Warning: Love Island USA Season 6 spoilers ahead. If there’s one romance trope to describe Kordell and Serena on Love Island USA Season 6, it’s undoubtedly a slow burn. But are they still together after leaving the villa? They have at least one unexpected supporter.
Kordell Beckham, a 21-year-old from Dallas, Texas, and Serena Page, a 24-year-old from Houston, Texas, were one of four couples in the Love Island USA Season 6 finale, along with Kendall and Nicole; Leah and Miguel; and JaNa and Kenny. Kordell and Serena were also both original islanders who arrived in the villa on day one and the only couple in the Love Island USA Season 6 to have both members be original islanders.

Kordell and Serena coupled up at the first coupling and remained together until week three when Kordell left Serena to couple up with Daia McGhee, a bombshell from Casa Amor. Serena, who received a video of Kordell and Daia kissing in Casa Amor, chose to become single at the recoupling.
Kordell and Serena remained broken up for several days until they reconnected after an emotional conversation over their feelings for each other and Kordell apologized for his actions in Casa Amor. Kordell and Serena recoupled at the next recoupling, which left Daia single and led to her dumping. After their drama with Daia, Kordell and Serena came out stronger than ever and remained coupled up until the Love Island USA Season 6 finale in week 5, where they were announced as the winners.

Serena, for her part, also confirmed that she and Kordell were still together in her own Instagram post of them together. “Your @loveislandusa season 6 WINNERS!!!!!❤️ Thank you all for your support throughout this season, we couldn’t have done it without y’all!!! Cheers to KORENA FOREVAAA,” she captioned the post. (Serena and Kordell also both follow each other on Instagram.)
Kordell confirmed he and Serena were officially boyfriend and girlfriend in a video on his Instagram Story on August 7, 2024. “I just asked her out yall she said yes,” he wrote over a video of him and Serena. Serena shared a “mini vlog” of the dinner date where Kordell asked her to be his girlfriend on her TikTok. “I asked her out,” Kordell said at the end of the TikTok, to which Serena added,, “He asked if he could be my boyfriend.” Kordell then joked that she “said no,” before Serena exclaimed, “I got a boyfriend, guys.” In an interview with People after the Love Island USA Season 6 finale, Kordell revealed that he planned to move to Los Angeles, where Serena lives, from his hometown of Dallas so they could be closer together. “Distance is not an issue,” Kordell said. “I can make a move, I can make it happen. And I plan on moving [to Los Angeles] soon.”
While Serena is making splashes with the rest of PPG on Love Island Beyond the Villa, Kordell is only making cameo appearances in the show. The reason is because he’s starring in Keke Palmer’s new show Southern Fried Rice. The two were very respectful of their choices. “He was like, ‘I will be there for you whenever you need me,’” Serena told Teen Vogue. “But he wants to prioritize his acting. And as you know, from our first conversation he let me know that was what he wanted to do.”
Love Island USA is available to stream on Peacock.
