Contestant Jake Latimer says he gave his wife the option of him bowing out. "But she says, ‘No, you go out. This is your dream, go do it, and whatever money you make is mine.’” Latimer says his decision was complicated by his dad on the verge of losing his eyesight. Meanwhile, host Jeff Probst confirms that there were no special rules on updating Latimer on the birth of his child. “The rules on Survivor are really pretty clear,” Probst tells EW. “Which is no news at all about anything that's happening in the world, including in your own family. Unless it is an emergency situation. Then, of course we would tell you and present you with the option that if you want leave the game and go home, you can.”
