From Yoni Puja, Shibani, mud bonding rituals with a heart warrior to learning to trust, gaining emotional maturity and forming long-lasting relationships, most of the contestants on Netflix's 'Too Hot To Handle' did evolve amid the included staged drama.

Netflix seems to be our liberator in times of need. While most of us around the world are stuck indoors amid the coronavirus pandemic, the streaming giant dropped a new reality dating series, that comes with a naughty twist. Ten hot singletons living in a tropical paradise in Mexico for four weeks.

They assume they are on the island for the most erotic and exotic summer vacation. But little did they know they have a twist coming. These ten horny, commitment-phobic contestants will not be allowed to have any kind of kiss or heavy petting, and self-gratification is disallowed as well. Break any rule and money will be deducted from the prize money of $100,000.

Equipped with a virtual guide Lana, who had her eye on them all the time, these contestants had to create deeper emotional connections, personal relationships and abstain from sexual practices for their entire stay. While most of them tried their best to stay away from temptations and breaking the rules, one contestant broke most of the rules, and gave into temptations, costing the prize money to drop the most.

It was none other than Francesca Farago who broke the rules not once or twice, but four times and cost the group to lose $32,000 from their prize money. The first time she broke the rule was when she kissed Harry, and that very night she broke the rule once again when she kissed Haley. Each rule break cost the group $3,000. 

Later, when Francesca got back with Harry and was offered the private suite for the night, the two broke the chastity test and had sex that night. The biggest rule break cost the group $20,000. The final time she broke the rule was when she got a little touchy and made out with Harry while everyone else was sleeping that night.

But through the workshops, Francesca learned to evolve and form a meaningful relationship with Harry. Even though she was tempted by Kori, she stood her ground and followed her feelings which were with Harry. The couple even won back the money by spending a night in the private suite without physical contact. 

Prior to coming on the reality tv series, Francesca had allegedly been dating DJ Diplo. Though there are no such pictures on her social media accounts, a few news outlets affirmed she and Diplo were in a relationship once.

She was an influencer with over 310,000 followers on Instagram even before she could appear on 'Too Hot To Handle'. She is a vegan who though works hard to keep her body in shape, has admitted having done body contouring. She hails from British Columbia, Canada and has an Instagram handle for her dog as well.

Francesca is also in the process of creating her own clothing line titled, 'Farago the Label'. The brand's Instagram bio describes her line as 'ethical, sustainable, biodegradable'. 

Francesca was one of the contestants who evolved the most among those who were with her on the island. She and Harry ended up leaving the island as a couple after they said the L word the night they lost $6,000.

It is still unknown if the two are still together, not forgetting the fact that Harry stays in Australia, while Francesca is in Canada.
