Season 5
Marco and Hannah
Marco and Hannah have been going strong ever since they first met in the Villa when Hannah entered as a Bombshell on Day 2. The couple won Season 5 and immediately moved in together after leaving Fiji. Nearly two years later in May 2025, they became the first USA Islanders to become engaged when Marco proposed in the Dominican Republic.
"To my forever, Last night, I asked the love of my life to be mine forever and she said yes," Marco wrote in an Instagram caption, announcing the news. "From the very first moment we met, we were inseparable. Through every high, every challenge, every laugh and every tear we’ve done it all side by side."
They've shared with their followers that they are getting married on December 12, 2026.
Bergie and Taylor
Sweet but adorably awkward, OG Islander Bergie was unlucky in love for a majority of his time in the Villa — until Taylor entered as a Casa Amor Bombshell on Day 17. The two instantly hit it off, went on to win third place, and continued exploring their connection in real life (even surviving Bergie's stint in the The Traitors castle) and are still boyfriend and girlfriend nearly three years later.
Season 6
Serena and Kordell
It was the many twists and impassioned turns of Serena and Kordell's love story that attracted millions of fans to Season 6, making the series a breakout hit for Peacock in summer 2024.

Despite both being from the Houston suburbs, the pair never met until they were OGs in the Love Island Villa. They coupled up on Day 1, but Serena friend zoned Kordell. However, their romantic connection proved hard to deny. A Casa Amor betrayal nearly stalled their momentum and a viral fight on the Villa docks looked like the end. However, the pair made up and won America's hearts and the season. They're still together to this day and even appeared on spinoff Love Island: Beyond the Villa together.
Leah and Miguel
OG Leah and Bombshell Miguel both explored other connections in the Villa before deciding to couple up on Day 15. Just two days later, Casa Amor hit Fiji and Miguel ended up recoupling, leaving Leah single. However, their chemistry was impossible to ignore and they ended up back together. Leah and Miguel won second place on Season 6 and have been inseparable ever since, also co-starring on the debut season of Love Island: Beyond the Villa.
Season 7
Nic and Olandria
Despite their second place finish on the most-watched Love Island USA season of all time, Nic and Olandria had an unconventional path to love.
They considered each other just friends and were largely committed to other connections for the majority of their time in the Villa — until Casa Amor. Both were Dumped, but given the chance to stay in Fiji if they chose to couple up with each other. This development delighted #Nicolandria fans, who had been shipping the pair since Day 1. They shared a passionate kiss, but still decided there was nothing romantic and chose their other connections instead. Fast forward to Day 26 where they both found themselves single once again and decided to recouple for a second time, just days before the final.
It all worked out in the end, with Nicolandria still dating in real life.
Clarke and Taylor
The Oklahoma cowboy spent the majority if his time in the Villa coupled up with Olandria, until he met Clarke in Casa Amor. The two couldn't deny their chemistry and Taylor famously declared, "I pick Clarke!" when pushed to confess who he had the strongest feelings for between the two women.
Despite being dumped on Day 26 and not making the final, Taylor and Clarke are still very much together. We'll see them doing their best to make long distance work on Season 2 of Love Island: Beyond the Villa, premiering Wednesday, April 15 at 6 p.m. PT/9 p.m. ET.
Iris and TJ
Bombshells Iris and TJ were exploring their chemistry right as Casa Amor hit. Once it was time to reunite, they chose to recouple with one another instead of with a new Bombshell. Their time together was short and sweet, as TJ was sent home during a surprise shock mass Dumping. Iris would go on to couple up with Pepe and they won fourth place, but they broke up soon after the season's reunion.
Iris and TJ found their way back to each other in the real world, and we'll see the moment he asked her to be his girlfriend when the two co-star on Love Island: Beyond the Villa Season 2 this spring.
On June 2, Love Island USA Season 8 will stream exclusively on Peacock. In the meantime, tune in to the second season of Love Island: Beyond the Villa, premiering Wednesday, April 15 at 6 p.m. PT/9 p.m. ET. You can also catch up on Beyond the Villa Season 1, all three seasons of Love Island: All Stars, both seasons of Love Island Games, and Seasons 4-7 of Love Island USA on Peacock.
