Sonette Myburgh (40)
Mortuary Assistant
The last-born of eight kids, animal lover Sonette wanted to be a veterinarian after obtaining two distinctions in Matric. Instead, she had to settle for a job as Mortuary Assistant.
She's been preparing the deceased for their final resting place for the last 23 years, but is adventurous in her spare time.
She plays women's rugby and has tried her luck on TV game show Noot Vir Noot, making it to the final round. She is also an amateur astrologist who knows almost everything about the Zodiac.
Sonette desperately wants to win Survivor, so that she can use the money to send her daughter to university – an opportunity that she was never afforded herself.
