Season 50 of “Survivor” is coming to an end this month, with new advantages, old rivalries and tear-filled challenges wrapping up in the season finale on May 20.

The milestone 50th season “In the Hands of the Fans” features returning all-star players and fan favorites, including three players from New England. Now, with only a few weeks of competition remaining, only one New England contestant remains – Aubry Bracco of Hampton Falls, New Hampshire.

Here’s a recap of who is left on “Survivor” Season 50 after the May 6 episode, as well as how to see if the Seacoast mom has what it takes to be the sole survivor.

Who went home on ‘Survivor’ this week?

During episode 11, the remaining contestants were split into two tribal councils – one with Tiffany Ervin, Emily Flippen, Cirie Fields and Rick Devens, and the other with Joe Hunter, Ozzy Lusth, Rizo Velovic and Bracco. Jonathan Young, who won the challenge of balancing on a platform in the water, was allowed to vote in both tribal councils.

In the first group, Flippen was sent home after Devens used his Mr. Beast immunity to save himself. The other tribe originally tried to cast off Bracco, but she convinced them at the last minute to vote off Lusth instead, revealing to the group Lusth’s plan to go to the end with Fields.

Who is left on ‘Survivor’ Season 50?

After last night’s double elimination, seven contestants remain on Season 50 of “Survivor”:

  • Aubry Bracco (Hampton Falls, NH) – Seasons 32, 34 and 38
  • Rick Devens (Macon, GA) – Season 38

  • Joseph “Joe” Hunter (West Sacramento, CA) – Season 48
  • Rizo Velovic (Yonkers, NY) – Season 49

Who is Aubry Bracco?

Aubry Bracco of Hampton Falls, New Hampshire is currently competing on “Survivor” for the fourth time after appearances in Seasons 32, 34 and 38, finishing second, fifth and fifteenth, respectively.

Bracco is now married and raising a son in her home state of New Hampshire, and her cast bio says she planned to use the fact that she is a new mom to try to avoid others labeling her a target.

This season, Bracco also said she will be “focusing on players as individuals, making 1:1 connections, and positioning myself as a level-headed friend and co-conspirator in a lineup of threats,” according to her cast bio. “No matter what I face I know I have the fire to overcome and have nothing to lose because I already have it all at home,” she added.
