After four consecutive victories in comfort and immunity tests, the Matukad experienced two setbacks in a row in
“Koh-Lanta, the immunity hunters”
.
Plagued by tensions for several days, the Reds team was divided between Léa and Émilie over a discussion that the two women had in private and which targeted Mégane.

Did Émilie claim that we should be wary of the latter as Léa claims?
“It’s your word against mine
,” repeated the 22-month-old Sétoise.
During the council, the Narbonnaise admitted to having searched Alicia's backpack - with the complicity of Cécile and Julie - to check for the presence of an immunity necklace.
The last straw.
With eight votes against her (compared to two aimed at Léa), Émilie left the adventure at the end of the fourteenth day.

LE FIGARO. - Did you have a feeling that this advice was going to go so badly?
Emilie.

As soon as we took the path to the council, I knew that elimination was for me.
Before, people came to see me to talk about our voting intentions.
There, I was a spectator of the discussions and no one asked my opinion.
Some admitted to me that they were going to vote against me because I scared them.
Why was the atmosphere so tense in this Matukad team?
Léa's arrival was complicated, she was trying to gain everyone's trust, she went to peddle a lot of things.
It pitted people against each other and created a bad atmosphere in the group that wasn't there before.
We wondered who said what.
Léa put me in the middle of a tension.
Was it the misunderstanding of the comments made about Mégane or the search of Alicia's backpack that weighed the most in the balance?
I don't really know.
I never understood why Julie had spilled the beans when she was complicit in this backpack search.
Cécile had the intelligence not to say anything.
It was a combination of things that led to my elimination.
I also know that my sporting and strategic side was scary.
“I warned Léa about her behavior and her character which was annoying at the camp”
Emilie from “Koh-Lanta, the immunity hunters”
What did you really say to Léa about Mégane?
At the time of this discussion, we wanted to eliminate Léa.
We could no longer stand his character, his inactivity in the camp and his behavior.
I wanted to anticipate a strategy by trying to gain his trust, I went to tell him that we were going to eliminate the weakest first, David and Julie.
I had warned David in advance of this bluff.
Did it work?
Yes, Léa began to confide in me, to tell me that she got along well with Mégane, who was my great friend in the game. But I didn't want her to perceive my alliance with her.
I warned her that Mégane was upset that she dropped her bamboo just a few seconds after her during the previous test.
I also warned her about her behavior and her character which was annoying at the camp.
Did you expect this story to reach Mégane?
I don't know when Léa went to tell him her version and Mégane was very annoyed.
I never said what was reported to her and I immediately asked Léa around the fire if it was me she was talking about.
She didn't answer... If she had said yes, I would have explained myself straight away.
In doubt, the tension remained.

“I was shocked in front of my TV screen”
Emilie from “Koh-Lanta, the immunity hunters”
You ended up having a discussion with Léa...
There was no way out, she kept repeating that it was her word against mine.
Even during the council against Denis Brogniart, she remained frozen in her defense.
She, like me, remained stuck to our positions.
Julie was very harsh towards you by criticizing your moments of emotion and by denouncing the search of Alicia's backpack...
When I discovered last Tuesday the comments she made, I remained shocked by my TV screen.
Today, we get along well so I don't hold it against what was said or happened during the game. On the other hand, when she said in an interview, a year later, that I was fake and an actress, I take it badly.
Julie knows who I am, she knows my sensitivity and she knows it's not wrong.
Did you have the opportunity to talk about it with her?
No, not since the broadcast of the fourth episode and this interview she gave.
I don't know why she's mad at me, I can't understand.
Did you expect Meïssa to ask the question about searching the backpack during the council?
No, it was the question that finished me off but I chose to answer frankly by saying that there were three of us involved but that it was me who had searched.
“Today, Mégane is my best friend, we call each other every day”
Emilie from “Koh-Lanta, the immunity hunters”
Mégane voted against you stating that she could no longer trust you in the game. Where are you with her?
She's my best friend, we call each other every day!
We had an alliance of four, Mégane, Ricky, Cécile and me.
When I saw that Mégane and Ricky had voted against me, it broke my heart.
The fact that they could have doubted me, even though I was the originator of our alliance, broke my heart.
When Denis extinguished my torch, I told them that I would never have betrayed them.
Today, with Mégane, Ricky and Meïssa, we see each other very regularly, we have formed a beautiful friendship.
Do they regret having caused your elimination?
Yes !
Meïssa like Mégane and Ricky tell me that, if they had to do it again, they would not reproduce the same thing.
In the context of “Koh-Lanta”, the slightest discussion can shake up certainties and reverse trends.
What did you think of
Alexis' rant
during the previous tip that cost him his place in the game?
It's a shame he spoke so late and that led to his elimination.
This shows how important communication is and how tricky it is to find the right time to say things in “Koh-Lanta”.
Thanks to him, the Yellow team questioned itself and that did them good.
