These are the Love Islanders who dated another Islander after leaving the villa

Love Island couples don’t usually last that long. After the initial hype dies down, they don’t get a PrettyLittleThing campaign and they realise the only thing they have common is how fit they are, the couples quickly break up.

However, that doesn’t stop them from thinking someone else from another Love Island series could be the one. There’s a long history of Love Island crossover couples. I’m talking the ones that couple up after the villa with someone from another series or even their own series. Whether it’s just a kiss or a full blown relationship the Love Island alumni just can’t seem to date anyone outside that ITV2 circle.

And fair enough they’re all mates, they understand what it’s like to experience fame over night and they all do sponsored posts for Boohoo. What more could you ask for from a potential partner?

These are all the Love Islanders who dated Islanders from a different series to the one they were on:

Theo and Kaz

Theo Campbell, aka the man Jonny called a “gigantic bellend” from series three of Love Island, dated Kaz from series four for nine months.

Kaz and Theo got together in May 2019 and were actually a proper cute couple. Kaz was there for him when he got that champagne cork in his eye and they even had a joint activewear collection with Asda.

Theo announced their split in a radio interview and claimed Kaz was “selling him a dream”. Sounds a bit bitter to me Theo.

Wes and Arabella

Fresh after Arabella left the villa in 2019 she was getting with Wes, who was on series four of Love Island. The two reportedly went on a date to see the Lion King and by December they were so loved up they moved into a flat together.

They were both on each other’s Instagrams quite a bit and they went on a very nice looking holiday in the Maldives.

However they split up during lockdown and Wes moved in with Josh. Apparently their age difference was a big factor, I’m sorry but I just don’t believe Arabella is 31???

Michael and Ellie

Right so this one is a bit of headache. Michael, the founding member of Destiny’s Chaldish and Ellie, who dated Charlie Brake and had her stuff chucked out his window, were dating at one point.

So Ellie and Michael met on Ex on The Beach after Michael finished Love Island. They were said to have started dating in November 2019 after hitting it off during filming.

Then when Ex on The Beach aired Michael shared a cute photo of them together and Ellie commented a heart emoji underneath. And then the next day Ellie said she didn’t have a boyfriend. Basically make up your own mind if they actually dated, but my money is definitely on them coupling up.

Luke M and Lucie

One of the more recent Love Island crossover happened during lockdown. Luke M from winter Love Island and Demi broke up at the beginning of lockdown.

This meant he was free to start talking to Lucie from Love Island 2019. They’ve been together ever since and appear to live in Cornwall, where Lucie is from. The couple got engaged in Finland and have since been planning their wedding.

Max and Laura

Max Morley the OG Love Island winner started seeing Laura Anderson from series four in October 2018. However three months later they ended things for the first time.

They then got back together in May 2020 and were going to move in together. His dad was even reportedly building them a house, however they broke up again in July the same year.

Biggs and Rebecca

I know, I don’t remember the winter Love Islanders either. However these two didn’t date on the show but are now a thing.

Apparently they started dating shortly after they left the show, but then Rebecca spent a night with Michael?!?!  They got back together and appeared to be very loved up.

However, they broke up in summer 2021, with Biggs saying they wanted different things in life as the reason for their split.

Maura and Chris

Ok so they were on the same series, but this pairing was truly the best thing to happen – whilst it lasted.

Maura and Chris from Love Island 2019 announced they were together on Instagram, and they spent a good few months dating. However, they broke all our hearts a few months later when they announced the sad news they had broken up. I suppose nothing good lasts forever.

Antigoni and Jack Fowler

When Antigoni entered the Love Island villa last year, it was reported she had a number of famous connections, including one to former 2018 Love Islander Jack Fowler.

Antigoni appeared in Jack Fowler’s music video and the pair were said to be dating at one point, however neither have officially confirmed this.
