Since the release of the new episodes on February 23rd, fans of Outer Banks have been buzzing about the show’s third season. Nothing beats watching the Pogues repeatedly risk death in pursuit of El Dorado and the fabled city of gold.
Of course, the Pogues have several thorns in their side aiming to tear them down, including Ward and Carlos Singh. Sarah’s nasty older brother, Rafe, is one of these thorns once again.
Season 3 of Outer Banks began with Rafe seeming like he would be an ally (he and Kie were in that disaster together!), but he ultimately revealed his true Kook colors. Still, what exactly happens to Rafe by the season’s end, and what’s in store for him in Season 4?
What Happened to Rafe in Outer Banks Season 3?
Rafe has much to do throughout the third season of Outer Banks. To depose Ward as King Kook, he robbed a tourist, ordered a hit on his father, melted the Cross of Santo Domingo, and went as broke as he could. Rafe also had an affair with Sofia when he wasn’t busy with all of that other stuff.
In the final episode of Outer Banks’ third season, Rafe has second thoughts about killing Ward and stops the assassin. It’s during this fight that Ward gets hurt and a random bystander realizes he’s back in town because he saw him last. For his flight with the Pogues, Rafe has Ward hurry to the airport. When the cops arrive at the airstrip, the plane lifts off.
Who Plays Rafe in ‘Outer Banks’?
American actor Drew Starkey, 29, plays Rafe Cameron, Sarah’s brother, and Ward’s son. The North Carolina native starred as Garrett Laughlin in both Love, Simon and The Hate U Give, making him a household name in the process. His TV appearances include Scream: Resurrection (a VH1 slasher series) and The Terminal List (a Prime Video action thriller).
In the United States, Drew Starkey, then just 29 years old, became a household name because of his performance in the hit Netflix series “Outer Banks.” Released on Netflix on April 15, 2020, the mystery adventure series for teens was created by Jonas Pate, Josh Pate, and Shannon Burke. It was so popular that its second season premiered in July 2020. Following his amazing performance on the show, Drew received widespread acclaim and newfound notoriety. The
United States of America is where Drew Starkey’s birth took place on November 4th, 1993. His ancestry is white, and he is a citizen of the United States. His star sign, Scorpio, and his religion both point to Christian beliefs. He attended St. Stephens High School and then Western Carolina University for his undergraduate and graduate degrees. Photography and video games are two of his favorite pastimes.

Upon his graduation, Drew followed his passion for performing and entered the business. In 2018, he made his acting debut in “American Animals,” in which he had a bit part as Fart Boy. His fame skyrocketed after his introduction, and he was cast in numerous films and web series. Besides “Outer Banks,” some of his other well-known works are “Love, Simon” and “The Hate U Give.”
Will Rafe Be in Outer Banks Season 4?
At least we won’t have to say goodbye to Rafe just yet. As Drew Starkey was there when the renewal for Season 4 of Outer Banks was announced at the Poguelandia fan convention, he will undoubtedly return as Rafe. A further benefit is that Rafe survived the third season.
As Rafe didn’t stick around for the 18-month time leap or the season 3 finale, we have no idea what he’s been up to since leaving the airstrip. Is he in jail now? How did he find out about Ward’s passing? Is Sarah aware of his interest in her? Had he abandoned his drive for revenge and power?
Rafe’s future on Outer Banks is uncertain, but only time will tell. It’s only on Netflix, so binge all three seasons while you wait for season four.
