Sophie Cachia's savage swipe at Australian Survivor

"It’s scary to me how easily people were able to lie and manipulate you.” - by Erin Christie
  • 08 Feb 2022

Influencer and current castaway on Australian Survivor: Blood V Water, Sophie Cachia, has taken to Instagram to share issues she has with the show.

After a huge blindside on Sunday night, Sophie has commented on how shocking the game can be once players realise how easily trust and loyalty are forgotten.

Taking to her Stories, Sophie shared that she was opting to work instead of watch Monday night’s episode, saying it was giving her too much anxiety.

“The lies created to save their own asses turned really personal and I wasn’t having a part of it. It hurt me and a lot of others,” she wrote, referring to Sunday night’s blindside, which saw her booted from the Blood Tribe and sent to join Water instead.

“I am a competitor but I also don’t agree with how emotionally or sneakily the competition is. It’s scary to me how easily people were able to lie and manipulate you,” she also reflected to Confidential in the wake of the blindside.

While Sophie was voted out, she was sent to join the other tribe rather than leave the game.

“It was f***ing horrible and they know exactly what I’m talking about. 'It’s a game' is one thing – and I always credit good game play,” she continued on social media.

“But what one person did was beyond what I could deal with and am still clearly affected today. That type of s*** isn’t for me.”

Sophie was blindsided during Sunday night’s episode in a move orchestrated by Sandra Diaz-Twine, two-time American Survivor winner and current Blood V Water contestant.

However, the move caused another Survivor favourite, Samantha Gash, to turn on Sophie and vote her out, a move that seems to be at the centre of Sophie’s feelings of betrayal.

“I’m also really disappointed in production again,” she wrote about a scene where she and Sophie were matched in a physical challenge, and she allegedly asked Sam to keep the members of her alliance safe.

“Everyone could see us talking the whole time, we made a set deal on that podium.

“I told her she could win and get the victory in front of both tribes, but in return, my boys would be safe, and they wouldn’t be picked off. I put my trust in her again. And I swear on my children’s f***ing lives of that and hold my head high for that decision.”

Sophie went on to mark last night’s tribal council as the point she started to question if “mentally I was ok to be here”.

While Sophie is a confessed Survivor super-fan, it’s her first time playing the game, while Sam is returning after a brief stint on season two.

She’s playing with her husband, Mark Wales, whom she met and fell in love with on the second season.

Familiarity with the game has proven to be an advantage for Sam, especially when participating in blindsides in order to move the game forward in the way she wants it to.

You can watch Survivor on 10 from Sunday-Tuesday at 7:30pm.
