Australian Survivor is back for its second iteration of Brains v Brawn, and we can’t wait to see who can outwit, outplay, and outlast their competitors.

One of the competitors for the Brains vs Brawn II season is Candy Rule. She hails from country WA where she lived on farms and wineries. While she may look unsuspecting, she packs a punch!

This is everything you need to know about Candy on Australian Survivor 2025.

Australian’s Survivor Candy is a model

WA-born Candy moved to Sydney to pursue her career as a model, where she has worked for many major brands. Some of these brands include Adidas, Universal, Glue Store and Perth-based Poppy Lissiman.

With her model experience, she told 10Play that it would give her a leg up in the competition.

“As a model you must put up with a lot of stuff or else you won’t get hired again. You can be mentally and physically tired, getting accidentally pinned by a tailor or someone burns you with a curling wand, you just get on with it. And that’s what I’ll do on Survivor,” she told the network.

Candy is a Survivor superfan

Not only can Candy outlast a long day on set as a model, but she can outplay every other Survivor-themed birthday party.

According to 10Play, she has been a fan of the series for a long time and had a Survivor-themed eighth birthday party.

The birthday party even included DIY challenges. Fun!

She never gives up

Candy has faced many hardships growing up, she confessed that when she was a young girl she had a learning disability.

“I grew up dyslexic. I wanted to prove to myself that it wouldn’t hold me back, so I got a literature degree. It was a very expensive attempt to prove it to myself haha.”

We think all of these attributes will make her a threat to her competitors on Australian Survivor, Brains v Brawn II.

Good luck Candy!

Australian Survivor 2025, Brains v Brawn II will air on February 17 at 7.30pm on Channel 10 and 10 Play.
