It's the end of the line forCirie Fields. TheSurvivorlegend appears to be walking away from the game after her fifth appearance on the hit show. CBS viewers will see Cirie onSurvivor 50next spring, but she has called this season her "swan song" in Fiji. It's understandable. She has played these reality competition shows for years.
Survivorfans first met Cirie during Season 12 in Panama.Exile Islandrevealed Cirie's unique strategic side of the game. It led to her being invited back forSurvivor 16: Fans vs. Favorites, and later forSurvivor 20: Heroes vs. VillainsandSurvivor 34: Game Changers.
Survivor 50wrappedalready, and shortly after filming, Cirie had some glowing comments about the new season.
"Best season ever,"Cirie calledSurvivor 50."Best. Not just because I was there. Best. Season. Ever."
That's high praise from aSurvivorlegend, but fans have to wait until early 2026 to see for themselves. So what makes it the best season? We are left to guess about that until a few months after theSurvivor 49season finale.
Cirie Fields is 'tired' after Survivor 50
"I'm tired," Cirie answered when she was asked about keeping the door open for futureSurvivorappearances.
"I'll go and do a guest spot if they want me to come and teach some of these young’uns how to play," she revealedto Entertainment Weekly.
Cirie also joked about possibly becoming aSurvivorcoach or a set nurse if hostJeff Probstneeds it. But when it comes to being a player, it sounds like she is ready to call it a day after 20 years on the show.
"Somebody told me, never say never. So I never say never. But I feel like 50 was my swan song," theSurvivorlegend elaborated.
Prior toSurvivor 50,Ciries ranks No. 4 on the list ofSurvivorplayers who have played the most days in the game. While she can't catchBoston Robor Parvati Shallow, who rank No. 1 and No. 2, she could overtake Ozzy Lusth if she lasts seven days longer than him onSurvivor 50.
Though she appears to be done withSurvivor,Cirie isn't retiring from reality TV. She still has some goals for what might come next in life. Cirie mentioned thatDeal or No Deal Island"is looking attractive," and that she would enjoy doingExtractedwith her family.
