Australians rallied behind Survivor favourite Luke Toki, raising more than $500,000 for him. Now he’s revealed what he spent it on.
prizemoney — has revealed that the majority of the cash has gone to paying off the mortgage on the family’s home.“It’s definitely put us in a crazy new direction of where we thought we were going in life.”“Life is exactly the same, I get up at 4am I get changed, at the train station by 5, work by 6, I’m still doing the same things,” he said.
His eviction before the finale was perhaps the season’s most devastating moment — for fans, and for Toki himself.Speaking to news.com.au after his final episode had aired, Luke revealed he’d found it difficult even watching back“Did they have to play that hell-depressing music too? It cuts through you like a knife! They really played it up,” he said with a laugh.
Luke put on a brave face as he was eliminated from the game, hugging the tribemates responsible for booting him out and giving host Jonathan LaPaglia a smile as his torch was snuffed.“When I got my torch snuffed by Jono, you can see, I’m trying to hold it all together, but then as soon as I walked down that little lane, I was a mess. I was hugging the camera crew, just bawling.
