Love Island USA Has a Surprising Track Record of Who’s Still Together—Take a Look at All the Couples From Every Season

Amaya & Bryan (Season 7)

Relationship status: Split

Amaya Espinal, a bombshell who joined on Day 5, and Bryan Arenales, a Casa Amor boy who entered on Day 17, coupled up for the first time on Day 26 and stayed together until the end of Love Island USA Season 7.

Right before the reunion aired on August 25, the two had unfollowed each other on Instagram. Some TikTokers had alleged that Bryan cheated on Amaya again when a video of him talking to another woman at a restaurant surfaced. In the reunion trailer, host Andy Cohen had asked where Bryan was on the night when the cheating allegedly happened.

Amaya announced in an Instagram Story on August 27, 2025—two days after the Love Island USA Season 7 reunion aired—that she and Bryan had broken up. “Bryan and I are no longer together. After leaving the villa, it became very clear that we were on two different journeys. Our visions didn’t align and relationships are supposed to be a team sport. You don’t have to drink the whole sea ot know it’s salty,” she wrote. “All love here and I truly wish him the best.”

Nicole & Olandria (Season 7)

Relationship Status: Still Together

Nic Vansteenberghe and Olandria Carthen, two original islanders, coupled up for the first time on Day 18 after they were both dumped during Casa Amor but were given the choice to couple up to return. After one day as a couple, they agreed to stay friends before Nic recoupled with his original partner, Cierra Ortega. After Cierra was removed from Love Island USA on Day 26 after posts of her using a racial slur resurfaced, Nic was left single, and he and Olandria recoupled for a second time on Day 26. 

Given that Love Island USA films two to three days before episodes air, it’s likely that Nic and Olandria are still together. They also have the support of Nic’s family who have named Olandria as their pick for him from the start of Season 7. “I felt a spark with him and Olandria initially. I felt like they had this passionate thing between them and I like her because she’s got a good head on her shoulders and she’s very authentic. She’s solid. And she’s beautiful. Jesus, I’m so jealous of her body,” Nic’s mom said in a TikTok, as his sister, Ella, added, “We love her.” His mom continued, “I don’t really feel like they’re making the connection every episode, but I would love to see it.”

Nic’s sister also shared a video on social media of Nic’s mom and dad cheering after he coupled up with Olandria for the second time. Nic and Olandria do have the issue of distance, however. Nic is from Jacksonville, Florida, while Olandria lives in Houston, Texas. Cierra also supported Nic and Olandria after she liked an Instagram post shared by Nic’s family of the couple with the caption: “And so it was written in the stars.”

Huda & Chris (Season 7)

Relationship status: Split

Huda Mustafa, an original islander, and Chris Seeley, who joined as a Casa Amor boy on Day 17, coupled up for the first time on Day 20. They stayed together until the end of Love Island USA Season 7 finale when they broke up during their date after a fight over Chris not wanting to cuddle Huda the night before. Huda broke up with Chris because she believed they didn’t have enough of a strong foundation to attempt a long-distance relationship. They started to show cracks in their relationship before the finale when they got into a fight over Huda not kissing Chris in public in front of the other islanders, but having sex in the same room as them. 

Huda lives in Raleigh, North Carolina, while Chris is from Fresno, California, but plays for a professional basketball team in Indonesia. Huda also has a daughter, Arleigh, with her ex-boyfriend, Noah Sheline. While Chris told Huda that he has no issues with her being a mother, fans were skeptical of how their relationship could work if Chris lives in Indonesia. 

Huda’s ex, however, supported her decision to go on Love Island USA. “At the end of the day I hope everyone remembers we’re human,” he wrote in an Instagram Story in June 2025 in response to the hate Huda was receiving. “Her going on that show to find love, or whatever you think it was she’s doing, remember she’s still human, she has a daughter, and a life.” He continued, “She’s maybe not doing a great job idk I don’t watch the show but I don’t like that I’m seeing so much negative shit on my page or even clips of it about her,” he added, calling the hate “unhealthy.”

