‘Survivor’: Get to Know Eric Macksoud’s Fiancée Gina DeVito
Eric Macksoud is still in the game to win Season 51 of Survivor, and he can’t stop talking about his fiancée, Gina DeVito, on the island. In fact, last week’s episode featured an entire montage of Eric making sure to name-drop his future wife in various conversations.
Several of Eric’s fellow castaways have expressed annoyance with some of his behavior, but regardless of what happens on the island, he certainly has the support of his lady back home.
“She’s always there for me in the highest highs and lowest lows, and her love inspires me to show up and work just as hard not only because she deserves it, but I deserve it too,” Eric told Entertainment Weekly ahead of Season 51 airing. “She’s the epitome of a soulmate, and I’m always in awe of how much we’ve accomplished since the first day I met her.” Scroll down to learn more about Gina and her relationship with the Survivor contestant.
Who is Eric Macksoud’s fiancée?
Gina is “living life unapologetically,” according to her Instagram bio. She also refers to herself as a “beauty lover and adventure seeker.”
While it’s unconfirmed whether it’s the same Gina, there is a Gina DeVito from Windsor Locks, Connecticut (where Eric Lives), on LinkedIn, and she works in marketing for Voya Financial. Prior to that, she spent four years working for Ulta Beauty, which tracks with the “beauty lover” mention in Gina’s Instagram bio.
When is Eric Macksoud getting married?
Eric and Gina are getting married on September 24, 2027. On July 15, 2026, they posted photos from their engagement shoot and noted in the caption that their wedding was 436 days away, which confirmed the date of their upcoming nuptials.
“I just can’t wait to marry Gina DeVito, my fiancée, next year,” Eric said in an interview with his alma mater. “I’m so grateful to have a loving and caring partner who is supportive of my dreams and ambitions, and I of hers. I can’t wait to do the rest of the planning. I can’t wait to get things set up. I can’t wait to get the suit. I can’t wait to see how she looks in her dress. I can’t wait to party, and I can’t wait to start the grandest adventure of all.”

The wedding will come nearly two years after Eric popped the question in December 2025. Gina shared the engagement story in an Instagram post, writing, “Last night my girls took me out to Savoy and I came home to being serenaded by the love of my life asking me to spend the rest of my life with him. Easiest yes of my life!”
How long have Eric Macksoud and Gina DeVito been together?
While it’s unclear exactly how Eric and Gina met, they’ve been together since 2023. Per a 2024 Instagram post, Eric’s birthday on October 5 was a “few days before” their scheduled first date the year prior.
They started popping up in Instagram posts with one another in December 2023. “Just some Jingle Bell Rockers,” Eric captioned his first post with Gina, which was shared on December 9.
