Survivor winner Parvati Shallow has come out as queer in an Instagram post shared on Saturday, December 30. The reality TV legend shared pictures of herself kissing comedian Mae Martin, thus hard-launching their relationship to the public.

Shallow wrote in the caption: “We’re here. We’re queer. Happy new year.”

Besides winning Survivor Micronesia – Fans vs. Favorites, Shallow also competed on Survivor: Cook Islands, Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains, Survivor: Cagayan, and Survivor: Winners at War. She is currently set to star in the second season of The Traitors on Peacock.

Between 2017 and 2021, Shallow was married to fellow Survivor alum John Fincher, with whom she has a daughter.

Nonbinary writer, actor, and comedian Martin is best known for the Netflix series Feel Good, for which they won a BAFTA in 2021. Martin is currently one of the cohosts of the Handsome podcast alongside Tig Notaro and Fortune Feimster.

Congratulations to the new couple!
