David Genat, a 44 year-old from Perth, Australia, began a successful modeling career in 2002 on a bet, but it was his love for competition that brought him to reality TV. After his friend Sarah Tilleke competed on Australian Survivor in 2017, she encouraged him to audition. Genat joined Australian Survivor: Champions v Contenders in 2019, reaching Day 34 and serving as the second juror. He returned in 2020 for Australian Survivor: All Stars, where he dominated the game and claimed the title of Sole Survivor, along with the $500,000 AUD prize. Now, he’s ready to test his strategy and luck on Deal or No Deal Island: Season 2.
