Koh-Lanta[]
Mathilde was placed on the first-ever blue starting tribe, Takéo, after having earned a Hidden Immunity Necklace during the marooning. Mathilde initially vibed very well with the other women while Yves Rey and Dylan Thiry made themselves easy targets early on thanks to their combative behaviour, with the latter of these two being voted out unanimously at the first Tribal Council. At the beginning of the second cycle, the contestants were joined by three new competitors, Sébastien Gottiniaux, Claire Pradayrol, and Vincent Roux. After placing last in the corresponding Reward Challenge, the Takéo tribe was left with Claire to join them and increase their numbers to six. The Takéo tribe lost the third Immunity Challenge and, evidently, Yves remained an easy target. However, Hada Ghoulam had heard from Kelly Beaugrand that Frédéric Blancher, Claire, and Yves were going to vote against Mathilde in an attempt to flush out her Hidden Immunity Necklace, so she suggested to Mathilde that she play it that night so that the votes against Yves would remain the majority. Mathilde was skeptical of this information, so she questioned Frédéric about it, which he denied was true. What resulted from this was a conflict between Kelly and Hada and the rest of their former allies, with the latter party accusing the former party of being manipulators. Knowing that he had just found an opportunity to skate by again, Yves did not interfere in this conflict. At Tribal Council, Kelly sided with Hada, but the rest of the tribe voted out Hada. It was confirmed in a later episode that Frédéric and company had considered casting their votes against Mathilde during this cycle, but decided against it as they felt that her Hidden Immunity Necklace could benefit the tribe. At the Final Eighteen, a tribe dissolution challenge took place, with the Sokka tribe losing and thus being disbanded. The Takéo tribe assigned Claire to select which of its former members they would absorb and she selected Corentin Albertini, Félicie Greugny, Vincent, and Brahma Sadeyen. This newly-constructed tribe ended up attending multiple Tribal Councils over the tribal phase, but Mathilde survived each one in spite of the looming threat of her Hidden Immunity Necklace. Before the merge, the Bokor and Takéo tribes selected Mathilde and Sandro Gonzalez Schena, respectively, to be the Ambassadors of their rivals. Before Sandro went to the Ambassadors' Meeting, he and the rest of the Bokor tribe, save for Yassin Metiri, agreed that Sandro could sacrifice Yassin as he was likely to be the next person voted out anyway on their end due to his failed social interactions. At the Ambassadors' Meeting, Mathilde and Sandro agreed to this, but not before they negotiated that Mathilde would transfer her Hidden Immunity Necklace to Sandro upon returning to camp. At the beginning of the merge, the second Bokor tribe members only held a slight numbers advantage over the second Takéo tribe members, but this was enough for the former group to easily vote out Vincent of the latter group in a 6-5 vote due to his position as a challenge threat. The next cycle, after Vincent reentered the game to replace Manuella Baudet who had been evacuated from the game after a series of fainting spells, the two factions of the tribe became more united and agreed to behave as such by voting based on merit. Thus, Sandro and Marjorie Rousseeuw were voted out in consecutive cycles for his duplicitous strategizing and for her seeming completely spent in challenges, respectively, with Sandro giving what was once Mathilde's Hidden Immunity Necklace to Clémentine Jullien on his way out. Mathilde fell into a faulty social position, but was able to survive the next few cycles and make the finale through being paired with Vincent during the Tied Destinies twist, finding and playing a Hidden Immunity Necklace on herself, and winning the final immunity challenge. Having made it to the finale, Mathilde was eliminated at the Final Four after losing the Orienteering challenge.
