"Cara should go into acting!!! She’s an ACTRESSSSSSSSS big con woman."
"Cara played a masterclass of a competitive reality tv game. One of the best games I’ve seen in a LONG time across any show. Well played and well deserved," a fan commented.
"In conclusion money is not loud! I'm so happy for care. She deserves the money," a tweet read.
Some fans of Million Dollar Secret season 1 criticized her win:
"I wanted Sam to win, she was really good, ruthless when she needed to be, she read 99% of the situations correctly, I think she would've won if she hadn't allowed herself to be bamboozled by Cara's quiet and demure vibe," a person wrote.
"Sam played a good game in the beginning, only for her to trust Cara who happened to play a very naive and good game & win the money under her nose. I was rooting for her so bad, only for her to disappoint me. Anyway congrats to Cara for clinching the win," a fan commented.
"Cara played the f out of Corey and Sam so idec that she won. Corey was too entranced by her. She admitted to throwing the competition… when everyone is vying for a million dollars… Bffr. Aside from “scream” that was the most obvious clue in the game! Smh," a tweet read.
Fans of Million Dollar Secret season 1 further said:
"I don't think Cara played a good game, I think the game just got suspiciously easy when she had the money...Whack clues and easy tasks made it easy. Anyway great show just lacks consistency," a person wrote.
"I agree and disagree in the sense that some clues were more obvious than others making it unfair, however for Cara, I started to think she earned it towards the end. Her intuition was top notch and she chose the right people to end the game. That was really smart," a fan commented.
"So many things are running through my mind"— Cara comments on the final task in Million Dollar Secret
