Kyle Fraser was crowned the sole survivor during the season 48 finale of Survivor, and audiences were curious to learn all about the winner’s personal life, career and more.
Below, News47.us has compiled five facts about Kyle in case you didn’t know while watching him compete on the CBS reality TV series.
Currently, Kyle is 31 years old.
Kyle works as a litigator but was a teacher in the past, which helped his approach on Survivor. During a February 2025 interview with Parade, Kyle reflected on working at a juvenile detention center.
“It was a charter school attached to a juvenile detention center, and they were able to earn credits in money, so when they get released, they would have something to go out into the world. And that was a really hard experience,” Kyle explained to the outlet. “Learning when you’re in a juvenile detention center, I couldn’t imagine. Learning was hard enough for me as a kid in school.”
Kyle elaborated that “trying to connect with [the students] when they’re trying to figure out, ‘When the hell am I gonna get out of jail?’ was really hard. But I figured out a way to do it in different circumstances. …. Some days were really, really hard and painful to see what they’re going through, painful to sort of try and connect with them. But you’ve got to keep on pushing. And I feel like I kind of have to have that same mentality in Survivor.”