He also expressed his concern for her mental health. “It’s not my job to police her or the people in my comments, but I will say what you guys do will affect her mental health and my daughter’s maybe in the future. So I’m looking out for her in that aspect. Out of respect for our daughter,” he wrote.

Iris & Pepe (Season 7)

Relationship status: Split

Iris Kendall and Pepe Garcia, two bombshells who joined on Day 9, coupled up for the first time on Day 26 after Iris’ former partner, TJ Palma, was dumped from the island as a result of a vote from America on Day 24. Pepe, for his part, had his strongest connection, Hannah Fields, dumped from the island on Day 16. While Iris and Pepe don’t live in the same city, they do live the closest of any other couple from Love Island USA Season 7. Iris is from Los Angeles, California, while Pepe lives in Santa Ana, California. 

Iris’ best friend, Malyssa Molina, also hinted at the invisible string theory between them in a TikTok comment, in which she revealed their mutual connection. “On the other hand, pepe is one of my other bridesmaids good friends, so im a little bias towards them working out bc it feels like fate to me. Like the red string theory. But im a hopeless romantic,” Malyssa wrote. 

Right before the reunion, fans noted that Iris and Pepe have unfollowed each other on Instagram. Iris’ sister, Ruby Kendall, has also unfollowed Pepe, as well as his ex from Love Island USA Season 7, Hannah Fields. (Pepe also unfollowed Hannah back.)

Iris also seemingly addressed cheating rumors with an Instagram Story of a sunset set to Fleetwood Mac’s breakup song, “Silver Springs.” “Time cast a spell on you, but you won’t forget me / I know I could’ve loved you, but you would not let me / I’ll follow you down ’til the sound of my voice will haunt you / You’ll never get away from the sound of the woman that loves you,” the lyrics read.

Ace & Chelley (Season 7)

Relationship status: Still together

Ace Greene and Chelley Bissainthe, two original islanders, coupled up on Day 13 and stayed together—except for a short break in their relationship during Casa Amor—until their elimination in fifth place in the episode before the Love Island USA Season 7 finale.

Ace and Chelley confirmed they were still together in an interview with Variety after their elimination, in which Ace revealed Chelley’s plans to move to Los Angeles, California, to be closer to him. (Chelley currently lives in New York City, New York.) “We are going to take our time day by day. We are still getting to know each other outside of villa life. Life is completely different from what America gets to see. I’m excited to grow our relationship and improve our communication, especially since she’s in Florida. I’m in L.A., but she’s looking to move to L.A., and we’ll go from there,” Ace said.

Ace also confirmed that he and Chelley plan to stay “exclusive” outside of the villa. “I hated the term ‘closed off’ — they get closed off in the villa, go outside, and now they’re free to roam. I’m very intentional. ‘Exclusive’ means exclusive to only each other. That’s not just in the villa. That’s in the outside world too. And I’m excited to translate that over,” he said.

Ace and Chelley were also the only couple on Love Island USA Season 7 to have met before filming started. In the premiere, Chelley revealed that she and Ace met at a nightclub in New York City months before filming and stayed connected on social media, which led the other islanders to compare them to the invisible string theory. After the reveal, a video of Ace resurfaced of him seemingly wishing Chelley a happy Valentine’s Day, which led to rumors that he and Chelley were secretly in a relationship before Love Island USA Season 7 started filming. 

Chelley’s friends, however, denied the rumor in an Instagram Story in June 2025, claiming that the two had only met once in New York City. “We want to be transparent and clear the air, as some of the rumors have gotten far from the truth,” Chelley’s friends wrote. “Chelley and Ace briefly crossed paths in New York and later connected on social media.” The post continued, “They were never in a relationship, never lived together, and there are no children or hidden past. What’s unfolding now is real, unscripted, and could change at any moment. We’re fully supporting Chelley, wherever her heart leads and with whomever she chooses to couple with.” Ace and Chelley also have the issue of distance in their relationship. 

