He will be joined by his wife, Laura, in what should make for a dramatic twist for the show.
Others who will be returning include Tyson Apostol, who is known for competing in Tocantins and Heroes Vs. Villains, and he will be competing against his girlfriend Rachel Foulger.
Gervase Peterson, who featured on Survivor: Borneo, will compete with his niece Marissa.
Kat Edorsson, who appeared on Survivor: One World, will be competing with her boyfriend, Hayden Moss – who interestingly was the Big Brother winner in Season 12.
In the latest series, contestants will be voted off Redemption Island, but anyone being dispatched will have the chance to return, but only if their loved one opts to sacrifice themselves in their place.
