Let’s be real for a second. We all watched that Season 6 finale of Love Island USA and thought, "Yeah, these guys are actually gonna make it." The chemistry was electric. The drama was, frankly, exhausting. But then the cameras turned off and the real world—with its flight delays, Instagram DMs, and long-distance headaches—slapped everyone in the face.
It's 2026 now. The dust has settled, the spin-off Beyond the Villa has already aired its dirty laundry, and the "PPG" (Power Puff Girls) era has faced its toughest test. If you’re looking for a fairy tale, you might want to look elsewhere. But if you want the messy, honest truth about which Love Island USA Season 6 couples still together actually survived the transition from Fiji to "for real," you’re in the right place.
The Undisputed Champions: Serena and Kordell
Serena Page and Kordell Beckham didn't just win the $100,000; they seemingly won the lottery in terms of compatibility. Honestly, after the whole Cheez-It and Casa Amor debacle, nobody would have blamed Serena for walking away forever. But as of January 2026, they are the gold standard.
They aren't just "Instagram official"—they're business partners. From CeraVe commercials to high-fashion campaigns, their brand is massive. Kordell eventually made the move to Los Angeles to be closer to Serena, proving that the "distance isn't an issue" talk wasn't just for the reunion cameras.
- Status: Together and thriving.
- The Vibe: They actually like each other. You can see it in the way they roast each other on TikTok. It's not just for the clout.
- Rumor Mill: Fans have been spotting a promise ring on Serena's finger since late 2025. While they haven't announced a formal engagement yet, it feels like it's only a matter of time.
Leah and Miguel: The LA Power Couple
If you bet against Leah Kateb and Miguel Harichi, you probably lost some money. These two were the runners-up, but in many ways, they've become the face of the season’s lasting legacy.

Miguel moved from London to Los Angeles in early 2025. Think about that for a second. Moving across the world for a reality show connection is a huge swing, but it seems to have paid off. They live together now, and Leah has been vocal about seeing him as her "soulmate."
There was a lot of talk about them being "too hot" to stay monogamous in the real world, but they’ve basically shut that down. They are constantly together, whether it’s at iHeartRadio festivals or just filming content for their upcoming projects.
The Shocking Fallout: JaNa and Kenny
This one hurts. It really does. JaNa Craig and Kenny Rodriguez were the couple everyone rooted for because they felt so... grounded. But the summer of 2025 brought an end to "KaNa," and it wasn't a clean break.
They officially split in July 2025, right around the time Beyond the Villa was wrapping up. JaNa didn't hold back, calling the situation "terrible, disgusting, and disappointing." The tea was piping hot: her best friends Leah and Serena jumped into the comments to call Kenny a "clout demon" and a "narcissist."

It’s a stark reminder that what we see on a 45-minute edited episode isn't always the full picture. Despite looking solid on the show, the transition to living in different cities (Dallas and Las Vegas) and the pressure of the spotlight created a rift that clearly couldn't be mended.
The "We Saw That Coming" Section
Let’s quickly touch on the couples that didn't even make it past the first few months.
Kendall and Nicole
Their relationship hit a wall almost immediately after the reunion. Between the leaked videos and the lack of trust, it was a recipe for disaster. Kendall ended things via a phone call in August 2024, just a day after the reunion aired. It was messy, public, and definitely final.
Kaylor and Aaron
Watching Kaylor Martin and Aaron Evans was like watching a slow-motion car crash. The Casa Amor betrayal was just the tip of the iceberg. By the time the reunion rolled around, the "Fawwwwk Aaron!" memes had taken over the internet. They tried to make it work for a few weeks post-villa, but Kaylor eventually saw the light.

As of late 2025, Kaylor has moved on with a new guy named Torin Dunn. She even blocked Aaron on social media. Growth!
Why This Season Was Different
Usually, Love Island couples have the shelf life of an open carton of milk. But Season 6 felt different because the core friendships—specifically the PPG trio—actually held the couples accountable.
When things went south for JaNa, the other girls didn't just stay quiet to preserve their "brand." They spoke up. That level of real-world loyalty is rare in reality TV. It’s also why the couples that did survive (Serena/Kordell and Leah/Miguel) feel so much more authentic. They had to survive the scrutiny of not just the fans, but their closest friends.
Your Next Steps for Following the Cast
If you’re still obsessed with the Season 6 crew, here is how to stay updated without getting lost in the "stan" Twitter madness:
- Watch "Beyond the Villa": If you haven't seen the spin-off yet, it fills in the gaps between the Fiji finale and the 2025 breakups. It’s on Peacock.
- Follow the "PPG" YouTube Channels: Leah and Serena are both leaning heavily into long-form content. That’s where you’ll get the actual nuances of their relationships, rather than just curated Instagram photos.
- Check the Tags: If you want to know if a couple is still together, don't look at their main feed. Look at their "tagged" photos. If they haven't been seen together in 48 hours, the internet usually starts spiraling—but usually, the tagged photos tell the truth.
The reality is that Love Island USA Season 6 couples still together are a rare breed. Only two of the final four are still standing. In the world of reality dating, that’s actually a pretty decent success rate.
