We guess if you’re dating a Taskmaster winner, multitasking comes easy. In a terse end-of-year Instagram post, Survivor winner Parvati Shallow not only came out as queer, but also hard-launched a relationship with comedian Mae Martin. “We’re here. We’re queer. Happy new year ❤️🌈🏳️‍⚧,” Shallow captioned snapshots of her kissing and generally looking endearing with Martin in a photo booth. This confirms what some fans already suspected: The Survivor and Taskmaster stars are virtual dating. It’s a momentous day for the Survivor franchise all around: Erika Casupanan, a fellow former winner, also decided to set the record not-so-straight before the Modern Year, sharing in an Instagram Reel that she “realized I’m a lesbian” this year. (“I HAD A GAY ALLIANCE?! 😉 💅🏽 💜,” fellow contestant Ricard Foyé commented.) Basically, it’s a big day for sapphics who love Survivor.

I’m going to do some internet research on this, but I would say you know who you are—your authentic compass, your intuition. Alarm bells are going off
