Her husband, despite an outstanding performance last season, was sent home surprisingly by the fourth obstacle, Block Run.

Pauline returned in Season 12, a season shortened due to the COVID-19 pandemic, in St. Louis, and returned as part of her husband's group. Before her run, she spoke on what it's like working on the frontlines of the pandemic. In her run, she defeated the Shrinking Steps, however she couldn't reach the first bar on Weight For It, ending her run at the second obstacle once again.
