Tabitha Sloane was a contestant on the Netflix reality survival game show Surviving Paradise. They were one of twelve players in the first season of the show who were trying to make it to the end of the process and win the grand prize of two hundred thousand dollars. Players on the show initially believed that they would be competing against each other in the comfort of a luxury sun-drenched villa in Greece. However, the rug was pulled quite sharply from underneath their beautifully coiffured feet, and half got evicted, forced to live in a camp in the wilderness beneath the house, and tried everything possible to get allowed back in.
Tabitha, from the East side of Indianapolis, Indiana in the U.S., arrived with fellow players Aaron and Justin, forming the trio that came to be known as TAJ. The three arrived together via boat and recognized quickly that making alliances was the best way to stay in the running as far as the game went.
Tabitha was a strong and confident player and was able to pick up on the relationships that were forming with the other players, such as Lellies and Linda, and also see when cracks in their armor occurred.
Tabitha knew the game demanded that you had to be in the villa to win and played accordingly, desperately trying to keep Lellies out of the villa. An argument with Lellies would see Tabitha going to the camp, and Lellies would spill the tea to the others about Tabitha’s comments.
Justin and Aaron were caught off guard by the revelations but remained a strong unit despite the setback. However, when Tabitha voted for Copan, it left a bad taste in the mouths of their allies.
A further challenge saw Lellies back in the villa, further upsetting Tabitha, and the TAJ alliance started to crumble as the others began to see through Tabitha’s game-playing strategy.
The final nail in Tabitha’s coffin came in the form of a challenge that would see one player eliminated. The participants for this game were chosen by the Insiders, who were quick to pick Tabitha to go head-to-head with Gabe. Tabitha would make the wrong decision in a box switch game that would lead to her elimination from the process.

What did Tabitha think of the finale?
In an interview with Tudum, Tabitha was asked what they thought of Linda, who won the show, splitting the prize money with Lellies, and if would they have done the same.
They would say,
“God, no. Literally, I cannot. So dumb. In that moment, I was like, ‘Are you kidding me?’ You’ve been in the villa this time, so you can’t even blame that decision on being sleep-deprived or lacking your basic needs. I don’t get it. I wouldn’t have made that decision. I could have my best friend standing right next to me, and I still would’ve taken all the money for myself.”
