COMPETING on “Survivor: Philippines” has given LISA WHELCHEL a new lease on life!
The ENQUIRER has learned that the star of the hit ’80s sitcom “The Facts of Life” made the final three in the cutthroat competition – and buoyed by confidence from that success she’s now planning a Hollywood comeback at the age of 49.
“Lisa wants to act again, but she’d also love to have her own talk show. She believes her exposure on ‘Survivor’ will lead to that,” says a source.
When her nine-year TV gig as spoiled rich girl Blair Warner ended in 1988, Lisa married Steve Cauble, a pastor. She devoted herself to raising their three children, writing Christian-themed books and speaking about her faith.
