From 2015 to now, this is what every Love Island finalist has been up to over the years
They’ve all done incredibly well for themselves
Love Island has been on our screens for eight years and has produced a number finalists who have all battled it out to be crowned the winners of the series. Some Love Island finalists are often two OGs who coupled up from the very start while others are two bombshells who got to know each other and took the villa by storm. As the series is now on its 10th season, a lot of Islanders have joined and been dumped from the iconic villa over the years and only a select few make to the final. But what is every Love Island finalist up to now?
Spoiler alert, not all of the couples made it beyond the first three months of fame and managing their relationship in the spotlight, but they all gave it a fair shot.
Here’s what every single Love Island finalist is up to now.
Jess Hayes
Jess Hayes was one half of the first winners of Love Island way back in 2015. She won the show alongside Max Morley however they didn’t last very long once outside the villa and split just six months after winning the show.
Since her time on Love Island, Jess has had an array of lucrative brand deals with the likes of Miss Pap and BPerfect Cosmetics.
Nowadays, Jess is a full-time influencer and shares stunning selfies and snippets of her life to her followers on social media. Whether she’s attending movie premieres, going on cruises or spending time with her son, Jess is living her best life.

In 2019, she announced she was expecting her first child with her ex-fiancé Dan Lawry, and their son Presley was born in July of that same year. The following year, Jess announced she was pregnant with her second child but sadly suffered a miscarriage.
In 2023, Jess suffered from another miscarriage and revealed to her followers the toll it had taken on her.
“I debated posting it feels really strange to open up and feel vulnerable but you know I’m always open and honest with you all and it’s hard to pretend I’m ok as it’s been a rough week.
“But I hope that someone going through the same this might help. I was pregnant and now I’m not. I spoke about my first loss and to be honest I didn’t know I would be here again earlier this time but it still feels complete sh*t.
“It’s not really just losing a pregnancy it’s the plans you make, your vision of what that baby or child might have been like, what your family will look like and it gets taken away in a second.”
In November 2022, Jess revealed she was engaged after a whirlwind relationship with businessman Zeb. “We’d only been together for a year so I wasn’t expecting it. It was a massive surprise,” she told OK! Magazine.

Max entered the Love Island villa two weeks into the show and managed to be crowned the winner alongside Jess. After appearing on the show, Max didn’t stop his reality TV stints and went on to take part on Ex On The Beach.
Since finding fame on Love Island, Max has dated an array of reality TV stars, including Love Island’s Laura Anderson and Zara Holland. Max and Laura dated for a while before splitting up over infidelity rumours before getting back together and breaking up… again.
“It just wasn’t the right time for Laura and Max,” a source told The Sun at the time.
“They weren’t working so decided to end things sooner rather than later. They were yet to make their relationship official and weren’t boyfriend and girlfriend – but were still meant to be exclusive.”
Max later announced he had every intention of becoming a full-time model after Love Island but he now works in recruitment as an associate consultant. Max spends his time travelling the world had has spent some time in Dubai, Marbella and Reno.
In 2022, Max revealed he had become a dad. “After 109 days nearly four months he’s coming home,” he wrote on Instagram.
“It’s been such a tough time so proud of him and mum can’t believe how strong they’ve both been! Excited to spend time with my son at home. What a man Brooklyn B Morley.”
The former Love Island winner didn’t reveal who the mother of his son was and it seems as though he has kept it that way.

“Now we are more serious we have some really big rows. We really know how to wind each other up and how to annoy each other,” she told The Sun at the time.
“He seems so laid back but when he finally snaps he has a massive temper. We hit a bit of a hard place in our relationship. We weren’t moving forward, we were just moving backwards.”
Joshua is now on OnlyFans and he recently revealed he made £12,000 in minutes on one video. He now says he no longer “needs to use” the site after making so much money from it.

Cally Jane Beech has been woking hard to make it as a singer-songwriter since her Love Island days.
During a shoot of Getting Lippy, Cally said: “A couple of years ago I put out my first single and it got a really good response. Everyone was really supportive. But I went into it blind, trusted the wrong people and I got my music held from me.”
She now wants to work on “old school songs”, and sees that as a direction she wants to go into. She revealed her main goal is to “transition into music properly” and admitted her “ultimate dream” is to become a popstar.
In 2022, Cally found love with SAS: Who Dares Wins participant DJ O’Neal and they have since moved in together.

