Overview

  • During the June 15 episode in Fiji, DeSorbo began feeling queasy about 90 minutes into her guest-hosting duties before vomiting and losing consciousness
  • She said she had landed in Fiji less than 24 hours earlier, had taken a beta blocker that morning and wasn’t acclimated to the climate
  • DeSorbo noted her suede turtleneck, heavy hair extensions and a mic pack aggravated her discomfort under the sun
  • Production crew members provided water breaks, ice packs and shade and later assured her they could edit her early exit in post-production
  • Viewers questioned her abrupt disappearance on social media and DeSorbo thanked host Ariana Madix on Instagram for the hosting opportunity
