“We’ve never cast anybody because they were single and might mingle.”

Nor are we nodding to drama of theVenus Vafa variety.No, were talking about actual love!

The lack of will-they-or-wont-they this season is not a huge surprise, of course.
Would you want to court someone when you have not showered or brushed your teeth in weeks?
Plus, as host and showrunnerJeff ProbsttellsEntertainment Weekly, it is not something the show tries to orchestrate.
You never anticipate that happening, Probst tells EW.
It has to come straight from the source.
We tend to let them bring it up.
Which is what makes a showmance such a tricky thing in game for a million dollars.
When it happens onSurvivor, romance is kind of interesting, Probst notes.
And Dee and Austin both made it to the final three ofSurvivor 45while courting each other along the way.
That hasnt been an issue for the final five ofSurvivor 46.
Heres hoping love blooms again onSurvivor 47.
