Devens — who competed on “Survivor 38” and “Survivor 50” — won the $750,000 grand prize against Taylor Brown by receiving six out of the seven possible votes from the jury members.
asserted
who → compete → members
That means Brown is our runner-up this season, taking home the $75,000 consolation prize.
asserted
Brown → mean → prize
Devens received votes to win from Angela Murray, Barrett Pfeiffer, Yash Patel, Melody Morris, Dee Valladares and Drew Campbell.
asserted
Devens → receive → Murray
Devens also took home the $50,000 by winning America’s Favorite Player and and additional $10,000 for unleashing the Pharaoh’s Curse, bringing his total winnings to $810,000 this season.
asserted
Devens → take → 810,000
The finale showdown took place after Devens beat Brown in the third part of the final Head of Household competition.
asserted
Devens → take → competition
As the final HOH, Devens opted to take Brown to the final two, therefore making Campbell the final member of the jury.
asserted
Campbell → opt → jury
Devens’ decision to take Brown over Campbell to the end was a shocker for fans, as the two had been extremely close all season long and often referred to each other as “father” and “son.”
asserted
two → take → father
Prior to the final eviction, host Julie Chen Moonves told viewers that Brown had made a strong pitch for Devens to take her to the end — and she was clearly successful.

Devens, Valladares and Murray (who competed on “Big Brother 26”) were brought on this season as reality TV “Icons” alongside a cast of newbie players.

Throughout the season, several Houseguests told Page Six they felt the most betrayed by Campbell — including pre-jury evictee Mallory Aurichio and Patel.
asserted
most → tell → Aurichio
“I’m surprised about a lot of the stuff that Drew has done,” Aurichio told us.
“I always knew he was tight with the ‘Icons’ and I knew he talked too much, but I had been kind of assuming he had my best interests and he didn’t,” she said, also calling him out for playing both sides of the house and “running information back” to the “Icons.”
asserted
she → ’m → Icons
Patel had harsh words for Campbell as well, telling Page Six, “In terms of the game, you best believe I have hard feelings towards him.”
asserted
I → have → him
However, he isn’t holding a grudge outside the game.
asserted
he → hold → game
“Everything that happened in that house stays in that that house,” Patel said.
asserted
Patel → happen → house
So I’m not gonna bring that into the real world.”
asserted
I → go → world
“I love Drew and I think he’s awesome,” she told us.
asserted
she → love → us
“I wanna continue to be his friend, but there is a lot of traits that Drew has that I would never want to date.”
asserted
I → continue → that
“As much as my heart wants to stay loyal to Devens, he could absolutely beat me,” she said after her eviction, doubling down that she “would never want to bring” him to the end.
“I also feel like he would have done that, because we need each other for jury votes,” Valladares continued.
uncertain
Valladares → want → votes
“So I would have stayed loyal to him up until the final two, because I need his vote, just like he needs my vote.”
asserted
he → stay → vote
“I feel like if Dee and Devens can outwit, outplay, outlast these people, and if they can win competitions and use their powers at the right time, I’m hoping that for future seasons if we do see another ‘Survivor’ player or if we see any more returnees, that we have more of an outright battle from the beginning,” she told us.
asserted
she → feel → us
Reilly added, “So I think the fact that they’re able to outplay these people so easily…

I give them props.

You have to give it to the gamer.”
