Thomas Sheehan, known as Tommy, is the Sole Survivor of Survivor: Island of the Idols. Sheehan was known on the reality television show for being outgoing, competitive and goofy, navigating his way through the game by his social connections. Although Sheehan won the show, he didn’t have the smooth ride to get there, being targeted on multiple occasions, never gaining an advantage or winning a single individual Immunity Challenge, however it was his motivation and personable skills that gained him the title.
Sheehan, before Survivor fame, was a teacher and now continues to teach as well as referee high school games and lifeguard, though Sheehan has also gained a substantial social media following too. Sheehan has over 17 thousand followers on his Instagram, where he shares an intimate look into his private life, such as his stunning wife Nicole, Survivor sponsored giveaways which raise money for charities such as St Baldrick’s Foundation.
Sheehan is also known for his love of fitness, teaching children and hanging out with friends – still maintaining friends he met on Survivor such as Dean Kowalski, Elaine Stott, Janet Carbin and more, as well as regularly posting pictures of him meeting young fans, who it is clear he adores. Sheehan regularly supports charity causes on his twitter, such as to support the Speck Family Fire, or appearing in The Russell Hantz Show’s Survivor special which raised money for ALS Research, Awareness and Treatment, as well as creating fun polls to gather engagement such as deciding between Pixar films.
