Koh-Lanta

Léa N. was one of two contestants, the other being William Plancq, to join the game at the beginning of the second cycle. After losing the corresponding Reward Challenge, the Matukad tribe was left with Léa N. to join them and increase their numbers to eleven. The Matukad tribe did their best to make Léa N. feel welcome, but many of its members would have preferred recruiting William because the tribe needed a fire. In the water, Alicia Bouly commented to Émilie Escaffre that she was unhappy about this turn of events, to which Julie Rignault responded that the tribe needs to get to know Léa N. and give her a chance. Feeling that she was not minding her business, Alicia told Julie to shut up. Léa N.'s potential reputation did not matter at this point though once the Matukad tribe lost the second Immunity Challenge as her status as a joker made her immune for the cycle. Instead, Alicia was voted out for being a weak link in challenges, which contrasted Léa N.'s best quality: performing well in challenges.

At the beginning of the third cycle, the twenty remaining contestants competed in an endurance challenge in which the two contestants that dropped out first of the tribe that would see all of its members drop out before the last of the other tribe's members would face off in an elimination duel. Émilie and Mégane Rouland were the first and second, respectively, to drop out of the Matukad tribe and Léa N. dropped out right after Mégane. Fortunately for Émilie and Mégane, Maxime Barbet and Ricky Poyet outlasted the last of the rival Kadasi tribe, William, and saved the two from the elimination duel.

At a point during the third cycle, Émilie and Léa N. had a discussion about Mégane. According to Émilie, she had told Léa N. to be considerate of Mégane because she was somewhat upset at Léa N. for having dropped out of the previous challenge right after her as if she did not have a reason to continue competing even if she was safe from the elimination duel at that moment. However, according to Léa N., Émilie had told her that she should be cautious of Mégane. Léa N. told her version of events to Mégane, who in turn raised the issue publicly with the rest of the tribe to get to the bottom of who said what. With Émilie now aware that Léa N. had recounted to Mégane a different version of events regarding their conversation than she had remembered, she approached Léa N. on multiple occasions to try to clear things up. Léa N. remained unwavering about her point of view and told Émilie numerous times that they will agree to disagree, much to the latter's frustration.

There was tension between Émilie and Léa N. over the following couple of cycles, which translated somewhat into the rest of the tribe. This all culminated when the Matukad tribe lost the fifth Immunity Challenge and went back to Tribal Council, where Léa N., in spite of being seen as someone who propagates chaos, especially by David Murail, was spared over Émilie, who was deemed untrustworthy after admitting to having checked Alicia's bag for a Hidden Immunity Necklace earlier in the game.

A couple of cycles later, Léa N. joined the rest of her tribe in voting out Maxime for his arrogance and strategizing, but she was reluctant because she felt that he deserved to stay because he was good in challenges and around camp and she secretly agreed with him in that the tribe was ungrateful. It turned out that Léa N. had received a couple of votes against her as well by David and Ricky, who explained to her that it was in case Maxime had played a Hidden Immunity Necklace for himself.

After the eighth Reward Challenge, which was won by the Kadasi tribe, Denis Brogniart announced that the merge would be taking place the next day and that both tribes would have to nominate their opposition's Ambassador. On the Matukad tribe, the members originally considered nominating a man to be the Kadasi tribe's Ambassador, but upon Ricky's suggestion, they ultimately decided upon Pauline Bonneil as they had chosen her to receive a clue to a Hidden Immunity Necklace two cycles prior and felt that they would be able to use this as a means of convincing her to flip. Meanwhile, the Kadasi tribe chose Léa N. to be the Matukad tribe's Ambassador because they felt that she may be less integrated into her tribe as their newest member. At the Ambassadors' Meeting, neither Pauline nor Léa N. budged on sacrificing one of their tribemates and that they were willing to go to rocks, so they prepared for the draw. At the last second, Léa N. revealed that she was testing Pauline to see if she would give in and that she is willing to offer up Ricky's name. Léa N. stated that it was because Ricky had voted against her the previous cycle, he admitted to not being willing to go to rocks if he were the Matukad tribe's Ambassador, and he was being less active around camp due to a decrease in morale. Pauline agreed to Léa N.'s offer and Ricky was eliminated.

After Pauline and Léa N. returned to camp and broke the news, the latter revealed another reason for offering up Ricky's name, that he had spoken to each of this tribemates beforehand to ask them to sacrifice him in the case that they became the Matukad tribe's Ambassador because he had had enough of the experience and was ready to return home. The original Kadasi tribe members were shocked to hear this, but the original Matukad tribe members confirmed that this indeed happened. Before leaving, Ricky hugged all of his original tribemates except for Léa N. and secretly gave Meïssa Seck his Hidden Immunity Necklace.

Kicking off the merge, Léa N. almost won the first individual Immunity Challenge, but lost to Jean Belmonte. Back at camp, even though the two tribes were now one, the six original Kadasi tribe members and the seven original Matukad tribe members strategized away from one another, with the latter group planning on pagonging the former group and trying to figure out who may have a Hidden Immunity Necklace among them and the former group working out for who to play any Hidden Immunity Necklaces at the merged tribe's first Tribal Council. However, Sébastien Cazaux bonded with Jean over the two being carpenters and learned from him that the original Matukad tribe members would be voting based off of merit, inciting the original Kadasi tribe members to want to protect Océane Montenegro, who was not as strong in challenges.

At Tribal Council, the original Matukad tribe members indeed voted against Océane while the original Kadasi tribe members voted against Léa N. Before the votes were read, Meïssa played his Hidden Immunity Necklace for Cécile Poprawa, Pauline played hers for herself, and Amri Madani played his for himself and for Océane. Léa N. was "idoled out" as a result and, when she asked why she was target, the original Kadasi tribe members explained that it was logical as she was at the bottom of her alliance and thus would be less likely to be protected by one of her allies with a Hidden Immunity Necklace. As Léa N. valued merit, she was disappointed with this reasoning and gave her Black Vote to Mégane.

At the Final Tribal Council, Léa N. cast her vote for Léa S. to win the title of Sole Survivor; she won in a 8-3 vote over Meïssa.

Trivia

• When the two tribes merged, the two Léas were distinguished by their original tribe affiliations. Léa N. was referred to as "Léa des ex-rouges" by Denis Brogniart during the ninth cycle and most votes against her had "Léa R(.)" written on them.
