The Survivor 47 winner was revealed on Wednesday night.
Fans had been waiting for 14 weeks to learn who won Survivor 47.
Rachel LaMont, Sam Phalen, Sue Smey, and Teeny Chirichillo made the Survivor 2024 final four.
Rachel seemed to be the favorite to win, but would she make it to the final three?
The two-hour episode on December 18 featured the players getting to a final three, the jury selecting its winner, and a party to celebrate the season.
All that work from the 26-day grueling season came down to an eight-member jury and someone walked away with a $1 million prize.

Sam beat Teeny in the Fire-Making Showdown.
Rachel, Sue, and Sam had to face the eight-person jury.
Who is the Survivor 47 winner?
Rachel LaMont won Survivor 47. The vote was more one-sided than the editing seemed to indicate.
The final vote was 7-1, with Rachel in first and Sam in second place. Sue finished third.
Kyle was the player who voted for Sam.
Rachel left Fiji with the $1 million prize and a spot among the game’s best players.
Survivor fans react to the season finale
Many fans shared thoughts about the new episode and who should win Survivor 47.
“Rachel has been an amazing player and entered the record books. But I truly believe Sam has played a better overall game. He has done more with less. Struggled on the bottom for weeks, with no advantages or immunity wins. He’d get my jury vote,” wrote one Survivor fan.
“It’s wild that the editing is painting this as Sam versus Rachel when Sue has so much credit to her game. But the jury is already in favor of him. Kyle most of the times you won she was your competition,” posted another Survivor fan.
Another fan loved seeing Rachel make it to the end.
