Survivor 48: Kyle Fraser wins the final - Here's how the jury voted
Kyle Fraser was crowned the winner of Survivor 48, securing the title of Sole Survivor and the $1 million grand prize in the season finale aired on Wednesday. The three-hour finale saw Kyle outmaneuver finalists Joe Hunter and Eva Erickson, earning the majority of the jury's votes through his strategic gameplay, immunity win, and social finesse.
The Survivor 48 finale began with five players: Kyle Fraser, Joe Hunter, Eva Erickson, Kamilla Karthigesu, and Mitch Guerra, following Shauhin Davari's elimination. Kamilla won the first immunity challenge, a puzzle-based obstacle course, and chose Eva for the sanctuary reward, strengthening their alliance.
At Tribal Council, Mitch was voted out, leaving four players. In the final immunity challenge, Kyle clinched victory, securing a spot in the final three and the power to assign immunity. He chose Joe, forcing Kamilla and Eva into the fire-making challenge, where Eva prevailed.
The final three—Kyle, Joe, and Eva—faced an eight-person jury: Cedrek McFadden, Chrissy Sarnowsky, David Kinne, Star Toomey, Mary Zheng, Shauhin Davari, Mitch Guerra, and Kamilla Karthigesu, per GoldDerby.
Kyle's victory came from his balanced gameplay, highlighted by a hidden idol play (negating three votes), an extra vote advantage, and a secret alliance with Kamilla that orchestrated key blindsided.
At the Final Tribal Council, Kyle articulated his strategic control and social bonds, outshining Joe's challenge-heavy resume and Eva's emotional narrative tied to her autism journey.
The jury vote resulted in a 5-2-1 split: Kyle received five votes (from Kamilla, Shauhin, David, Star, and Cedrek), Eva earned two (from Mary and Mitch), and Joe secured one (from Chrissy).
The prize money remains standard: $1 million for the Sole Survivor, $100,000 for the runner-up (Eva), and $85,000 for third place (Joe). Jury members received a $10,000 reunion show bonus, while early eliminees earned as little as $3,500, per EntertainmentNow.

But there is another angle sometimes not noticed. Lauren Kyle, the better half of Edmonton Oilers captain Connor McDavid, revealed something rather personal recently. Kyle told what it's actually like to be next to one of hockey's most well-known players, just as the team is fighting very hard in the Stanley Cup Finals. Lauren Kyle opens up about the untold emotional toll of being with Connor McDavid during the Stanley Cup Finals Lauren Kyle opened up honestly in an interview on June 17, 2025, to give an inside view into her life the emotional ups and lows of dating Edmonton Oilers star Connor McDavid. Kyle observed that even if viewers can see the shine on the ice, life at home is not always as glamorous as some may imagine. "It's difficult for people to realize what it's like unless they've lived it," Kyle remarked, further explaining how the demands of being under public view, frequent travel, and tight timetables complicate matters behind stage. Basic events like a dinner can change to become uncommon during the season. She also discussed how crucial the backing of other Oilers wives and girlfriends has been. These women develop a link based on shared experiences as they stand together via successes and failures. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Our one of a kind Patented Cold Water Extraction Process Superior Ginseng Undo "We all go through the same things, and it helps to know we're not alone," Kyle remarked.

The viewing party will take place at Bar Trove, Kyle's newly opened lounge in Edmonton. The game will be shown on a large wall projector at the bar. The gathering isn't just about hockey, it's about standing together. Kyle said, 'We'll all be there supporting each other, just like we support our partners.' She opened Bar Trove not just for fans, but also as a welcoming space where families can feel comfortable during high-pressure times like the playoffs. The Oilers are now behind 3–2 in the series; hence, their next game is rather important. While McDavid and his team concentrate on the ice, the strength and love from people like Lauren Kyle gently drive them off the surface reminding everyone that behind every great athlete lies a formidable team at home as well.
