Frédéric est photographe. Il travaille pour une municipalité du bassin minier dans le Nord de la France.

One of the oldest castaway of , Frédéric became an early target when he fell down first in the opening "Poles Challenge". The last castaway picked to join a tribe, he was rapidly marginalized on his tribe, and was voted out first when he failed to convince Cindy and Aliséa to turn their back on Tribe Chief Maxime. However, he had the opportunity to return to the game after Aliséa's evacuation.
As Ikalu did not attend Tribal Council anymore during the Tribal phase of the game, he remained safe for a while. At camp, he proved to be quite a provider for his tribe, but his lack of athleticism in Challenges as well as the age gap never quite erased and he was always the main target for his fellow castways. Although he was a very funny character and presence at Ikalu, his recurring bickering with Maxime, his assumed open-mindedness to strategy as well as his constant seeking of an Hidden Immunity Necklace insulated if from the others.
Right before the merge, Frédéric was seen as the odd one out at Ikalu, only having the support of Cindy, who openly underlined the hypocrisy of the other Ikalus. Indeed, with a Necklace in her pocket she did not agree with her tribemates' attempts to demonize Frédéric for being a strategist, while they were all constantly plotting against the two of them.
At the Ambassadors' meeting, Maxime could not convince either Béa and Alexandre to eliminate one of their tribemates and therefore he sacrificed Fred, not to endanger his own spot in the game. The photographer left the game, encouraging the merged tribe to be open to strategies and not be hypocritical when doing so.
As the first jury member of , he voted for his ally Cindy to win the game.
