7 Things You Didn’t Know About ‘Too Hot To Handle’s’ Rhonda Paul

Hot star alert! Rhonda Paul from Too Hot To Handle is captivating viewers after its series premiere over the weekend. The single lady looking for love is so much more than meets the eye.
With vibes pretty similar to Love Island, the Netflix reality TV series stars 27-year-old Rhonda Paul from Atlanta, Georgia. She ends up forming a steamy relationship with Sharron Townsend from Camden, New Jersey.
The two quickly fall for each other and form a deep connection, leaving viewers wondering what their fate is after the series ended.
They're part of 10 singles living on an island villa for four weeks in hopes of finding love and winning $100,000.
Just 12 hours into the vacation, the contestants learn the most shocking rule of the show. They're not allowed to do anything sexual.