Ace also responded to accusations he was “strategic” in the villa in an interview with Variety. “It was not being strategic,” he said. “It was being very intentional with every conversation. I’ve already had a following coming into this, and I didn’t want to come in with that entertainer mindset of doing whatever to get attention. It wasn’t that. It was me being open and communicating to the fellas, ‘We have to communicate more if you want to talk to a person. Let them know if you’re not interested so there’s no miscommunication, people think you’re or that you are not here for the right reasons.’ But I never was strategic. I stated how I felt every time. It was never a matter of Ace being messy. If you feel a way, come talk to me about it, or I’ll pull you aside to clear the air. Again, it’s 24 hours in a day. You guys get shown for one hour. But I was never trying to be strategic or messy. Messiness is when you don’t want people to know how you’re feeling. I’m gonna stay how I feel every single time.”

Austin & Jaden (Season 7)

Relationship status: Split

Austin Shephard, an original islander, and Jaden Duggar, a Casa Amor girl who joined on Day 17, coupled up for the first time on Day 18. They stayed together until they were dumped from the island on Day 24. Jaden revealed in an interview with “The Viall Files” podcast on July 9, 2025, that, while she and Austin were still talking, they weren’t exclusive because they live on opposite coasts. (Austin is from Fort Lauderdale, Florida, while Jaden lives in Los Angeles, California.) “I would say it’s still a thing. We’re still talking. We had such a good time in the villa. I don’t think we want it to stop now, but we do live on opposite ends of the country. We couldn’t be further apart. I think time will tell,” Jaden said. 

They announced their split in the Love Island USA reunion where Jaden said she was “blindsided” by his actions. “I did send you a message, if you were planning on dating or hooking up with other people, if you could just let me know,” she said, adding that she didn’t care what he did. “Just like, give me the respect of letting me know. And then you didn’t.”

Taylor & Clarke (Season 7)

Relationship status: Still together

Taylor Williams, an original islander, and Clarke Carraway, a Casa Amor girl who joined on Day 17, coupled up for the first time on Day 18. They stayed together until they were dumped from the island in sixth place on Day 28. Taylor and Clarke confirmed they were still together in an interview with E! News on July 11, 2025, in which they opened up about their plans to make their relationship work despite living in different states. (Taylor is from Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, while Clarke is from Charlotte, North Carolina.)

“We’ve talked about making it work,” Taylor said. “We already had communications about me going down to Charlotte and her coming to Oklahoma, so we’re definitely gonna make it work.” Clarke, for her part, confessed that she’s known to “overpack at all times,” but she’s ready to keep her suitcase light when she visits Taylor’s farm. “I just need my cowgirl things ready,” she said. “I probably won’t even wear half the stuff that’s in my closet.”

Taylor and Clarke also confirmed their plans to “see each other” in the real world in an interview with Us Weekly. “Get her turned into a little cowgirl and see how well she does being a cowgirl,” Taylor said. “It is something that we’re going to keep going.” Clarke, for her part, told the magazine that she’s “for sure” down to be Taylor’s cowgirl.

Clarke also reacted to Taylor claiming Clarke could be The One before their elimination on Love Island USA. “I didn’t hear that!” she said. “That’s my first time hearing that. Interesting. When did you say that?” She continued, “I love to hear that. I mean, I always have felt reassured. I love that we’re on the same page.”

Kordell & Serena (Season 6)

Relationship status: Still together

Kordell and Serena left the villa as the season 6 winners and $100,000 richer.

“Even [the conversation about] closing things off [in the villa] was just like, ‘Yeah, so we gonna do this?’ … I feel like we’ll both just know at the right time.” Serena does have one important note for her man. “[But] when he does ask instead of, ‘Will you be my girlfriend?’ I like, ‘Can I be your boyfriend?’ The wording matters.”

The two are still going strong and are supporting each other in various ways. Kordell only has a guest role in the Love Island spinoff Love Island: Beyond the Villa since he was prioritizing his acting career in Keke Palmer’s Southern Fried Rice. The decision was a little nerve-wracking for his girlfriend.

“At [first] he was going to do it with me. I had fully confirmed, signed the contracts and everything, and then he got booked,” Serena told Teen Vogue. “I was very proud of him, but I was sad and it made me very anxious about filming because I was like, ‘Damn, I’m going to be alone.’”

