Van Hurd is a former Hell’s Kitchen contestant, former Taino Smokehouse chef, and current chef for Riverhouse Catering. He placed 6th in Season 6 and 10th in Season 17. He first appeared in The Getaway, serving Ranks food. It’s assumed they kept in touch, as he was present during The Promised Land Battle. After the battle he continued to work at Taino. Years later Catra informed Van that he was on the run from the government. Van helped Catra get to the Giraffe Island, but in doing so that made Van a fugitive. 3 years later, Jordan, Catra, Lonnie, and Van refused to help Quittz, Shark Man, and Spider-Man in fear of losing more soldiers and getting themselves arrested by the government. However when JT activates the portals, Van, Catra, Lonnie, Jordan, and the Giraffes came out of the portals to defeat Hyrule and her crew for good. After Hyrule’s defeat and Beeb’s death, Van continued as a chef, while Catra also joined in the food business with him.
