Brigitte Willers is a contestant from Survivor South Africa: Panama.
After coupling up with Sam Allerton in a perceived showmance, Brigitte was identified as an early target on the Aguila tribe. She came into conflict with tribemate Nico Hinis, who reviled her vanity and apparently self-centered habits. Brigitte got the last laugh when she integrated into the Aguila majority and sent Nico packing the round before the merge. However, when Aguila entered the merge in the minority, the rival Rana Alliance took notice of Brigitte's transparent scheming and voted her out first, making her the first inhabitant of Dead Man's Island. After losing the re-entry duel, Brigitte finished as the second member of the jury.
