Survivor 50 Cast: Where Are They Now?

CBS’ ‘Survivor’ is a reality competition series that revolves around a diverse group of individuals who step onto an isolated island where they must find food and shelter for themselves. ‘Survivor 50: In the Hands of the Fans’ is no different, except that it allows the audience to impact game choices and production mechanics for the first time ever. It also features only castaways from previous installments, which is intriguing because it levels the playing field quite significantly, since none of them are strangers to the show’s requirements.

Jenna Lewis-Dougherty is a Multifaceted and Driven Woman

A native of Franklin, New Hampshire, Jennifer “Jenna” Lewis-Dougherty competed in the very first season of the series before being invited back for the ‘All Stars’ chapter in 2004.

The Austin resident with a Business Marketing degree from Texas Tech University is a true television personality, having hosted several reality competition shows, including ‘Top Shot,’ ‘Top Guns,’ ‘The Butcher, ‘ ‘Alone,’ and ‘Mountain Men: Ultimate Marksman.’ On a personal level, the car enthusiast is happily married to his longtime partner, Britt Bailey (they tied the knot in 2016), is a proud father of one, is a hobbyist actor as well as a hunter, and is an animal lover.

Stephenie LaGrossa Kendrick is a Public Personality

It was back in 2005 when we were first introduced to Stephenie LaGrossa in season 10, only for her to become such a fan favorite that she also competed in seasons 11 as well as 20. She was once an athlete dedicated to lacrosse, hockey, and swimming, and holds a degree in Business Administration from Monmouth University, but she chose to take the traditional path. Upon tying the knot with professional baseball player Kyle Kendrick on November 13, 2010, she stepped away from everything to focus on their growing family – they gradually welcomed 3 children into the world. They welcomed Sophia in 2011, Kyle Jr. in 2013, and Sloane in 2018. Things changed in 2022 as she returned to the world of reality television as a contestant on ‘Snake in the Grass’ before going on to be a part of ‘The Traitors’ season 1 in 2023.

Benjamin “Coach” Wade is an Artist Involved in Several Endeavors

While Benjamin “Coach” Wade’s stint on season 18 saw him reach the top 5, it was not his best or worst performance on the show, as he placed 12th in season 20 and was the runner-up in season 23. However, the retired soccer coach had no idea at the time that the show would open countless more doors for him as he ended up landing significant roles in ‘180’ (2011), ‘Isabel: A Love Story’ (2014), and ‘Ruger the Rude Dog’ (2021). He even produced the 2020 short drama ‘Marty’s Mountain,’ all the while continuing to compose classical music, serve as the artistic director and conductor of the Susanville Symphony, play the trumpet, as well as teach music.

Chrissy Hofbeck is in the World of Academia and Actuarial Science

Unlike all the aforementioned former contestants, Christine “Chrissy” Hofbeck only appeared in season 35, but it was more than enough for her to really prove her mettle as she finished second. She was a professional actuary when she first came across our screens, and she remains on that path to this day because there is simply nothing she enjoys more than using math/statistics to solve business issues. The Mathematics graduate from the University of Pennsylvania and the MBA graduate from MIT is an academic author, public speaker, and Vice President of Actuarial Development at Fortitude Re in Florida. As for her personal life, the 54-year-old hobbyist painter, rock climber, and water sports enthusiast has been happily married to Keith Hofbeck for over 28 years, and they are proud parents of 4 adult children.

Christian Hubicki’s True Calling is in Education, Engineering, Growth, and Science

They were preparing to welcome their third child in 2025, but they sadly had a miscarriage that devastated them.

Rick Devans is a Public Figure and Multitasker

Rick Devans’ stint on season 38 was undeniably one for the books: he was quickly voted out early, but managed to remain in the game and battle his way back in before ultimately placing 4th. He had done so by utilizing key skills he had learned while pursuing a Bachelor’s degree in Advertising, Film, and Journalism at Virginia Tech, and by working at WGXA (FOX24/ABC16) for a decade. He subsequently evolved into a content creator and producer before evolving into the co-host of ‘On Fire: The Official Survivor Podcast’ for one season.

We should mention he is also passionate about movies, theater, hiking, water, and traveling.

Jonathan Young’s Priority Has Been His Fitness for Decades

If there’s only one word we can use to describe Jonathan Young in season 42, it would have to be athletic, considering how he dominated in every physical challenge before placing 4th. The Alabama native got involved in fitness at a young age, becoming a swimmer at the University of Alabama, a bodyguard, and a Guinness World Record holder for his strength. In 2021, he set a record by completing 15 chin-ups in one minute while wearing a 100-pound pack across his torso, and then set a record for weighted pull-ups in the same manner. So today, the Orange Beach resident continues to focus on his fitness while also operating his beach and surf rental business, dealing in boards, canopies, chairs, umbrellas, etc. It’s imperative to note that the 31-year-old even started dabbling in wrestling in 2024, with his most recent match being at Ring of Honor in 2025. It was after this that he worked with the non-profit organization Love Honduras to travel there and build houses for the less fortunate with his bare hands.

Having immigrated to Florida from Cuba with family at a rather young age and then becoming an entrepreneur at 23, the winner of season 45, Dee Valladares, is admittedly no stranger to hardship.

Q Burdette Plans to Secure Generational Wealth Through Hard Work

There was reportedly once a time when season 46 star Quintavius “Q” Burdette was such a devastating footballer and track athlete that he could have turned professional if he wanted to. However, he chose to graduate from the University of Mississippi (Ole Miss) with a Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration and a Master’s degree in Accounting in 2017 before starting his career. He served at a Big Four firm in Georgia for about 4 months before realizing it was not the right path for him, which led him to return to Mississippi and take a leap of faith in 2019 to become a real estate agent. The RE/MAX agent has since moved to Tennessee alongside his young family, where he works hard with the aim of retiring in his 30s with generational wealth, and led to over 1,100 homes sold and more than 50 properties rented as of writing.
