Survivor Contestant Says She Knew She'd Been Dumped


Meanwhile, Debb Eaton, the first person to get the boot on Survivor II, has told Bryant Gumbel that she was voted off the show because she refused to participate in "X-rated" conversations that she regarded as "intrusive." She maintained that her ouster came as no surprise. "You know, what happened is I separated myself simply because of the conversations," she said. "I didn't fit in and then the last day, I thought that I was dead. I thought that everyone had already decided against me." She also defended her current romantic involvement with her stepson, saying that she never had a mother-son relationship with him.
