If you’re anything like me, you’ve probably found yourself deep in a rabbit hole, Googling the cast of the latest reality show you just binged. You know the drill—checking out their birthdays, zodiac signs, heights, and relationship statuses. So, it’s no surprise you’re here, especially since Love Island USA season 7 is winding down. Let’s catch up on which Love Islanders are still going strong in 2025! 💖
Season 1: A Rocky Start
Okay, but can we talk about the first season? It’s a bit disheartening to report that there are zero couples left standing. 😬 Elizabeth Weber and Zac Mirabelli took the crown and snagged that $100,000 prize, but they parted ways just a few months after the finale. Other couples, like Ray Gantt and Caro Viehweg, along with Cash Barnett and Kyra Green, also didn’t last long once they stepped away from the island. Who else noticed that reality TV romances often fizzle out? 🤷♀️
Season 2: More Heartbreak
Unfortunately, season 2 didn’t fare any better. Justine Ndiba and Caleb Corprew, the winners, ended their relationship shortly after filming wrapped up, even admitting they’d broken up before the finale hit our screens. Ouch! Cely Vazquez and Johnny Middlebrooks also called it quits in January 2021, proving once again that island romance doesn’t always translate to real life. Unpopular opinion: reality shows can really mess with our expectations of love. 💔
Season 3: A Flicker of Hope
Now, season 3 brought a couple of bright spots! While winners Korey Gandey and Olivia Kaiser split shortly after leaving the villa, Kyra and Will made headlines as one of the first Love Island couples to make things work long-term. They had their ups and downs but seemed to find their way back together by July 2022. They even created a joint Instagram account, though it went quiet by April 2024. Not everything was sunshine and rainbows, however. Shannon St. Clair and Josh Goldstein faced their own rollercoaster, with a four-month breakup. Sadly, by October 2023, Shannon confirmed they had split for good. Plot twist: not every island romance can weather the storm! 🌧️
Seasons 4 and 5: The Trend Continues
Winning the show doesn’t guarantee a lasting relationship, and that was certainly the case for Zeta Morrison and Timmy Pandolfi from season 4. They broke up after their journey ended. Zeta shared in an interview, “Timmy and I are no longer together, so there’s no more ‘Zimmy.’” As for season 5, while Serena and Kordell captured fans’ hearts with their connection, other couples like Carmen Kocourek and Kenzo Nudo didn’t survive the post-show world. What gives? Are we too invested in these love stories? 😅
Recent Updates and the Future
Fast forward to 2023, and we finally saw a couple get engaged: Hannah Wright and Marco Donatelli! They became the first Love Island USA couple to take that step in May 2025—how cute is that? 💍 Meanwhile, Taylor and Bergie are still making it work against all odds. However, not everyone from season 5 got their happy ending. Kassy Castillo and Leo Dionicio parted ways in October 2023. Leah, a fan favorite, found love with Miguel Harichi, continuing to surprise everyone, especially after being the runners-up despite a short coupling time. Who else is rooting for them? 🙋♀️
And let’s not forget JaNa and Kenny from season 6, who confirmed their love is still going strong over a year later. Yet, not every couple shared this fate, as Nicole Jacky and Kendall Washington broke up just a day after the season 6 reunion aired. Talk about a dramatic twist!
As we await the season 7 reunion on Peacock, set for July 13 at 9 p.m. ET, we can only hope for some good news about the latest islanders. Who do you think will make it? Let’s discuss! 💬✨
