Kaylor Martin. If you watched Season 6 of Love Island USA, that name probably triggers a very specific sound: the sound of sobbing. Specifically, Kaylor crying over Aaron Evans. It was the "sparkling summer" that turned into a total mess. People are still asking, almost two years later, who does Kaylor end up with?
Honestly, the answer isn't who you think.

If you were hoping for a fairy-tale ending where Aaron finally realized the error of his ways and they rode off into the sunset, I've got some news for you. That ship didn't just sail; it hit an iceberg, sank, and has been sitting at the bottom of the ocean for quite a while now.
What Really Happened With Kaylor and Aaron?
Let’s be real for a second. Kaylor and Aaron were the "day ones." They were supposed to be the rock-solid couple of the villa. But then Casa Amor happened, and Aaron decided to treat the experience like a free pass. While Kaylor was literally sleeping outside on the daybed to stay loyal, Aaron was... well, he was doing a lot more than just talking to Daniela Ortiz Rivera.
When the truth finally came out at the August 2024 reunion, it was brutal. Aaron admitted to things he’d been lying about for weeks. The "hands down the pants" confession was the final straw.
Kaylor’s reaction was legendary. She called him "disgusting." She told him she never wanted to speak to him again. She basically quoted Taylor Swift’s "The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived" and told him he’d wasted her entire summer.

They left that reunion as far from "together" as two people can be.
The Aftermath: Blocking and Backlash
After the show, things got even weirder. Aaron didn't just go back to the UK; he basically went into hiding. He blocked Kaylor. He blocked her best friend, Liv Walker. He even blocked her little sister. Talk about a clean break, or maybe just a really messy one.
Aaron later popped up on podcasts like The Viall Files admitting he was "depressed, anxious, and sad" because of the public hate. Meanwhile, Kaylor was out here living her best single life, doing podcasts, and realizing that her "love bubble" had officially popped.
The Beyond the Villa Twist
Now, fast forward to 2025. Peacock decided we hadn't had enough drama, so they brought the Season 6 cast back for a spinoff called Love Island: Beyond the Villa.
Seeing Kaylor and Aaron back in the same room was... awkward. To say the least.
- The Vibe: Kaylor admitted she still had love for him (she actually told People she'd always find him attractive), but she knew he wasn't her person.
- The Apology: Aaron actually apologized for the gaslighting and the manipulation. It felt like a "closure" moment rather than a "let's get back together" moment.
- The Current Status: They are civil. They share the same friend group. But are they together? No. ## So, Who Does Kaylor End Up With Now?
If you're looking for the name of the guy who actually won her heart after the reality TV dust settled, look no further than Torin Dunn.
Kaylor "hard-launched" her relationship with Torin in May 2025. She posted a TikTok singing to Kesha’s "Grow a Pear" (shade? maybe) before revealing her new man.
Who is Torin? He’s a talent manager and VP at a company called Global Talent. He’s a University of Tennessee grad, so she stayed true to her love for Southern boys. They’ve been spotted all over—from Italy vacations to karaoke nights in Nashville. Fans have pointed out that he kind of looks like Aaron (the blonde hair, the vibe), but the consensus is that he treats her way better.
What About the Kendall Rumors?
For a hot minute there, people thought Kaylor might be dating her fellow islander Kendall Washington. They were constantly in each other's TikToks and were seen looking very cozy at Stagecoach 2025. Kaylor eventually shut that down, calling him her "bestie" and nothing more. It turns out they were just two friends leaning into the post-show fame.
Why This Matters for Fans
The journey Kaylor went through is basically a masterclass in "realizing your worth." In the villa, your options are limited. You’re in a vacuum. Kaylor herself said that if Aaron had done that to her in the real world, she would’ve just gone to a club with her friends and found someone else.
By the time 2026 rolled around, Kaylor had successfully transitioned from "the girl who cries on Love Island" to a confident influencer with a stable relationship.
- She stopped making excuses. The reunion was the turning point where she stopped letting Aaron's "love-bombing" work.
- She embraced the "Single" era. She didn't rush into something new immediately after the Aaron disaster.
- She found someone outside the "Villa" bubble. Torin represents a life away from the scripted drama of reality TV.
The Insight for You:
If you're still rooting for a Kaylor and Aaron reunion, it's time to let it go. Their relationship was a product of a specific environment that didn't translate to the real world. Kaylor ended up with herself first, then eventually with Torin Dunn.
