Who won Survivor 45?
The finale was filled with a plethora of exciting twists and dramatic blindsides. The final five participated in a string of reward and immunity tasks to secure a spot in the running to become the sole survivor of the show.
However, the eventual winner was decided with a vote-out process of the tribal council. Notably, the jury members of the tribal council were none other than the eliminated contestants of the reality television series.
In the first task, contestant Jake managed to bag an immunity. Julie Allie was the first among the final five to be evicted in the voting process. Contestant Dee won the final immunity of the season before Jake and Katurah competed in a knock-out fire-making task. Austin, Dee, and Jake emerged as the final three of Survivor 45.
The trio addressed the tribal council consisting of eliminated contestants explaining why each one should get their vote. Jake talked about being labeled an underdog throughout the season yet surviving until the end. Meanwhile, Austin and Dee detailed why they should win the grand prize. A final vote by the jury led Dee Valladares to become the season's champion. She was awarded a massive $1 million cash prize.
Who is Dee Valladares?
The 26-year-old entrepreneur was born in Cuba but moved to Florida, Miami when she was young. She pursued her education at the Florida International University and earned her degree of Bachelor of Arts in Psychology in 2018.
