Their relationship survived the game and continued for years, but the reality-TV couple eventually separated.
Split after Blood vs. Water; exact date unconfirmed. They met through reality-television circles and were dating before competing together on Survivor: Blood vs. Water.
Kat Edorsson and Hayden Moss were already dating when they joined Survivor: Blood vs. Water in 2013. Kat’s fear that Hayden might leave her after an early elimination became part of the season, but both said afterward that the game had not ended their relationship. In an October 2013 interview, Kat called Hayden her best friend and described the practical challenge of living in different states; Hayden still called her his girlfriend that December. The relationship later ended without a detailed joint public announcement. In her 2021 Entertainment Weekly questionnaire, Kat referred to Hayden as her “then-boyfriend” and described a different long-term partner, independently confirming the split. Reliable first-person sources do not establish a precise breakup date or cause, so this record does not invent either one.
Kat and Hayden entered the season as a dating couple and played on opposing starting tribes.
After her elimination, Kat said the relationship had survived and discussed hopes of closing the long-distance gap.
In his post-season interview, Hayden continued to describe Kat as his girlfriend.
Kat referred to Hayden as her then-boyfriend and discussed her later relationship in an Entertainment Weekly questionnaire.
