Another ‘Australian Survivor’ Baby Is On The Way
There’s another Australian Survivor baby on the way!
Yep, two-time player and winner of Australian Survivor: Brains V Brawn Hayley Leake is starting her own tribe with husband Jimmy Meegan. The couple tied the knot in April, after delaying their wedding so she could compete on Australian Survivor: Heroes V Villains in Samoa.
If you need a quick refresher about Hayley’s latest stint on Survivor, here’s what happened. Queen Hayley played a skilful game, first appearing on the Hero tribe alongside Shaun Hampson and Nina Twine.
Her sneaky alliance with King George from the Villain tribe was a strategic move, and it helped her stay alive for an epic 39 days. Sadly, that alliance also shot her in the foot, and she left after one of George’s famous blindsides.
After her reality TV adventure wrapped up, the physiotherapist hasn’t stopped to take a break. She finally had her wedding in Adelaide, jetted off to Tassie for a honeymoon, and completed her PhD. (Tbh, I’m exhausted just writing that sentence.)

And now, she’s announced that a new addition to her lil fam is well on its way. In a sweet post on Instagram, Hayley shared a photo of herself and Jimmy holding up pregnancy books while looking just slightly concerned.
“Not sure if we are gonna find the answers for this next adventure in a book, but we are gonna try!” she said “The tribe is expanding. Baby girl due Christmas Day 2023!”

It looks like the fellow Survivor players she blindsided don’t hold any grudges, with many sending their love on social media.
“YASSSSSSSSSSSSS CONGRATSSSSS,” George Mladenov wrote, while Felicity Palmateer said, “This is the BEST news!!!! Congratulations you two! So happy for you both. Big love from Aunty Flicky.”
“Ahhhh that kid’s got the best parents ahead of them! Congratulations, you two. GRINNING over this,” added Benjamin Law.
“Omg YESSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!! Best news ever. So happy for you both and that lucky lucky child,” wrote two-time player Nick Iadanza.
While it’s sad that Hayley won’t be appearing in the next Australian Survivor season, we can’t wait to follow her family’s big adventure.
