    Which Love Island USA winning couples are still together

    By Ayeesha Walsh,

    Love Island first launched in the US in 2019 after becoming a huge success across the pond with the UK's version of the show .

    Since its arrival, we have seen five couples crowned as winners of their successive seasons after weeks of heavy romance under the sun in a string of glamorous locations including Hawaii and Fiji. But life outside of the villa isn't always easy and many of the shows biggest stars find transferring their love story to real life isn't so easy.

    As the current and sixth season is drawing to a close fans may be reminiscing over past couples who won their hearts as well as each other's. Here we take a look at who is still going strong and who found life together outside of paradise too much of a challenge.

    Season One - Elizabeth Weber and Zac Mirabelli

    Season One winners Elizabeth and Zac were the first couple in the villa to say "I love you" and to make it official meaning for viewers they were the obvious choice to win. However, while they won over viewers with their on-screen spark, in the real-world their romance very quickly fizzled out and within a few months of the August 2019 finale the pair had called it quits.

    Season Two - Justine Ndiba and Caleb Corprew

    Justine and Caleb were the first black couple to win in Love Island history and after taking the crown in September 2020 enjoyed a few months together before they announced their split in January 2021, having last shared pictures together in November 2020. The pair confirmed that their romance had ended with a statement on Instagram where they thanks their fans for their support writing: "This announcement has been one that we have wrestled with for some time now.

    "Not knowing exactly when or how to deliver it. The nature in which we met and fell for each other comes with a unique set of obstacles that nothing in life can ever prepare you for. We genuinely appreciate those of you who have supported us, and thank you in advance to those of you who will continue supporting us as individuals moving forward."


    Season Three - Korey Gandy Olivia Kaiser

    After winning season three in summer 2021 Korey and Olivia found that their relationship didn't transfer well to real life as they struggled with the challenges life outside the villa brought. In December 2021 Korey confirmed their split writing: "It took me all the way to now to say something because I didn't want to believe it was real but this was a mutual decision to take a step back in our relationship and just be friends for now.

    "My time with Liv taught me so much about myself. I realized I can be vulnerable again and truly care for someone. When we were on love island everything was perfect and I can say that was honestly the happiest moment of my life."

    Season Four - Timmy Pandolfi and Zeta Morrison

    Zeta and Timmy won the show in August 2022 and while they did go on to continue their romance in the real world by January 2023 they had split up. Zeta took the opportunity to explain why when she appeared on Murad Merali's podcast. In the chat she even accused Timmy of ghosting her from the moment they left the villa and of not grasping that he should be her "person.

    She explained: "I feel like your person should be the person who gasses you more than the public and your family and everyone. They just want to lift you up all the time and just see you be your best self, and I felt like he was like, 'You get enough of that from everyone else, so you don't need it from me.' But that's who I wanted it from."

    Season Five - Hannah Wright and Marco Donatelli

    Marco and Hannah were the viewers favourite couple in August 2023 and have managed to continue their romance successfully after leaving the villa, still going strong almost one year on. Hannah previously admitted her admiration for her beau on Instagram as she shared pictures of them and gushed “From the villa to the real world, love doing life with you.”
