There’s been a new addition.

The Australian Survivor winners group consists of a handful of castaways who have managed to outwit, outlast, and outplay their fellow campmates.

Australian Survivor first aired for a single season in 2002 on Channel 9, and it was followed by a celebrity edition in 2006. However, neither season attracted many viewers, so the franchise was put on hold until it was revived by Channel 10 in 2016 — the network where the series still airs.

With Australian Survivor 2025 done and dusted, a new name has been added to the Hall of Fame.

So, on that note, we decided to have a look at where the past winners of Australian Survivor are now.

In 2022, Pia competed on The Masked Singer Australia, and in 2023, she took part in Dancing With The Stars Australia.

Since then, Pia has released a memoir titled Finding My Bella Vita, which detailed how her role in Looking for Alibrandi changed her life.

David Genat wasn’t afraid to ruffle some feathers during his appearance on Champions V Contenders. However, it was his stint on All Stars that earned him the title of Sole Survivor.

After winning Australian Survivor 2020, David competed on Australian Celebrity Apprentice in 2021. In 2022, he launched a podcast alongside his Survivor costar Luke, titled Who Authorised This?

David returned to his reality TV roots in 2022, hosting Rush Australia.

In 2025, David joined Deal or No Deal Island Season 2, and walked away the winner, scoring a record-breaking $5.8 million deal in the finale (approximately $9.2 million AUD) — the biggest prize in network TV history.

But, despite his huge prize win, David hasn’t retired from reality TV just yet. He’s scheduled to appear on Survivor: Australia v The World alongside his Deal or No Deal Island co-star Parvati Shallow. The new Survivor season is rumoured to be premiering on June 22, 2025.

Feras Basal engaged in a rivals-become-allies alliance with Kirby Bentley during Australian Survivor 2024. However, he eventually turned against her, which led to his elimination and paved the way for his win.

Since winning the show, Feras has spent his time travelling around Europe and focusing on his TikTok account @laughwithferas, as well as his new podcast Yaz and Feras. He also works as a teacher.

Myles Kuah

Myles Kuah was crowned the winner of Australian Survivor 2025 after an exciting finale against runner-up Kaelan Lockhart and AJ Antonios, who came in third.

In a post-win interview with Chattr, Myles said being the Sole Survivor felt like a dream.

“It still feels surreal the next day, like today, honestly, like I still can’t believe it,” he said.

“For me, to get that far — when I was almost voted out on day four, and then almost voted out 1000 other times after that — was just incredible,” he laughed. “It was incredible to win, and not only win but win in the way that I did — playing the game that I did — is just unbelievable.”

Up next is Survivor: Australia v The World, and All Stars winner David is among the cast.
