Most reality TV romances are ash within forty-eight hours of filming wrap.
Some couples here survived. A few got engaged. Most just kept scrolling on Instagram without posting break-up stories. Let’s look at the ones still together.
Season 7 survivors
Clarke Carraway and Taylor Williams
Taylor Williams picked Clarke. Fans were furious. Olandria Carsten took the heat, not the winner’s spot. Since that chaotic split, the pair hasn’t wavered. October came. Taylor popped the question in a video. They made it official on IG. “I pick you always.” Simple.
It’s official 🩵 I pick always ♾️
Olandria Carthen and Nic Vansteenberghe
Olandria and Nic finished second. Second place usually means dead on arrival for couples, but they kept moving. Long-distance is brutal, especially when one guy DJs and the other shoots photos constantly. He’s in a club on Wednesday, she’s not in Houston. He’s rarely in Florida.
Schedules collide randomly. They met for dinner in LA because timing aligned. “Just pray that it aligns,” Nic said. It works for now.
TJ Palma and Iris Kendall
Iris left with Jose “Pepe.” Pepe lasted maybe three days post-villa. Enter TJ Palma. They connected inside, broke up, then rebuilt outside. By November 2025 they posted side by side again. “officially coupled up.” Sometimes you need a second chance at a first impression.
Season 6 holdovers
Leah Kateb and Miguel Harichi
Leah’s Season 6 was messy. Rob Rausch complicated things. Then Miguel arrived. She found what she needed. In March, Leah wrote him a birthday message that reads like a confession. “You are the best part all my days.”
She admits her own energy can be much worse but his is pure, infectious, and rare. She loves him. The photos show two people comfortable in each other’s space, even across different rooms.
Kordell Beckham and Serena Page
Another couple who survived the Casa Amor reset. Kordell and Serena walked out with the crown and a hundred grand. They turned out the BET Awards later in the summer. Photos went up. People stopped hating. Kordell captioned one image calling Serena his beautiful woman, while she called him her baby booo. Public approval rose when they showed up looking polished.
Season 5 engagements
Carsten ‘Bergie’ Bergesen and Taylor Smith
Carsten didn’t propose immediately. He waited. Six months of planning a moment that changed their entire timeline.
For past 6 months have been planning my proposal to love of life Taylor Nicole Smith
Carsten said Love Island doesn’t dominate his thoughts daily, but the show delivered the only thing he couldn’t find elsewhere. “I cannot imagine a life without Taylor.” The engagement photo gallery proves commitment isn’t a flash anymore. It’s a contract they’re ready to sign.
Marco Donateli and Hannah Wright
Season Five delivered double win status for these two. Both left together, stayed engaged, and later married each other. In May 2026, Marco dropped an emotional reel. Not flashy lighting or big rings at first glance—just a confession about grief, loss, and connection.
His mother passed before this, but he believes she brought him to Hannah. The caption references feeling peace through Hannah’s touch and seeing parental love inside her character. It got heavy quickly. Real relationships carry that weight too, not just filterable dates.
From the very moment met were inseparable… truly believe mom sent you 💍
He calls her his light, home, best friend. The timeline stretches far ahead of any villa clock. Will it stay together forever? Hard to say with any certainty, but right now nothing suggests they are packing up separately.
