Tolú Ekundare was the first contestant to enter the "Perfect Match" house in season two. She hails from "The Trust: A Game of Greed" season one, a new Netflix reality show where 11 strangers battle for $250,000.

On "The Trust," the prize fund is initially split equally between the players, but contestants can choose to vote out people so there are fewer competitors to share the money.

In season one, Tolú creates a faction to eliminate players she secretly thought threatened the prize fund. Eventually, this backfires when some members of the faction come clean and turn against Tolú and her closest allies.

Tolú made it to the end of the show and won $73,600. Now she has the money, she's looking for love.
