Joyce is a contestant from *Survivor: Ghost Island*.

## Survivor: Ghost Island

Joyce began *Survivor: Ghost Island* originally on the purple Naviti tribe. Whilst Naviti won the first two immunity challenges of the season, the outspoken Krystal and Toya brought Joyce and Narinder into their alliance. However, the quartet did not have an opportunity to vote together because Joyce was sent to Ghost Island when Naviti lost their first immunity challenge on Day 9. She skipped tribal council by staying on Ghost Island, where she lost her duel against Angela and lost her right to vote at her next tribal council. Joyce returned to the Naviti camp after their tribal council, where she learned that Narinder was voted out.

At the Tribe Expansion on Day 10, Joyce was chosen to join Angela, Isaac and Malika on the orange Malolo tribe along with Frank and Toya from Naviti. Despite the 3-3 split along original tribal lines, Toya and Joyce had no ties to Frank and were willing to work with the other Malolo players. Frank bonded with Angela and Isaac, so Toya and Joyce tried to connect with Malika and force a tie. However, Malika started to question her vote when Malolo lost their first immunity challenge on Day 12 after Isaac was sent to Ghost Island and learning that Joyce lost her ability to vote from her previous visit. At tribal council, Joyce was powerless as she watched the tribe unanimously eliminate Toya. On Day 19, Malolo and Yanuya were informed they would attend a Joint Tribal Council to eliminate a single player. Malika wanted to vote together against Reed, but Angela, Frank and Isaac convinced Joyce to blindside Malika.

When the tribes merged on Day 20, Joyce was a free agent because all three of her Naviti allies were voted out in the pre-merge. In the final moments before the first merged tribal council, Luna told Joyce to vote for Big T and she had no reason to disagree. Luna saved herself with a Hidden Immunity Idol and Big T was voted out with the second highest number of votes. The Final Twelve castaways were then split into two teams as part of a Double Elimination twist on Day 25. Joyce was placed on the orange team with Abigail, Angela, Jacob, Luna and Trisha, where it seemed clear that Abigail would be voted out as the only Naviti Alliance player. However, Luna worried about the dwindling number of women and tried to unite Angela, Joyce and Trisha to vote for Jacob. Joyce went through with this vote at tribal council, but Angela and Trisha felt threatened by Luna and brought in Jacob to blindside her.

The Naviti Alliance seemed to hold the majority by the Final Ten, though Joyce was willing to work with anybody as long as she survived the next vote. Jacob convinced Joyce they should go after Samir, as the most expendable of the majority alliance. Naviti was hoping to blindside Trisha, but Tariq used an Extra Vote and voted with Angela, Reed and Trisha to blindside Joyce. At the Final Tribal Council, Joyce voted for Tito to win the title of Sole Survivor.