“The truth is I have been dealing with the severe baby blues and I can only say that being a mother has been one of the hardest challenges I have ever had to face in my life,” Katie explained.
“I have not spoken openly because I have wanted to protect my daughter. We have both been through a lot, she was in fact six weeks premature and was in intensive care and a couple of weeks after we discovered that she had a mark on the side of her face, which turned out to be a haemangioma, which is a vascular tumour.
“It grew exceptionally large from the time she was three weeks old to the size of a fist on the side of her face. It was affecting her eyesight because she couldn’t really see out of one eye.”

The international dressage rider Gemma had brand offers coming out of her ears after leaving the villa and she was later named as the new ambassador for PrettyLittleThing, following in the footsteps of Molly-Mae Hague.
Luca Bish
Luca Bish hasn’t been as active as the rest of his co-stars following his appearance on Love Island but he has still been capitalising on his game ever since.
Luca announced he was starting up a YouTube channel called The Bish n Chips Show and was reportedly set to make a huge £100,000 from sponsored Instagram posts after coming in second place.
Dami Hope and Indiyah Polack
Indiyah and Dami moved in together after the show and have been attending a number of events together, and have been looking good while doing it.
After the show, Indiyah signed a huge brand deal with Boots as their new beauty ambassador and later became PrettyLittleThing’s first ever marketplace ambassador. Indiyah has also remained close with Love Island and hosts the official podcast alongside Sam Thompson.
Dami hasn’t had any brand deals as of yet but has been basking in the social media glory he has received since appearing on the show.
Andrew Le Page and Tasha Ghouri
Tasha Ghouri became eBay’s first ever pre-loved ambassador after the online marketplace became Love Island’s first non fast-fashion partner. However, her success does not stop there.
Tasha went on to sign a six-figure deal with L’Oreal, becoming an official UK ambassador. She also featured in the Ann Summers’ Christmas campaign and later began working with Sisters & Seekers on their loungewear collection.
Andrew has been posting content on social media, with various sponsored posts. He and Tasha moved in together after the show and they now have a dog called Luna.
Kai Fagan and Sanam Harrinanan
Kai and Sanam have remained in a relationship since winning the show in early 2023. The pair have been putting their focus on partnerships with various charities, using their platforms to spread awareness for greater causes. Due to the nature of the show they were on, the couple were unable to return to their day jobs as a social worker and teacher and so plan to work with young people in a different way.
Lana Jenkins
Lana came in second place alongside Ron on winter Love Island 2023, however the couple have since split up despite rumours they were moving in together. Lana has since been hanging out with her co-stars, including Jessie Winter and Olivia Hawkins.
Lana has stuck to her makeup roots and often shares makeup routines on her social media pages.
Ron Hall
Ron struck up an unlikely friendship with 2022 Islander Luca Bish after the show and the pair often play golf together. Sure! Ron often posted fitness and fashion content on his Instagram and he recently became an ambassador for the Royal National Institute of Blind People.
“I am fortunate to have been given the platform and I want to use it to the best of my ability to support others in similar situations to mine and act as a role model to the younger generation,” he wrote in an Instagram post.
Samie Elishi and Tom Clare

While Samie and Tom may have split, rumours have spread that the pair are back on after a series of cryptic social media posts and sightings of the pair together.
After the show, Tom became eBay’s second pre-loved ambassador and has released his own collection with the online marketplace. Tom did return to football briefly after the show but ultimately decided to stick to social media.
After the show, Samie blew up on social media and began living her best influencer life. Shortly after the show, Samie underwent tests to determine if a lump in her throat was cancerous and she recently revealed she had the lump removed in a surgery.
“My neck is currently still healing and this first picture was taken today after I removed the bandage but I couldn’t be happier with how neat it is,” she said in an Instagram story.
“Surgery complete guys! I feel absolutely fine, no drainage was needed or anything. I’m very lucky. I’m now on rest duty but will be vlogging the recovery. Every day I receive soo many supportive messages from you guys.
“Me raising awareness has lead to some of you having this surgery and getting lumps in your necks checked. If I can help one person that’s enough.”
Shaq Muhammad and Tanya Manhenga
Shaq and Tanya are another winter Love Island couple who remained together after the show and have proved everyone wrong. Tanya signed a lucrative brand deal with a wig company after the show and the couple seem to be living their best lives, as well as striking up a friendship with Indiyah and Dami.
