Survivor couple Sierra and Joe’s relationship explored

Joe Anglim and Sierra Dawn Thomas met during their stint on Survivor: Worlds Apart, and there was an immediate attraction between them. Although the two were from different tribes, viewers could see something was brewing between them.

However, game-wise, the couple were on the opposite sides of the competition. Joe and Sierra were in competing alliances and never voted together throughout the competition. Joe even voted his wife out of the game. It was only after they wrapped filming that sparks flew.

After Survivor: Worlds Apart season ended, the duo became close friends. Time passed, and their friendship turned into a romantic connection. In April 2019, nearly five years after they were together, Joe asked Sierra to marry him during sunset while on a road trip from Arizona to Utah.

The couple married in November 2019 at The Hideaway on Angel, a wedding venue in Layton, Utah. Following their wedding, Sierra took to Instagram to share her feelings and said:

More on Sierra and Joe’s appearance in the Survivor franchise

Sierra Dawn Thomas is a former contestant from Survivor: Worlds Apart and Survivor: Game Changers. During her stint on the former, she found herself at the bottom of the Escameca tribe after she was blindsided by her ally Lindsey Cascaddan. She, however, didn’t take the opportunity to take out the threats and stuck with her alliance, leading to her elimination.

On Survivor: Game Changers, Sierra played a more dominant role after the merge and helped with the elimination of several contestants, including Hali Ford and Ozzy Lusth. However, she was blindsided by fellow cast member Sarah Lacina’s use of Legacy Advantage, which led to the former’s elimination.

Anglim appeared on Survivor: Worlds Apart, Survivor: Cambodia, and Survivor: Edge of Extinction. He found himself in a good position during the early stages of Worlds Apart due to his alliance with Hali Ford and Jenn Brown. After the merge, he became a target of the Escameca Alliance. He was, however, seen as a significant threat and was eliminated from the competition.

In Survivor: Cambodia, he performed well as his tribe won every Immunity challenge. After the merge, he dominated in challenges, which made him a threat. For the same reason, he was eliminated.

Again, his tribe’s success in the Immunity challenges helped Anglim breeze through the pre-merge season. However, he was voted out for being the most significant physical threat after failing to win the first individual Immunity Challenge. He competed against Sole Survivor Chris Underwood at the final Edge of Extinction re-entry duel but could not prevail against his competitor.

Joe and Sierra have been memorable contestants of Survivor and proud parents to their first child, daughter Della. They have now taken up parenting duties for their second child.
