Your Guide to the 'Love Island USA' Season 8 Couples—Including Who's Still Together

Love Island USA season 8 has once again taken over pop culture, with the Peacock reality series returning for another summer. After weeks of challenges, bombshells, and plot twists, the dating show reached a fever pitch when its trademark relationship test, Casa Amor, saw several Islanders do their big one. Or, as Aniya would say, "The villa is villa-ing."

For those unfamiliar, Love Island has its own specific dating culture that has confused many newcomers. The name of the game is to get "coupled up," or officially link up, with another Islander, at which point you share a bed. Ideally, in the early days, those who are coupled up can still "explore their connections" (i.e., get to know and flirt) with other Islanders. Recouplings are ceremonies where Islanders either reaffirm their commitment or switch to a new couple, and the odd ones left single get "dumped from the villa," or eliminated from the show.

All this is easier said than done, as disagreements on whether the cast is being respectful to their couple or each other make up the bulk of the villa's drama. If the couple survives the show's trials and tribulations, they can decide to be "closed off," which means they won't explore with other people. They can also go on to become official boyfriend and girlfriend and, ideally, be voted America's favorite couple and win $100,000.

Below, we're keeping track of every new development about the villa's couples, episode by episode and vote by vote. Read on for everything to know about Love Island USA's couples as we head toward the season 8 finale.

Who's coupled up on 'Love Island USA' season 8?

Trinity Tatum and Bryce Dettloff

Coupled Up: Episode 1.

Former Flings: Trinity and Bryce both chose to explore with new bombshells Gabriel and Kayda in Episode 2, but when Gabriel and Kayda rejected them, Trinity and Bryce became a couple again. After staying together for three weeks, they were separated during Casa Amor, but the test made them realize how much they liked each other.

Recent Developments: After reuniting post-Casa, they went on their first date in Episode 24, where Bryce asked Trinity to be his girlfriend. The pair have also survived several dumpings.

Closed Off? Yes.

Melanie Moreno and Sincere Rhea

Coupled Up: Episode 1 / Episode 13

Former Flings: Sincere and Melanie first coupled up in Episode 1; though they stayed together that first week, they fought often over exploring other islanders. When bombshell Sol arrived, Sincere began exploring with her behind Melanie's back. America then voted for Sincere to leave Melanie and couple up with Sol in Episode 9, while Corbin chose to couple up with Melanie. Sincere and Melanie later chose to reunite during Episode 13's love-letter recoupling. During Casa Amor, Sincere explored with Amora, while Melanie got to know Corey.

Recent Developments: Though Sincere and Melanie chose to stay together during Episode 21's post-Casa recoupling, they've been on the rocks since, with Melanie seeing the full scope of his behavior during Movie Night. Still, Sincere chose to recouple with Melanie in Episode 27's recoupling.

Closed Off? No.

Kayda Bosse and Zach Georgiou

Coupled Up: Episode 2.

Former Flings: Zach initially coupled up with Kenzie, but he chose to explore with Kayda after admitting that Kenzie wasn't his type. Kayda and Zach stayed together for the next three weeks and even went to the Hideaway. When they were separated for Casa Amor, Zach explored with Alannah before she was removed from the show, while Kayda explored with Chay. Kayda and Zach chose to stay together during Episode 21's post-Casa Amor recoupling.

Recent Developments: Kayda and Zach have hit some rough patches post-Casa, including Kayda finding out about Alannah's removal during Movie Night. In Episode 28, Kayla was shocked when she and Zach landed in America's bottom three couples.

Closed Off? No.

Kenzie Annis and Dylan Wrona

Coupled Up: Episode 21.

Former Flings: Kenzie first coupled up with Zach in Episode 1, but he admitted that Kenzie wasn't his type and chose to explore with Kayda. While she was single, Kenzie explored with Sean and Gabriel until bombshell Corbin arrived and chose to couple up with Kenzie. Corbin and Kenzie were later split up by America's vote in Episode 9, with Kenzie placed into a new couple with Caleb. However, she and Corbin later reunited ahead of Casa Amor. After seeing Corbin on the Casa livestream, she quickly moved on by exploring with Dylan, Ronnie, and Gal.

