Ismaëlle was the last traitor still in the race in this first season of the reality show hosted by Karine Vanasse.
She left the adventure during the very last round table. She had been recruited into the renegade camp by Maxence, who offered her an ultimatum: if she did not agree to join him on the dark side, she had to leave the game.
“ That was very shocking, but it’s part of the game! », she says, laughing. “ In the scenarios that I had created, I had touched on this possibility, but I had not refined it, let’s say. »
Some devotees were able to detect an overnight change in her behavior, which encouraged them to eliminate her. She says she is surprised that the others were able to see through her game. Yes, it surprised me, honestly, and I don’t want to sound like a sore loser, but I think it was a stroke of luck. I don’t think my personality changed or anything, it really surprised me. From my point of view, I don’t think I’ve changed. »
Speaking about the things that were most difficult for her in this adventure, she told us: “ not to give up “. The 42-year-old ex-customs officer tells us that she has thought about leaving the adventure. “ I think it was halfway through. Paranoia had really taken over “, she says. “ Everyone was on edge, and the atmosphere was a little too tense for me. Then, I was like: “I’m not in my place, I’m not comfortable, I don’t like this atmosphere, I want to go back home”. »
What convinced him to stay in the game? A discussion with the psychologist assigned to guests. “ It’s an excellent thing that there was a psychologist on site to help us, to allow us to evacuate, then ventilate and everything. It was necessary, I think. » As it is a game where the participants can hardly have frank discussions with each other, since they always doubt the sincerity of their peers, the presence of a third person – what’s more a mental health professional – is very relevant. Bravo to the team for this human touch!
