After two decades and 43 seasons, who are the 19 “Survivor” castaways with the most days played on the island? Obviously, frequent returnees “Queen” Sandra Diaz-Twine, “Boston” Rob Mariano and Parvati Shallow all make the list, but some of the other record-holders may surprise you. Note that the last season to feature former contestants back to compete again was “Winners at War” (Season 40), which reintroduced 20 of the most memorable champions of all time. Tour our photos above (or click here for direct access) that detail all of the CBS reality TV show’s longest-running cast members.

Sandra, a two-time “Survivor” winner, clocks in at a total of 110 days after competing on four seasons. She won “Pearl Islands” (39 days) and “Heroes vs. Villains” (39 days), and also took part in “Game Changers” (16 days) and “Winners at War” (16 days; it would have been longer but she raised the white mast when she got to the Edge of Extinction). Also, we’re not counting the time she spent on “Island of the Idols,” as she merely served as a mentor to the new contestants. Likewise, Rob’s time on “Island of the Idols” doesn’t count toward his total days played, which comes to a whopping 152 after five seasons. The Red Sox fanatic claimed victory in “Redemption Island” (39 days), but he also took part in “Marquesas” (21 days), “All-Stars” (39 days), “Heroes vs. Villains” (18 days) and “Winners at War” (35 days). Fun fact: Rob’s wife Amber Brkich Mariano, who he met on “All-Stars,” also makes our list with a total of 107 days. Parvati comes in just behind Rob with 149 total days. She prevailed on “Micronesia: Fans vs. Favorites” (39 days), and also competed on the following three installment: “Cook Islands” (36 days), “Heroes vs. Villains” (39 days) and “Winners at War” (35 days). Just like Rob and Amber, Parvati’s time on “Winners at War” consisted of some days on the main island and some days at the Edge of Extinction. Six other winners make the list of most days played: Tyson Apostol (“Blood vs. Water”), Jeremy Collins (“Cambodia”), Sarah Lacina (“Game Changers”), Ethan Zohn (“Africa”), Tony Vlachos (“Cagayan” and “Winners at War”) and Tina Wesson (“The Australian Outback”). The rest of the record-holders are fan-favorites who frequently returned to the show, but were never able to secure victory. In the new era of “Survivor” that began in 2021 after the Covid-19 pandemic, there have yet to be any returning players featured. Instead, “Survivor 41,” “Survivor 42” and “Survivor 43” have branded themselves as casting diverse players from all backgrounds and walks of life. Time will tell if there will ever be another “All Stars” version of the game.

Is Ethan and Jenna still together?

Ethan Zohn and Jenna Morasca "We will carry with us the memories of a relationship grounded in love, laughter, support and friendship." "We have experienced some of life's greatest joys and toughest challenges together, and our decision to be apart can never diminish that.

These two Survivor winners met during the finale of Survivor: The Amazon. They started dating in 2003 and were together for 10 years, even appearing on The Amazing Race. "It is with much consideration and a heavy heart that we are announcing that after 10 years of a loving relationship, the decision was made to move on without each other," a rep for the couple told E! News in 2013. "We will carry with us the memories of a relationship grounded in love, laughter, support and friendship." "We have experienced some of life's greatest joys and toughest challenges together, and our decision to be apart can never diminish that. We want to thank everyone for their support and we ask that our privacy be respected as we move forward." Ethan is now married and is one of the 20 winners back for season 40.
