Love Island, the reality TV show that debuted in the U.K. in 2002, has had some couples that have stood the test of time. Every season, a group of people is isolated in a villa and must pair off in order to stay on the show. Season 7 winners Millie Court and Liam Reardon not only left Spain in first place, but also in a relationship. Although viewers were expecting a proposal from Liam, he clarified that he didn’t have any plans except to ask Millie to be his girlfriend.
Another couple from Love Island Season 7, Teddy Soares and Faye Winter, also found love on the show. The pair shared a secret moment in the pantry that didn’t make it into the show. Faye revealed in a post-show interview that she said “I love you” first, to which Teddy smiled and was taken back. Teddy clarified that “nobody knows this” because it happened after their families came in.
Over the years, other couples from Love Island U.K. have stayed together. Jess and Dom Lever from Season 3 are still together and expecting their second child. Nathan Massey and Cara De La Hoyde from Season 2 got married and have two children. Olivia Buckland and Alex Bowen from Season 2 also got married and have a son.
