)

Talk about a love story: Brkich beat her future hubby, "Boston Rob" Mariano, in a 4-3 vote. The couple is known for their crazy proposal at the live finale, which, let’s just say a few members were probably not too thrilled about. They got married in 2005, went on to do some reality TV, had four baby girls, and are doing well today.

After winning, he went on to build a home, buy a Harley (a treat well deserved!), and then resumed normal life. "Everyone said my life would change, but life returned to normal," he told People. "I work as a project inspector for the Department of Transportation. I have the same friends, live in the same town and am really happy with where I am."

A legend with one of the most impressive games ever, he won five immunity idols and was known as one of Jeff Probst’s favorite winners of all time. Now that’s a huge accomplishment! After retiring as a firefighter, he went on to sell life and disability insurance in New York City. He also appeared on Heroes vs. Villains as a hero, but was the fifth person voted out.

The former Miss Kentucky USA married NFL alum Casey Wiegmann and they now live in Kansas City with their two baseball-playing sons. "I'm a country girl so I had to be close to the sticks. I literally travel every weekend for competitive baseball," she said. She also has a clothing line, Sideline Chic, and wrote a children’s book. So, she’s making things happen!

The yogi amped up his music career after his big win, working with singer-songwriter Damien Rice and creating music under the name Odd Us. He also opened a yoga studio in Cape Town, South Africa, and married model Christy Petersen.

One of the nicest and most admired winners ever, Kwon became a TV host and lecturer for the FBI. He found his new favorite dessert—frozen yogurt—and opened up a few Red Mango locations in San Francisco. He also married a woman with a Survivor connection! "I also met my future wife, Sophie, through my tribemate, Brad Virata," he told EW.

The first-ever unanimous winner, getting all votes from the jury, Cole made quite the statement in season 14. He ended up spending his dough on travel, and he even went back to Fiji (but this time in a nice resort). He also created the Earl Cole Fund to support Legg-Calve-Perthes Disease, which he had during childhood.

Herzog unfortunately struggled with alcohol abuse after winning his season, and discussed it as a guest on the Dr. Phil Show in 2013. But during his Reddit AMA in 2018, he said he is now running a movie theater and is happy and sober.

A fan favorite, she created a Black Widow Brigade alliance to unite all the female castaways. She married Survivor: Samoa castaway John Fincher, and they welcomed their first child in July 2018. She’s now a yoga teacher and business coach, as seen on her Instagram.

The oldest person to win (he was 57!), he was also the most underestimated, but ended up getting tons of immunity wins and pulled through to the end. Now, he’s retired from teaching and created Maine Forest Yurts, which provides people with an awesome camping experience in Maine. He also started Durham Warriors, a non-profit for military and disabled veterans.

Although he won season 18, he ended up making one of the WORST mistakes in the show’s history during Heroes vs. Villains (whoops) and went on to compete in Game Changers, too. Today, he is married and working on his cattle ranch. He spent the money on his family and invested the rest.

A youngster, this 21-year-old surfer ended up taking home the grand prize. What did he do with the money? "I'm starting a production company. We're just gonna do 45-minute short films," Fabio said of his plans after the finale. "I'd like to do a little bit of stand-up, I think it'd be really fun. I've written like 60 poems. Some really cool stuff." I'm not sure if that happened, but he did get arrested for skateboarding under the influence. He did make bail—thanks, Survivor money!
