Is Rachel Reilly joining the cast of Survivor?
The Big Brother 13 winner shared with followers via Instagram Stories on Wednesday, Oct. 1 that she’s currently working on her application. Reilly was most recently on Big Brother 27, which wrapped Sunday, Sept. 28.
On her Instagram Story, Reilly reshared a video of Survivor host Jeff Probst encouraging her to apply while being interviewed on the Emmys red carpet. She then tagged a Survivor casting director and wrote, “Working on that [audition] tape this week!”

Reilly may know what it takes to get on the series, given her lengthy reality television career and her work as a casting agent for various unscripted shows.
If given a spot, Reilly would become the first person to complete the CBS “Reality Trifecta” — Big Brother, The Amazing Race, and Survivor. So far, she’s competed on three seasons of Big Brother and three seasons on The Amazing Race. The only one left? Survivor.
While being interviewed by Entertainment Tonight on the Emmy Awards red carpet on Sunday, Sept. 14, Probst was told about Reilly’s interest in going on the show and becoming the first person to complete the trifecta.
“Well, first she’s got to apply,” the longtime Survivor host said. “I mean, come on, she’s got to want it bad enough to send in a little two minute video and say, ‘Here’s why I should be on.'”
“There’s no secret passageway to getting on Survivor,” he continued. “I think she’s got a shot.”
The push for Reilly to star on Survivor came after she was shockingly eliminated from Big Brother in September due to the “White Locust” twist. Fans and former houseguests found the twist to be unfair as it sent the Big Brother legend home without an eviction vote.
Nevertheless, Reilly became the first member of the Big Brother 27 jury, ultimately voting for ally Ashley Hollis to win the game.
