The Trust’s Tolú Ekundare Kept Her Eyes on The Prize


Fallen friends, crumbling alliances, and a barrage of microaggressions wasn’t going to keep Tolú Ekundare from leaving with as much money as possible.

Tolú Ekundare wants to emphasize that Netflix’s The Trust, the new reality competition show where everyone arrives a winner yet contestants can cut people out of the prize, was always supposed to be about a life-changing amount of money. At the table, if you recall, Jake went around and gave every person a specific thing about their character, and then he just takes me and Winnie — two very starkly different individuals — and lumps us together and says “my two African queen sisters.” Mind you, that’s not the first time. I probably would have been like, ‘Y’all, let’s hold off for one night and see how this goes.’ Votes were gonna get casted regardless, but instead of assuming just the women were here to play a game […] I should have given it a day or two to really get to know everybody better and then from there make my alliances.