Leah & Miguel (Season 6)

Relationship status: Still together

Leah and Miguel ended up as season 6’s runner ups and with their love spanning across the pond, they are trying their hardest to make it work. “Leah is an incredible woman. [We] get along in a way that I wasn’t expecting to ever get along with anybody in the villa,” Miguel gushed. “We have such similarities, our banter is the same. She understands my goofy side. She understands me for who I am. She took me away [with] how incredible of a person she is.”

He continued, “I definitely want to see how far this goes and whatever happens, whatever happens, I don’t want to lose what me and her have created,” he said. “She’s definitely someone that I’ll hold dear for, I think, the rest of my life. We have made little plans — she wants to introduce me to her animals at her farm, which is what I’m looking forward to the most.”

JaNa & Kenny (Season 6)

Relationship status: Split

JaNa and Kenny are reportedly not together, according to TMZ.  TMZ reported that JaNa who ultimately made the decision to split. However, the site did say that “JaNa’s been leaning on her close girlfriends all day to help her get through her heartbreak.”

They did admit that they were giving each other time after leaving the villa. “I’m giving him 10 days max to have his alone time,” she told Us Weekly. “And then boom, he’s gonna come visit me in Vegas. We have plans in Dallas for the Texas State Fair. He wants to do the rodeo, the gun range, like, we’re just doing Texas [soon],” JaNa told Us. “And he’s never been to Vegas, so [we have] to do the gambling and the shows and the clubs and everything you can think of. I’m gonna have it all laid out for him. We’re busy when we get out of here.”

“I’m gonna be missing her and thinking of her a lot, so It’ll be sad when we have to say bye at LAX,” Kenny said.

They kept to their word and have been doing long distance. “[We] do a lot of work together but we also have just [the right] amount of time so we can miss each other,” JaNa told People in October 2024. “That distance also helps the heart grow fonder. But it also doesn’t put a lot of pressure on us to need to be with each other all the time. I kind of like it that we don’t live in the same city right now.”

Hannah & Marco (Season 5)

Relationship status: Still together

Hannah and Marco from Love Island USA season 5 took home the $100,000 cash prize ($50k each) as the winners of the season and they’re still together to this day (as written in June 2024). Their social media accounts—@hannnahmwright and @marcoadonatelli, respectively—feature loads of loved-up snaps of the happy couple.

“First impression, he was definitely my type, somebody I would go for on the outside. I was like, ‘Oh, he’s a pretty boy, I don’t know about relationships.’ Off the jump, seeing him, he was just looking at me and smiling,” Hannah told Screenrant. “The moment I saw her…my heart skipped a beat, my stomach had butterflies, and I just smiled at her. I didn’t even say anything when we had that [first] group conversation – I was just smiling at her,” Dom added.

Taylor & “Bergie” (Season 5)

Relationship status: Still together

Season 5 has a pretty good track record! We can tell Taylor and Carsten aka “Bergie” are still together from their social media activity; they’ve been going to weddings and on vacations together ever since the finale aired.

This is despite his family thinking their relationship wasn’t genuine while they were contestants on the show. “Taylor is a beautiful woman but I have some reservations,” his grandpa observed. “Because I haven’t seen spontaneous chemistry between the two of you. It looks more or less forced to me.” 

Nuts to that, they said, because they confirmed their boyfriend-girlfriend status in their final date on the show. “I was coming in here with no expectations, to be honest, but I had no idea that I was going to find a connection like we have,” Taylor told him during the August 28 2023 episode. “You make me feel really great about myself and you make me feel special and important.”

Kyra & Will (Season 3)

Relationship status: Split

Kyra and Will finished Love Island USA in second place and notably believed their relationship wouldn’t work out. And for a little while, it didn’t; they temporarily broke up in 2022. But 7 months later, they reconciled. They were together for a while, posting on their joint Instagram @kywiadventures. Their last post was shared on April 27, 2024, and they subsequently broke up.
