After her win, she told Entertainment Weekly what she plans on doing with the prize money. "I'm not touching it," she said. "I really did go out there to set up myself for retirement. I am going to take a little bit longer of a maternity leave than I would've originally, but yeah, I'm going to be working the same. I'm living the same. I'm pretty much just putting it away and forgetting about it."

Petty also told EW that she doesn't know if she'll return to the Survivor island if she's ever asked to appear on the show again. "I've gotten asked this a hundred times in the last 12 hours," she said after her win. "I think my Survivor experience was everything I wanted it to be. I know what it's like to be on the bottom. I know what it's like to be on the top. I think I'm good. Of course, if they call, you need to think about it. But I am very full from Survivor and I don't have anything else that I need from the island. I went out there to win. I won."