Recent Developments: Though Kenzie chose to couple up with Dylan during Episode 21's post-Casa Amor recoupling, she also continued to explore with Gal. When Dylan expressed his hurt at her wandering eye during Movie Night, Kenzie decided to focus on their relationship.

Closed Off? No.

KC Chandler and Tierra Davis

Coupled Up: Episode 21.

Former Flings: During the opening challenge, no one chose to couple up with KC, so he was placed into a couple with the other single Islander, Aniya. The pair stayed together for the first half of the season until Casa Amor, but they often fought because of KC's interest in Sol and Aniya's inkling that he just saw her as a safe option. In Casa Amor, KC quickly began exploring with Tierra and Sydney. KC then chose to bring Tierra into the villa during Episode 21's post-Casa Amor recoupling.

Recent Developments: KC and Tierra have been smooth sailing since they came back to the villa. In Episode 28, they landed among the four most-compatible couples, based on America's vote.

Closed Off? No.

Aniya Harvey and Carl Schmidt

Former Flings: During the opening challenge, Aniya showed interest in Sincere, but she was left single and automatically paired with KC. They stayed together for the entire show until Casa Amor, but they often fought because of KC's interest in Sol and Aniya's inkling that he just saw her as a safe option. During Casa Amor, Aniya explored with Carl all week, but she ultimately chose to stay with KC. Even though KC returned to the villa with Tierra, due to her choice, Aniya was left single, and Carl was dumped from the villa.

Recent Developments: Immediately after Casa ended, America voted for Carl to return to the villa for a second chance. He said he would have walls up after getting dumped, but he and Aniya still returned to where they left off pretty quickly. Carl chose to couple up with Aniya in Episode 27, and the pair have survived both America and the islanders' votes for the villa's most compatible couple.

Closed Off? No

Who was recently dumped on 'Love Island USA' season 8?

Jen Terry, Gal Tshnieder, and Amora Cacheé Robinson

Coupled Up: Episode 21.

Former Flings: After Jen entered the villa as a bombshell in Episode 6, America voted for her to couple up with Gabriel. Jen and Gabriel stayed together until Episode 14, when they landed in the bottom three couples of America's vote, and the safe female Islanders chose to dump Gabriel from the villa. Once in Casa Amor, Jen quickly developed a crush on Gal, though she was upset when he also explored with Kenzie.

Though Jen chose to couple up with Gal during Episode 21's post-Casa Amor recoupling, it soon became clear that he wasn't into her, and he broke things off in Episode 24. After Kenzie decided to focus on her connection with Dylan, Gal began to chat with Amora, who had explored with Sincere during Casa before America voted to bring her into the villa for a second chance.

Sent Home: In Episode 27's recoupling (released on July 3), Gal chose to recouple with Amora, and single Jen was dumped from the villa. Immediately after, the Islanders had to choose two couples who were the least compatible. Gal and Amora received the most votes and were then dumped from the villa.

Caleb McDaniel and Jaiden Bacciocco

Coupled Up: Episode 21.

Former Flings: After Caleb entered the villa as a bombshell in Episode 6, America voted for him to couple up with Kenzie. However, Kenzie chose to re-couple with Corbin in Episode 13, leaving Caleb single. Once in Casa Amor, he briefly showed interest in Parmida before hitting it off with Jaiden. Caleb chose to bring Jaiden into the villa during Episode 21's post-Casa Amor recoupling, but the pair soon began fighting due to a lack of communication.

Sent Home: In Episode 27 (released on July 3), the Islanders had to choose two couples who were the least compatible. Caleb and Jaiden received the second-most votes and were then dumped from the villa.

Corbin Mims and Parmida Keshani

Coupled Up: Episode 21.

Former Flings: When Corbin arrived as a bombshell in week 1, he chose to couple up with Kenzie. Even though America's first vote split them, they later chose to recouple in Episode 13. However, Corbin quickly decided to explore with Parmida once he got to Casa Amor. Corbin chose to bring Parmida into the villa during Episode 21's post-Casa Amor recoupling, and in Episode 24, the couple closed off.

Sent Home: In Episode 28 (released on July 5), Corbin and Parmida landed in the bottom three couples of America's vote. The Islanders then chose to save Kayda and Zach, so Corbin and Parmida were dumped from the villa.
