I can share what’s been reported recently: Jeff Probst’s younger brother, Scott Probst, passed away in May 2026. Brent Probst announced the death publicly, but the family did not disclose a cause of death. Scott had previously worked on Survivor in various crew roles and was part of the Probst family’s long association with the show.
If you’d like, I can pull together a timeline of coverage from major outlets and provide direct citations.
