Throughout its 25-year run, Survivor has seen hundreds of contestants get their torches snuffed, and only 45 people have become Sole Survivors. On May 21, the long-running CBS show will wrap up its 48th season. Season 50 — which fans have been voting on throughout the series' most recent run — will be the first since 2020 to feature returning players, meaning that another player could potentially join Sandra Diaz-Twine and Tony Vlachos' elite club of two-time winners. The series, hosted by Jeff Probst, follows contestants through a series of challenges, twists and the dreaded Tribal Council, where a group anonymously votes out one of their members at the end of every episode. Yet the best twist of the show happens when the remaining players reach the final Tribal Council and must earn winning votes from the jury a.k.a. the players that were most recently voted out of the game. Since its May 2000 premiere, Survivor has produced dozens of memorable winners — including "Boston" Rob Mariano, Parvati Shallow and Richard Hatch — many of whom have gone on to compete on other competition series, like The Traitors, The Challenge and Deal or No Deal Island. Here’s everything to know about every Survivor winner and where they are now. Richard Hatch Hatch became the first-ever Sole Survivor in August 2000, gaining recognition for forming the show’s first alliance. He returned to play Survivor for 2004’s All-Stars season and later appeared in shows like The Celebrity Apprentice and The Biggest Loser. Most recently, he starred in the second season of E!'s House of Villains, where he came in tenth place. In 2006, Hatch was convicted on two counts of attempted tax evasion and one count of signing a fraudulent tax return after failing to report his $1 million Survivor prize and other smaller sums. He served over four years in federal prison, then was sent back to prison for nine months after he failed to amend his previous tax returns, per Entertainment Weekly. In 2017, Hatch and his partner, Emiliano Cabral, split after 14 years of marriage, according to Extra. Tina Wesson Tina Wesson won Survivor season 2, The Australian Outback, in May 2001. Wesson went on to play again in 2013 with her daughter Katie Collins for the show’s first Blood vs. Water season. After Survivor, Wesson built a cabin in the woods of North Carolina, occasionally teaching survival classes. She remains married to her husband Dale. "Survivor was the greatest experience," she previously told PEOPLE. "It was never about the money. It was about the adventure." Ethan Zohn Ethan Zohn won season 3 Survivor: Africa in January 2002.
