Survivor is finally back and after a quick hiatus, another band of castaways is ready to take the mantle of Sole Survivor. So here’s who was voted off Survivor 46 this week, and who’s still remaining in the show.
The reality TV show stems from the Swedish television series, Expedition Robinson, which Charlie Parsons created in 1997. However, the American version of Survivor aired for the first time on May 31, 2000. Jeff Probst has hosted every season of Survivor and is also an executive producer alongside Mark Burnett and Parsons. The rest of the television franchise includes Australian Survivor, Survivor South Africa, and Survivor New Zealand.
The long-standing reality TV series follows tribes of contestants that live on remote islands, compete in challenges, and vote each other off of the show. Their ultimate goal is to outwit, outplay, and outlast each other so that they can be the last person standing. The winner receives a check for $1,000,000 and the title of “Sole Survivor.”
Between living on a desert island, forming alliances, breaking alliances, doing physical and mental challenges, dealing with harsh weather, and enduring a full 26 days (previously 39 days) of complete isolation, you won’t want to miss all of the action. This is especially true since this season features 18 brand new contestants.
So who got voted off Survivor 46? Read on for this season’s elimination order.
Eliminated: Venus Vafa
Occupation: Data analyst
Tribe: Nami
Venus was eliminated near-unanimously after a difficult Tribal Council. She was blindsided by her tribe after deciding not to use her idol because she was confident Q would be voted out. However, Charlie Davis, the swing vote, was reminded of Venus’ unpredictable nature by her coy attitude earlier in the episode.
Eliminated: Tiffany Nicole Ervin
Occupation: Artist
Status: Eliminated
Tribe: Nami Tribe + Merged NuiNui

Eliminated: Hunter McKnight
Occupation: Science teacher
Tribe: Nami Tribe + Merged NuiNui Tribe
After hiding the fact that he found a hidden idol and telling everyone that he had one last minute, it made Hunter a target right before the Tribal Council. Hunter was visibly hesitant to play his idol knowing that everyone knew that he had one at that point. The group was split between choosing him, Q, or Tiffany, but it ended up being a split vote between Q and Hunter (with one vote going to Ben). After a revote, Hunter was sent home without playing his idol.
